Quality Web Hosting

There are various types of web hosting plans suitable for different websites in relation to the resources or the web hosting platform they demand. To pick the most proper web hosting service for your site, you have to reckon what server-side software applications it requires, how many visits per day you anticipate at the start and in the future, as well as any other specific demands that may need to be met.

Shared web hosting - Strong Points

The most adequate option for small scale websites with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting solution. With this type of website hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which lowers the overall price per user radically. There are various web hosting plans varying from one hosting company to another, offering different amounts of hard disk space and web traffic, different e-mail address account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can obtain a plan that will include the specs your site really demands. You will not need to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not use, or end up with a small scale account that cannot accommodate the online portal. We, at 9tekhost.net, offer an enormous selection of web hosting plans appropriate for private or small business websites that even include pre-installed script-based platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you start with a basic account and you need more resources, moving to a more powerful plan takes only a mouse click.

Shared Web Hosting - Weak Sides

A shortcoming of the shared web hosting platform is that the servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software. Given web sites, mainly online storefronts, request applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can install solely software programs that do not require root-level access.

Private Virtual Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For web portals that need server root access, or if your website has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily visits, what you demand is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A VPS is a virtual imitation of a dedicated hosting server and it acts in an exactly identical manner.

Private Virtual Servers

Both solutions generally come with full server root privileges and can be restarted through a software interface by the customer, autonomously from the hosting company. Like the shared web hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web server hosting accounts comprise diverse functionalities based on what the hosting provider has to offer. A private virtual web server hosting account has guaranteed disk storage, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can occasionally be boosted for short spells of time in case there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware equipment it is making use of, and it can be revved up by changing or adding components. A Virtual Private Server is easier to cope with as it offers a virtualization software platform, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, check stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such an account would rather be utilized by competent clients.

Dedicated Servers

However, certain web hosting providers offer managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they complete dedicated web hosting server administration procedures instead of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra feature.
