Best Hosting

There are different types of hosting plans appropriate for different web sites in regard to the system resources or the hosting environment they need. To choose the most proper hosting service for your website, you have to calculate what server-side software it needs, how many visits per day you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other specific requirements that may have to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Positive Aspects

The best option for small sized web portals with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this form of hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which lowers the overall cost per customer seriously. There are different web hosting plans varying from one web hosting provider to another, offering different amounts of storage space and monthly traffic, different e-mailbox account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can get a plan that will have the resources your web page really requires. You will not have to pay lots of cash for a plan you will not utilize, or end up with a small package that cannot accommodate the web portal. We, at ThreeMen.Net, offer a huge variety of hosting plans suitable for private or small business websites that even offer pre-installed script-powered systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things easier. If you kick off with a low-end plan and you demand more resources, moving to a better account takes only a click.

Shared website hosting - Downsides

A shortcoming of the shared web hosting environment is that the hosting servers have some software installed on them and you cannot activate new software applications. Specific online portals, particularly online storefronts, demand applications to be installed on the web hosting server for them to perform, and with a shared website hosting solution, you can install only software programs that do not request root access.

VPS Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For portals that demand complete root-level access, or if your website has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily hits, what you require is a VPS or a dedicated server. A VPS web server is a software imitation of a dedicated web hosting server and it runs in a strictly identical way.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers

Both platforms generally come with full server root privileges and can be restarted via a software tool by the customer, independently from the web hosting provider. Analogous to the shared website hosting plans, the VPS and the dedicated server packages come with different characteristics depending on what the web hosting supplier offers. A VPS server account has guaranteed server storage space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can occasionally be enhanced for brief spans of time on condition that there are available resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be configured by altering or adding components. A private virtual web hosting server is easier to manage as it comprises a virtualization tool, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, check stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such a package would rather be used by competent clients.

Dedicated Servers

However, some web hosting providers provide managed dedicated hosting solutions where they perform web server management operations on behalf of the client. This can be included in the package or an extra option.

Before You Opt...
