Quality Shared Hosting

There are different types of shared hosting packages appropriate for different websites in regard to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they need. To pick the most appropriate shared hosting service for your site, you need to calculate what server-side software applications it needs, how many visits per day you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared web hosting - Privileges

The most relevant choice for small scale web pages with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting solution. With this type of website hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which minimizes the overall price per user significantly. There are various web hosting packages varying from one hosting company to another, delivering different quotas of disk storage and traffic, different email box account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can get a plan that will have the features your web page actually needs. You will not have to pay a lot of cash for an account you will not utilize, or end up with a small package that cannot host the site. We, at Outraged Hosting, offer an enormous variety of shared hosting packages appropriate for personal or small business pages that even provide pre-activated script-powered systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things easier. If you start with a less powerful plan and you require more features, moving to a more feature-rich package demands only a click.

Shared Website Hosting - Negative Signs

A weak side of the shared website hosting platform is that the servers have some software installed on them and you cannot install new software applications. Specific online portals, chiefly online storefronts, require applications to be present on the web server for them to work, and with a shared hosting account, you can activate only software that does not demand full root-level access.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For web portals that demand root access, or if your web page has many 1000's or even millions of daily visits, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual web server is a software imitation of a dedicated server and it operates in an exactly identical way.

Private Virtual Servers

Both platforms typically provide full root-level access and can be rebooted via a software platform by the client, autonomously from the web hosting supplier. Analogous to the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated hosting server plans have diverse functionalities based on what the hosting supplier offers. A private virtual web server plan contains guaranteed data storage, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be expanded for short spans of time provided that there are spare system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is making use of, and it can be upgraded by changing or appending components. A private virtual web server is easier to tackle as it includes a virtualization software platform, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, explore statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more elaborate, so such a solution would rather be resorted to by skilled users.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Nonetheless, given web hosts offer managed dedicated web server hosting solutions where they complete dedicated server management tasks instead of the customer. This can be a part of package or an additional service.
