Top Web Hosting

There are different types of web hosting packages suitable for different sites in terms of the system resources or the web hosting environment they need. To select the most adequate web hosting service for your online portal, you need to reckon what server-side software it requires, how many hits per day you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific demands that may need to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Perquisites

The most optimal option for small scale web portals with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this form of website hosting, each client pays only for their account, which reduces the total cost per client radically. There are different web hosting plans differing from one company to another, furnishing different amounts of data storage and monthly bandwidth, different mail address account quotas and so on. The advantage is that you can obtain an account that will provide the specs your web portal in fact needs. You will not need to pay lots of cash for a plan you will not avail of, or end up with a small scale account that cannot shelter the online portal. We, at TriQul, offer a wide assortment of web hosting solutions suitable for private or small business sites that even provide pre-installed script-powered platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things easier. If you commence with a cheaper account and you demand more system resources, moving to a more feature-rich plan requires just a click.

Shared Web Hosting - Negative Aspects

A disadvantage of the shared website hosting environment is that the hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot activate new software. Some web sites, chiefly online shops, request applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to run, and with a shared website hosting platform, you can activate only software applications that do not request complete root-level access.

Private Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For sites that demand full root access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even millions of visits per day, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A VPS is a virtual emulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it functions in a precisely identical manner.

Private Virtual Servers

Both platforms normally come with complete root access and can be restarted through a software program by the user, independently from the hosting supplier. Analogous to the shared web hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting server accounts have diverse functionalities depending on what the web hosting provider offers. A virtual web server package contains guaranteed web storage, RAM and central processing unit usage quotas that can at times be enhanced for short stretches of time provided that there are free resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be configured by changing or appending components. A Virtual Private Server is easier to cope with as it includes a virtualization tool, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, explore stats, etc. The management of a dedicated server is more complex, so such a solution would rather be resorted to by competent users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Nonetheless, some web hosting providers provide managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they carry out web server management tasks on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of package or an additional option.

Before You Decide...

Settling on the top hosting package is essential as it can have an influence on the proper operation of a site. Prior to picking an account, compare the pros and cons, study thoroughly all the prerequisites for the online portal to run properly, especially if it is script-driven.
