Quality Shared Hosting

There are various sorts of shared hosting packages suitable for different web portals when it comes to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they require. To pick the most relevant shared hosting service for your site, you must judge what server-side software programs it requires, how many daily hits you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special needs that may need to be covered.

Shared Web Hosting - Positive Signs

The most relevant choice for small sized online portals with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting solution. With this form of web hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which minimizes the overall cost per person significantly. There are different web hosting packages varying from one web hosting supplier to another, delivering different quotas of web storage space and bandwidth, different e-mail account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can buy a package that will offer the resources your web site actually requires. You will not have to pay a lot of money for a plan you will not avail of, or end up with a small sized account that cannot host the site. We, at Liontivo, offer an extensive choice of shared hosting plans suitable for personal or small business websites that even provide pre-installed script-based platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you start with a low priced plan and you demand more resources, upgrading to a better package involves only a mouse click.

Shared website hosting - Drawbacks

A drawback of the shared web hosting platform is that the web hosting servers have some software programs installed on them and you are unable to install additional software applications. Some web portals, mainly web stores, demand applications to be activated on the server for them to perform, and with a shared website hosting package, you can install only software platforms that do not need full root-level access.

Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For portals that require complete root-level access, or if your website has many thousands or even millions of daily visits, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual private web hosting server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated solution and it operates in strictly the same way.

Private Virtual Web Servers

Both platforms generally offer server root access and can be rebooted through a software tool by the client, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Like the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server web hosting accounts involve diverse functionalities depending on what the web hosting company has to offer. A VPS web server plan has guaranteed disk space, RAM and CPU quotas that can occasionally be enlarged for short spells of time if there are available system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated server, the only limit is the hardware architecture it is making use of, and it can be revamped by altering or adding components. A Virtual Private Server is simpler to cope with as it involves a virtualization console, which can be used to reboot it, to install software applications, monitor statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web server is more intricate, so such an account would rather be used by practiced users.

Dedicated Web Servers

Yet, certain hosts provide managed dedicated server web hosting services where they complete web server management procedures instead of the client. This can be a part of plan or an additional upgrade.
