Quality Web Hosting

There are different kinds of web hosting plans suitable for different web pages in regard to the system resources or the web hosting environment they require. To pick the most suitable web hosting service for your web portal, you have to judge what server-side software applications it demands, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific requirements that may have to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Benefits

The most proper option for small scale websites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting plan. With this form of web hosting, each client pays only for their account, which lowers the total price per user markedly. There are diverse web hosting solutions varying from one web hosting supplier to another, furnishing different quotas of hard disk storage space and monthly bandwidth, different e-mail address account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can buy a plan that will offer the resources your site really requires. You will not need to pay plenty of cash for a package you will not make use of, or wind up with a small size account that cannot shelter the web portal. We, at OMEGA Hosting, offer a wide collection of web hosting solutions appropriate for private or small business web pages that even provide pre-installed script-driven systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you commence with a basic plan and you need more system resources, upgrading to a more feature-rich plan requires only a click of the mouse.

Shared website hosting - Disadvantages

A drawback of the shared web hosting platform is that the web hosting servers have some software platforms installed on them and you are unable to install additional software applications. Some web pages, mainly online storefronts, demand applications to be available on the web server for them to work, and with a shared website hosting environment, you can activate solely software applications that do not demand complete root access.

Private Virtual Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For web pages that demand complete root access, or if your web portal has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of visits per day, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A private virtual hosting server is a software emulation of a dedicated web server and it runs in exactly the same way.

Private Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions commonly include server root access and can be rebooted through a software program by the user, autonomously from the web hosting supplier. Just like the shared web hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated server plans sport diverse functionalities depending on what the hosting company offers. A virtual web server account has guaranteed disk space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be boosted for short periods of time in case there are unused system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware equipment it is utilizing, and it can be revved up by altering or appending components. A virtual private web server is simpler to handle as it involves a virtualization console, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, explore statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more elaborate, so such a package would rather be used by proficient customers.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Still, given hosting suppliers provide managed dedicated server hosting services where they run web server administration operations on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the plan or an additional option.
