Quality Shared Web Hosting

There are different types of shared web hosting accounts suitable for different web pages with regard to the resources or the shared web hosting platform they need. To choose the best shared web hosting service for your site, you must judge what server-side software it needs, how many daily visits you anticipate at the start and in the future, as well as any other special needs that may have to be met.

The most proper choice for small scale websites with a few hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting solution. With this form of hosting, each user pays only for their account, which lowers the overall cost per client drastically. There are different web hosting packages varying from one web hosting vendor to another, providing different quotas of server storage and monthly traffic, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can obtain a plan that will provide the specs your web portal indeed demands. You will not have to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not make use of, or end up with a small package that cannot accommodate the site. We, at DDD Web Services, offer a huge choice of shared web hosting plans suitable for personal or small business web portals that even offer pre-activated script-based platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you commence with a low grade package and you need more resources, moving to a more powerful package takes just a mouse click.

Shared Hosting - Negative Points

A negative side of the shared web hosting solution is that the hosting servers have some software programs installed on them and you are unable to install additional software applications. Given web sites, mainly online shops, require applications to be installed on the hosting server for them to function, and with a shared web hosting platform, you can install only software platforms that do not need complete root-level access.

Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For sites that demand complete root access, or if your web portal has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of daily viewers, what you require is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated server web hosting. A virtual web hosting server is a software emulation of a dedicated hosting server and it acts in an exactly identical manner.

VPS Servers

Both platforms usually come with complete root-level access and can be restarted through a software interface by the customer, independently from the web hosting supplier. Akin to the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated server web hosting plans include different specs based on what the web hosting provider offers. A private virtual web server hosting plan has guaranteed hard disk space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be increased for short spells of time in case there are available resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is making use of, and it can be revamped by altering or adding components. A private virtual web hosting server is simpler to cope with as it arrives with a virtualization panel, which can be used to reboot it, to install software applications, monitor statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such an account would rather be resorted to by knowledgeable customers.

Dedicated Servers

Yet, given web hosting firms offer managed dedicated server hosting services where they run dedicated web server administration assignments on behalf of the client. This can be included in the plan or an additional upgrade.
