Quality Web Hosting

There are various varieties of web hosting plans suitable for different web pages in regard to the system resources or the web hosting platform they require. To select the most proper web hosting service for your web site, you need to judge what server-side software it needs, how many daily hits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may have to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Benefits

The most suitable option for small scale web pages with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this form of hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which diminishes the overall cost per individual seriously. There are diverse web hosting packages varying from one web hosting supplier to another, delivering different amounts of data storage and monthly traffic, different e-mail address account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can purchase an account that will provide the specifications your website indeed demands. You will not have to pay lots of money for a plan you will not utilize, or end up with a small size account that cannot host the web portal. We, at C4u Hosting, offer a wide selection of web hosting solutions appropriate for personal or small business pages that even come with pre-installed script-driven platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it easier. If you begin with a less powerful plan and you need more functionalities, moving to a more advanced account involves just a click.

Shared web hosting - Drawbacks

A weakness of the shared website hosting solution is that the servers have some software installed on them and you cannot install new software applications. Certain websites, especially online storefronts, demand software applications to be installed on the server for them to perform, and with a shared website hosting account, you can activate only software platforms that do not demand full server root access.

Virtual Private Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For sites that need full server root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even millions of visits per day, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual web hosting server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated machine and it behaves in absolutely the same way.

VPS Servers

Both platforms generally provide complete server root access and can be restarted via a software program by the client, independently from the web hosting supplier. Similar to the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web server hosting packages include diverse specs depending on what the hosting vendor offers. A private virtual server hosting account has guaranteed hard disk storage, random access memory and central processing unit usage quotas that can occasionally be extended for short spans of time if there are spare resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware architecture it is utilizing, and it can be upgraded by changing or adding components. A VPS server is simpler to administer as it offers a virtualization tool, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, explore stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated hosting server is more intricate, so such a package would rather be resorted to by qualified customers.

Dedicated Web Servers

Still, some web hosts offer managed dedicated hosting solutions where they execute server management tasks on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the package or an extra feature.

Prior To Opting...

Opting for the top hosting plan is crucial as it can influence the proper performance of a online portal. Prior to picking a plan, compare the pros and cons, investigate thoroughly all the preconditions for the website to run properly, particularly if it is script-powered.
