Top Shared Hosting

There are different kinds of shared hosting services appropriate for different websites in relation to the resources or the shared hosting environment they demand. To select the most proper shared hosting service for your website, you must estimate what server-side software it needs, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific demands that may need to be satisfied.

Shared web hosting - Positive Sides

The most optimal choice for small scale websites with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this type of web hosting, each user pays only for their account, which diminishes the overall cost per client drastically. There are different web hosting solutions differing from one web hosting firm to another, furnishing different amounts of disk space and web traffic, different email quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can pay for an account that will offer the features your online portal indeed needs. You will not need to pay plenty of cash for an account you will not make use of, or wind up with a small sized plan that cannot accommodate the website. We, at Red 1 Rebel, offer a wide selection of shared hosting accounts suitable for private or small business sites that even come with pre-activated script-based systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things easier. If you kick off with a low priced package and you need more resources, moving to a more feature-rich plan takes only a mouse click.

Shared web hosting - Downsides

A drawback of the shared hosting platform is that the web hosting servers have some software programs installed on them and you cannot install new software programs. Certain web portals, particularly web storefronts, demand software applications to be present on the web server for them to work, and with a shared web hosting solution, you can install only software that does not request server root access.

Virtual Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For websites that require full root access, or if your website has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily viewers, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS hosting server is a software simulation of a dedicated hosting server and it runs in an exactly identical way.

Private Virtual Web Servers

Both services normally give root privileges and can be rebooted through a software interface by the user, autonomously from the web hosting company. Much like the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated hosting accounts involve different specs based on what the hosting provider has to offer. A private virtual web hosting server package has guaranteed web storage space, RAM and CPU quotas that can sometimes be expanded for short spells of time provided that there are spare system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is using, and it can be upgraded by changing or appending components. A virtual private web hosting server is simpler to handle as it comprises a virtualization software platform, which can be used to reboot it, to install software applications, explore statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated hosting server is more complicated, so such a package would rather be resorted to by tech-savvy clients.

Dedicated Servers

However, certain hosting vendors provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they execute dedicated server management assignments on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an extra upgrade.
