Top Hosting

There are various varieties of hosting accounts suitable for different web pages with regard to the system resources or the hosting platform they demand. To select the most proper hosting service for your site, you need to calculate what server-side software applications it requires, how many visits per day you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special needs that may have to be answered.

Shared website hosting - Positive Signs

The most optimal alternative for small scale websites with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting package. With this form of web space hosting, each user pays only for their account, which minimizes the overall cost per user seriously. There are diverse web hosting plans differing from one web hosting company to another, furnishing different amounts of server storage space and traffic, different e-mail quotas and so on. The good point is that you can obtain a plan that will offer the specifications your website indeed demands. You will not have to pay lots of money for a plan you will not make use of, or wind up with a small size plan that cannot host the online portal. We, at Blue Domain Hosting, offer a wide selection of hosting packages suitable for private or small business web sites that even provide pre-activated script-powered systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you start with a less powerful plan and you demand more features, moving to a high-end package demands just a click of the mouse.

Shared Web Hosting - Negative Points

A negative side of the shared web hosting platform is that the servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to install new software platforms. Certain web pages, especially online shops, require software applications to be present on the server for them to run, and with a shared website hosting environment, you can activate only software programs that do not demand full server root access.

Virtual Private Web Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For web sites that demand full root access, or if your website has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of daily visits, what you require is a VPS or a dedicated server. A virtual private web server is a software imitation of a dedicated hosting server and it behaves in absolutely the same manner.

Virtual Private Web Hosting Servers

Both services traditionally provide full server root access and can be restarted through a software tool by the user, autonomously from the hosting supplier. Akin to the shared web hosting accounts, the VPS and the dedicated web hosting server plans come with different specs based on what the hosting provider has to offer. A virtual private web server account has guaranteed web storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can at times be increased for short periods of time in case there are spare system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware architecture it is availing of, and it can be revamped by changing or appending components. A virtual hosting server is simpler to tackle as it involves virtualization software, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, check stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such a solution would rather be used by qualified users.

Dedicated Servers

However, some hosting corporations offer managed dedicated web server hosting solutions where they execute dedicated server management procedures on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the package or an additional option.

Prior To Choosing...

Opting for the top hosting plan is crucial as it can influence the stable functioning of a online portal. Before picking an account, weigh the pros and cons, appraise carefully all the preconditions for the web site to perform properly, particularly if it is script-based.
