An explanation of web page hosting

The most principal and frequently availed of form of web hosting is the shared web hosting solution. It represents a means to host your site without having to be much informed about programming and handling a server. In addition, it's also the cheapest type of web site hosting and it's indeed affordable for everybody. Nevertheless, what is shared webspace hosting?

What is shared web hosting?

As the name indicates, the shared website hosting service is a type of service where a lot of users share the system reserves of one and the same server. This suggests that all server constituents like CPU, hard disk drives, RAM, network cards and so on, are apportioned among the users whose accounts are on that very same web server. This is usually made attainable by setting up different accounts for the different clients and setting given limits and quotas for each of them. Those restrictions are allocated so as to hinder the customers from interfering with each other's accounts and, of course, to prevent the web hosting server from overburdening. Usually, shared site hosting clients do not have complete root-level access to the hosting server's config files, which essentially goes to say that they do not have access to anything else on the web server beside their very own website page hosting account. The web page hosting features that each account may use are set by the hosting company that owns the hosting server and by the particular website hosting plan. That leads to the second essential question:

How are the shared hosting servers split among the clients?

Web hosting distributors that provide shared hosting plans typically have various hosting plans. Those packages contain diverse quotas of web site hosting resources and specs, which actually fix the limitations that a site hosting plan will have. The customer may pick between the individual web hosting plans and sign up for the one that he believes will fit him best. The site hosting package will then define what limitations the customer's account will involve, once opened. The costs and the specifications of the web space hosting plans are set by the given hosting corporation. Based on the policy of the provider, the shared web page hosting service falls into 2 types - the free hosting solution and the normal shared solution, currently very famous among "cPanel hosting" firms as a cloud web hosting one. It's not possible to judge, which one is better, since they are very different from one another and they indeed are dependent on the marketing strategy of the given supplier and, of course, the needs of the specific user.

What is the contrast between the free of charge and the standard shared web page hosting service?

Of course, the essential difference between the free of charge and the paid service is in the amount of features that they contain. Free site hosting suppliers are not able to maintain a large amount of hosting servers, therefore, they merely host more users on a single web hosting server by lowering the amount of system resources offered by the accounts. This will be effective only on condition that the web servers are monitored and tackled appropriately, since the immense number of accounts may make the hosting server crash again and again. Most of the free webspace hosting distributors, though, neglect the quality of the service and hence, it's quite difficult to stumble upon a free of charge site hosting solution that's actually worth the effort. The top free hosting vendors commonly provide free client support even to the free website hosting users, because they want their web portals to get bigger so that they subsequently move to a paid web site hosting account, which includes more hosting features. One such vendor, for example, is FreeHostia.com, which is among the biggest and oldest free web hosting suppliers in the world.

On the other hand, traditional shared web hosting vendors like NTC Hosting, for instance, may afford to maintain a lot of web servers and as a result, they may afford to offer much more feature-rich webspace hosting plans. Of course, that reflects on the pricing of the hosting packages. Paying a higher fee for a web space hosting account, though, does not necessarily imply that this account has a better quality. The most advantageous services are the balanced ones, which offer a price that corresponds to the actual service which you're getting. The top website hosting providers that have been around for a long time are revealing their prices and package specifications in a realistic fashion, so that the customer may acquainted with what indeed he is receiving. What's more, some of them provide a free extra with the website hosting plan, such as the 1-click applications installer, accompanied by hundreds of fee-free site themes that are supplied by 'NTC Hosting'. Such website hosting suppliers do care about their good name and that's why if you choose them, you can be calm that you won't get duped into buying a service that you cannot actually avail of.

What should I expect from a shared webspace hosting solution?

The shared web space hosting service is best for people who wish to host a standard web portal, which is going to consume a small or medium amount of web traffic every month. You cannot expect, however, that a shared site hosting account will last you a lifetime, because as your business develops, your website will become more and more resource consuming. Hence, you will have to ultimately move to a more powerful web site hosting solution like a semi-dedicated server, a VPS (aka a private virtual hosting server, or VPS), or why not a dedicated server. So, when choosing a web hosting supplier, you should also think about how they can be of service to you, or else you might end up moving your domain name manually to a separate distributor, which can create web site complications and even continued downtime for your web page. Therefore, choosing a site hosting company such as 'NTC Hosting', which can supply you with the needed domain name and hosting services as you get bigger, is crucial and will save you lots of difficulties in the long run.
