Quality Web Hosting

There are various varieties of web hosting packages appropriate for different web sites in regard to the resources or the web hosting platform they need. To choose the best web hosting service for your website, you have to judge what server-side software programs it requires, how many daily hits you expect at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared Website Hosting - Advantages

The best alternative for small scale sites with a few hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting package. With this form of site hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which diminishes the overall cost per individual seriously. There are diverse web hosting packages differing from one web host to another, offering different amounts of data storage space and bandwidth, different email address account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can order a package that will provide the resources your online portal in fact requires. You will not need to pay lots of cash for an account you will not make use of, or wind up with a small scale package that cannot host the online portal. We, at Raidvps, offer a huge selection of web hosting solutions suitable for private or small business sites that even come with pre-installed script-powered systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you begin with a cheaper package and you demand more resources, moving to a better package demands only a click of the mouse.

Shared Hosting - Downsides

A shortcoming of the shared web hosting solution is that the servers have some software programs installed on them and you cannot activate new software applications. Certain web sites, especially web stores, need applications to be present on the hosting server for them to run, and with a shared website hosting account, you can install solely software that does not demand root-level access.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For web sites that demand root-level access, or if your site has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visits per day, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual private web hosting server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated solution and it functions in strictly the same manner.

VPS Servers

Both services normally offer full root access and can be restarted through a software platform by the customer, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Akin to the shared web hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting packages have different specifications depending on what the hosting company has to offer. A private virtual web hosting server account contains guaranteed web storage space, random access memory and central processing unit usage quotas that can sometimes be enhanced for brief spans of time on condition that there are available resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware equipment it is using, and it can be configured by altering or adding components. A private virtual server is simpler to administer as it includes virtualization software, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, explore stats, etc. The administration of a dedicated web server is more complex, so such a plan would rather be resorted to by trained customers.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

However, some web hosting suppliers provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they execute dedicated web hosting server management assignments instead of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an additional upgrade.
