Quality Web Hosting

There are various kinds of web hosting plans appropriate for different websites in regard to the resources or the web hosting platform they need. To pick the most proper web hosting service for your online portal, you need to judge what server-side software applications it demands, how many daily hits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared website hosting - Privileges

The most appropriate choice for small sized websites with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this type of webspace hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which lowers the overall cost per individual drastically. There are different web hosting accounts differing from one web hosting vendor to another, furnishing different quotas of server space and traffic, different email box account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can order a plan that will offer the specs your web site actually requires. You will not have to pay lots of money for a plan you will not utilize, or end up with a small size package that cannot host the web site. We, at SunCloud Hosting, offer a huge variety of web hosting accounts appropriate for personal or small business sites that even provide pre-installed script-powered systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you commence with a low-end account and you need more functionalities, upgrading to a better package requires only a click of the mouse.

Shared Hosting - Shortcomings

A disadvantage of the shared website hosting environment is that the web hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot activate additional software. Specific web sites, mainly online shops, request software applications to be activated on the hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting package, you can activate solely software programs that do not require full root access.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For web portals that request complete server root access, or if your web page has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of visits per day, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A VPS hosting server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated machine and it runs in precisely the same way.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers

Both services commonly give complete root-level access and can be rebooted through a software interface by the client, independently from the hosting provider. Akin to the shared web hosting plans, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web hosting accounts comprise diverse features based on what the hosting provider has to offer. A private virtual web server hosting account offers guaranteed hard disk space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be extended for brief stretches of time if there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware equipment it is utilizing, and it can be configured by changing or appending components. A virtual private web hosting server is simpler to tackle as it offers a virtualization console, which can be utilized to restart it, to install applications, examine statistics, etc. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more complex, so such a plan would rather be resorted to by skilled customers.

Dedicated Web Servers

Yet, given hosting companies provide managed dedicated server web hosting services where they implement server management tasks instead of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an extra upgrade.
