Quality Website Hosting

There are various kinds of website hosting plans suitable for different web portals with regard to the resources or the website hosting platform they demand. To select the most relevant website hosting service for your website, you have to estimate what server-side software applications it demands, how many daily hits you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared Web Hosting - Positive Signs

The most adequate option for small web portals with several hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this form of web site hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which decreases the overall cost per individual seriously. There are different web hosting solutions varying from one web hosting supplier to another, delivering different quotas of hard disk space and traffic, different email account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can pay for a plan that will provide the resources your web page actually demands. You will not need to pay plenty of money for an account you will not avail of, or wind up with a small size plan that cannot accommodate the site. We, at The Hosting Dudes, offer an extensive collection of website hosting solutions appropriate for personal or small business web sites that even provide pre-activated script-based platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you commence with a less powerful account and you need more system resources, upgrading to a more powerful plan demands just a click.

Shared web hosting - Shortcomings

A weak side of the shared web hosting platform is that the hosting servers have some software programs installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software programs. Some online portals, mainly online stores, require applications to be activated on the web hosting server for them to run, and with a shared web hosting platform, you can install only software that does not require full root-level access.

VPS Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For portals that need server root access, or if your web page has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily viewers, what you require is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated web hosting. A virtual hosting server is a software imitation of a dedicated web hosting server and it acts in absolutely the same way.

Private Virtual Hosting Servers

Both environments commonly come with complete root access and can be rebooted through a software platform by the user, independently from the hosting company. Similar to the shared hosting plans, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated server web hosting accounts involve diverse specifications based on what the web hosting provider has to offer. A VPS web hosting plan offers guaranteed storage space, random access memory and central processing unit usage quotas that can sometimes be boosted for brief spans of time on condition that there are free system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware equipment it is using, and it can be configured by changing or appending components. A virtual hosting server is easier to handle as it includes a virtualization platform, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, examine stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more elaborate, so such a plan would rather be used by competent customers.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nevertheless, given web hosts offer managed dedicated server hosting services where they run web server management tasks on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the package or an extra upgrade.
