Top Web Hosting

There are various varieties of web hosting solutions appropriate for different websites in regard to the system resources or the web hosting platform they require. To pick the most suitable web hosting service for your site, you need to estimate what server-side software it needs, how many visits per day you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special needs that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared Web Hosting - Upsides

The most proper alternative for small scale web pages with several hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting account. With this type of website hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which decreases the overall cost per individual significantly. There are different web hosting accounts varying from one web hosting firm to another, furnishing different amounts of data space and traffic, different e-mail address account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can purchase a plan that will have the resources your online portal actually demands. You will not need to pay lots of money for a plan you will not utilize, or end up with a small sized account that cannot accommodate the website. We, at EU SuperHost, offer a vast assortment of web hosting accounts suitable for personal or small business web sites that even provide pre-activated script-driven platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you start with a basic plan and you need more system resources, upgrading to a more powerful package demands only a click.

Shared website hosting - Drawbacks

A disadvantage of the shared website hosting environment is that the servers have some software programs installed on them and you cannot install new software applications. Certain web sites, chiefly online shops, request applications to be available on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting package, you can install only software platforms that do not require server root access.

Virtual Private Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For websites that demand root access, or if your web page has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visits per day, what you demand is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A VPS web hosting server is a software simulation of a dedicated server and it works in an exactly identical way.

Virtual Private Servers

Both solutions typically give full root privileges and can be rebooted via a software platform by the user, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Just like the shared web hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web hosting accounts include different characteristics depending on what the web hosting provider offers. A VPS web server hosting plan has guaranteed web storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can occasionally be extended for short periods of time provided that there are spare system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is making use of, and it can be configured by changing or appending components. A private virtual web server is simpler to manipulate as it arrives with virtualization software, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, examine statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated server is more intricate, so such a solution would rather be used by practiced users.

Dedicated Servers

Nonetheless, given hosting companies offer managed dedicated hosting solutions where they perform server management assignments on behalf of the client. This can be a part of package or an additional upgrade.
