Quality Web Hosting

There are various varieties of web hosting packages appropriate for different web portals in terms of the system resources or the web hosting environment they need. To pick the most optimal web hosting service for your website, you have to reckon what server-side software it requires, how many daily visits you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may have to be met.

Shared web hosting - Dividends

The most optimal alternative for small web sites with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this type of web hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which diminishes the overall cost per client considerably. There are various web hosting packages differing from one web hosting company to another, delivering different amounts of hard disk storage space and web traffic, different mail quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can obtain a plan that will provide the specifications your web portal actually demands. You will not have to pay a lot of money for an account you will not make use of, or end up with a small account that cannot shelter the web page. We, at Hosting Europe, offer a huge variety of web hosting plans suitable for personal or small business websites that even include pre-installed script-powered systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you kick off with a low-end account and you need more system resources, moving to a high-end plan takes only a mouse click.

Shared Website Hosting - Negative Sides

A negative aspect of the shared hosting solution is that the hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to activate new software programs. Specific websites, particularly web stores, demand applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared hosting environment, you can activate solely software programs that do not demand root-level access.

VPS Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For online portals that request full server root access, or if your web page has many thousands or even millions of daily visits, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual web server is a software simulation of a dedicated machine and it works in an exactly identical manner.

Virtual Private Web Hosting Servers

Both platforms generally offer root privileges and can be rebooted via a software tool by the user, independently from the hosting provider. Just like the shared hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web hosting server plans include diverse characteristics depending on what the hosting company offers. A VPS web server account contains guaranteed server space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be expanded for brief spells of time on condition that there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware it is utilizing, and it can be upgraded by changing or adding components. A VPS is easier to administer as it offers a virtualization platform, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, check statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated hosting server is more complex, so such an account would rather be resorted to by competent customers.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nevertheless, some web hosting suppliers offer managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they run dedicated web server management procedures on behalf of the client. This can be a part of plan or an extra upgrade.
