Best Hosting

There are different sorts of hosting accounts appropriate for different sites in relation to the system resources or the hosting environment they need. To pick the most adequate hosting service for your web portal, you have to estimate what server-side software applications it needs, how many daily visits you anticipate at the start and in the future, as well as any other special requirements that may need to be covered.

Shared Website Hosting - Virtues

The most optimal choice for small sized online portals with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting plan. With this form of site hosting, each client pays only for their account, which minimizes the total price per individual seriously. There are various web hosting packages varying from one hosting corporation to another, delivering different quotas of web storage and web traffic, different electronic mail account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can get a plan that will have the specifications your web site indeed needs. You will not have to pay a lot of money for a package you will not avail of, or wind up with a small scale plan that cannot host the website. We, at Wight Hosting, offer a huge choice of hosting packages appropriate for private or small business web portals that even include pre-activated script-powered systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you kick off with a low-cost package and you demand more features, upgrading to a more advanced plan involves just a click of the mouse.

Shared web hosting - Shortcomings

A disadvantage 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 applications. Given web pages, particularly online storefronts, require applications to be available on the web hosting server for them to function, and with a shared web hosting account, you can activate solely software platforms that do not need full root access.

Private Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For web portals that demand complete root-level access, or if your site has many 1000's or even millions of daily visits, what you demand is a VPS or a dedicated package. A virtual web hosting server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated machine and it performs in a strictly identical way.

Virtual Hosting Servers

Both solutions typically provide complete root access and can be restarted via a software platform by the user, independently from the web hosting supplier. Like the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS and the dedicated hosting server plans come with different specifications depending on what the hosting company has to offer. A private virtual hosting server account offers guaranteed hard disk storage, random access memory and central processing unit usage quotas that can sometimes be increased for brief intervals of time provided that there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is availing of, and it can be upgraded by altering or appending components. A virtual private web hosting server is simpler to cope with as it arrives with a virtualization panel, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, check statistics, and so on. The management of a dedicated web server is more complex, so such a solution would rather be utilized by competent clients.

Dedicated Servers

Still, given hosting suppliers offer managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they perform hosting server management tasks instead of the client. This can be included in the package or an additional upgrade.
