There are various kinds of shared web hosting solutions suitable for different sites in relation to the system resources or the shared web hosting environment they need. To select the most relevant shared web hosting service for your website, you must estimate what server-side software applications it needs, how many hits per day you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special requirements that may need to be met.

Shared web hosting - Positive Signs

The most appropriate alternative for small scale sites with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this type of site hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which decreases the overall price per person drastically. There are different web hosting accounts varying from one company to another, supplying different quotas of data storage space and traffic, different mailbox account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can purchase an account that will include the specs your site indeed requires. You will not need to pay a lot of money for an account you will not avail of, or wind up with a small package that cannot host the site. We, at OzeVision Web Hosting, offer a huge choice of shared web hosting solutions suitable for private or small business web pages that even offer pre-installed script-powered platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things easier. If you start with a low-price package and you need more system resources, upgrading to a more advanced account demands just a click of the mouse.

Shared Website Hosting - Drawbacks

A drawback of the shared website hosting platform is that the hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot activate new software programs. Some web pages, especially web shops, request applications to be activated on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared website hosting platform, you can install only software programs that do not need full root access.

Private Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Servers

For web portals that need root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily hits, what you demand is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated server web hosting. A virtual web server is a software emulation of a dedicated server and it functions in absolutely the same manner.

Virtual Hosting Servers

Both platforms typically give root access and can be rebooted through a software platform by the user, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Analogous to the shared web hosting plans, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated server accounts comprise different characteristics based on what the hosting provider has to offer. A virtual web server hosting package includes guaranteed storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can occasionally be increased for short stretches of time on condition that there are unused resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is using, and it can be upgraded by altering or appending components. A Virtual Private Server is simpler to administer as it involves virtualization software, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, explore statistics, etc. The administration of a dedicated server is more intricate, so such a solution would rather be utilized by skilled users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

However, some web hosts provide managed dedicated server hosting services where they perform dedicated server administration operations instead of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra feature.

Before You Reach a Decision...

Picking the top hosting plan is important as it can have an effect on the stable work of a web page. Before settling on a package, compare the pros and cons, examine completely all the requirements for the web portal to operate properly, especially if it is script-driven. And if you are still not sure which one is the best shared web hosting service for you, ask our live chat operators or call us - our sales reps will be happy to assist you and answer all your questions.
