Quality Shared Hosting

There are various sorts of shared hosting plans appropriate for different web sites in relation to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they demand. To choose the most adequate shared hosting service for your website, you need to reckon what server-side software programs it demands, how many visits per day you anticipate at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may need to be answered.

Shared web hosting - Positive Signs

The best option for small sized web portals with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this type of web space hosting, each client pays only for their account, which diminishes the overall price per customer seriously. There are various web hosting packages varying from one web host to another, providing different amounts of disk storage and web traffic, different e-mailbox account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can buy an account that will provide the specifications your web site indeed requires. You will not have to pay lots of money for an account you will not use, or end up with a small plan that cannot shelter the web site. We, at Tiger Hosts, offer an extensive selection of shared hosting accounts suitable for personal or small business sites that even provide pre-activated script-driven systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you start with a low priced plan and you require more resources, moving to a high-end package demands only a click.

Shared Web Hosting - Downsides

A negative aspect of the shared web hosting platform is that the hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to install additional software programs. Given sites, especially web storefronts, need applications to be installed on the hosting server for them to run, and with a shared web hosting solution, you can install only software platforms that do not request complete server root access.

Private Virtual Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For web portals that demand full root access, or if your online portal has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of daily hits, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A private virtual web server is a software imitation of a dedicated solution and it runs in a strictly identical manner.

Private Virtual Servers

Both environments traditionally come with server root access and can be restarted via a software platform by the customer, independently from the web hosting provider. Similar to the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server plans have diverse specifications depending on what the web hosting vendor offers. A virtual server account includes guaranteed web storage space, random access memory and central processing unit usage quotas that can sometimes be increased for short spans of time in case there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware equipment it is making use of, and it can be configured by changing or adding components. A virtual private web hosting server is simpler to handle as it comprises a virtualization software platform, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, explore stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web server is more intricate, so such a solution would rather be used by tech-savvy customers.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Nonetheless, given web hosting providers provide managed dedicated web hosting services where they execute dedicated hosting server administration procedures on behalf of the client. This can be included in the package or an additional feature.
