Hosting Platform

In today’s world, promoting a website through internet has become one of the important marketing strategies to get success.

If you are a newbie and making a website, you may be know about Programming and Design part, but web hosting is also a major part, which you need to look in.

In this article, we will discuss about the three different types of web hosting platform: Shared, VPS and Dedicated and which one is suitable for your website.

Shared Hosting – This websites is one of the most common and popular platform. In this platform, hundred of sites are hosted in one server and a small part of space and resources is given to the customers. Space starts from 500MB more and you get some 10 Email id’s and limited bandwidth. The hosting provider monitors the software and security updates. This type of platform comes in cheap price which come less then 15$ per year. However, it is not suitable for business website as you may face downtime issues sometimes due to multiple sites hosted on same server.

However, it is suitable for blogs, small website and personal websites.

VPS Hosting – recently popular hosting platform and a most suitable one for medium base websites and blog. The concept of VPS is that the server is a process of dividing the hard disk of the server in such a way that the every partition will work separately. The each partition runs can be individual operating system and can be separately rebooted. VPS provides more disk space and bandwidth compared with shared hosting; this platform is suitable for websites, which has regular amount of traffic such as forums, application websites made by developers. In this hosting, the customer has total control and access over the server. It also comes in two ways, on is managed and another one is unmanaged. Managed is more expensive than unmanaged this is due to the server are totally managed by the company.

Dedicated Hosting – One of the top-level web hosting for large traffic websites. In this server a customer, get the whole resources dedicated to one website only. This type of hosting is for very high traffic websites and blogs that have more then 10,000 visitors per day. This type of server is fully managed and there will be no downtime issues such as shared hosting. However, the prices will be much high compared with shared and VPS.

Therefore, if you are hosting your website you can choose anyone of the above hosting platform, which suits your requirements.

As there are  free and paid web hosting available on the market, which can be divided in to Linux/Windows in which shared, VPS, and dedicated platforms are available

Every web hosting platform has its own advantages and disadvantages.

In this article, we will discuss about shared hosting platform.

Shared hosting is a type of hosting offering space for web sites on the web hoster’s server where you are hosted and shared this server with other customers’/web sites.

All the users/ websites hosted on the shared server use the same software and operating system. But not like free web hosting which has the same setting, with paid shared web hosting you have much more advantages..

Shared hosting can be separated into two types :-

One is free hosting , not a bad choice for trying something new and in which  you don’t want to pay for it. The free hosting offers you the features which you require for floating your website. But the disk space and bandwidth will be limited. This type of web hosting will not provider you with PHP Support, MySQL and stats and support which is the most essential part of the hosting is also not provided in free one.

Another one if paid shared hosting,  it provides you the features such as, email, PHP Support, MySQL, disk space  which is limited but you can upgrade if you need it and support, which is not available on free hosting. This is a best host for small business website or blog in which you don’t require a whole server space, and you can run your website with the features available according to your requirements’ at low price.

Shared hosting is in great requirement due to its features which is available without having special technical skills.

So now we can pick out advantages and disadvantages of shared hosting:

Advantages :-

Low price

Server management is good & easy

Support MySQL, email , PHP Support , etc

You don’t require technical knowledge, as you will require some basic things in website and server management.

Disadvantage:-

Security level is as not good due to resources are shared.

Resource limitation – customers shares the  memory, CPU and Hard Drive.

Limitation is hardware resources – all users hosted on same server use the same disk space, system and bandwidth.

You cannot install any software which is required for your, you will have to use the software which is provided by your hosting provider.

The major feature which is available on shared hosting is you don’t need to worry about the technical issues. As it is totally managed by your hosting provider, so if you face any problem it will be solved by your hosting provider immediately.

So, if you are looking to host your small business website/blog, you can select a shared hosting platform which will suits your requirements.

After taking a reseller package, you are provided with webspace, whole infrastructure and technical support from the hosting firm. You simply need to make customers and distribute the webspace and keep the prices according to your wish.
You have a linux reseller hosting account control panel called Web Host Manager. WHM is where you go to create your customer accounts. After filling in their account information you click “create.” This will instantly set them up with their very own control panel called cPanel. This is where they will go to administer their website. Once they are logged into cPanel they
can create subdomains, email addresses, change passwords, and much more without requiring any help from you or us.

Same goes for windows reseller package. You are given the privelage of creating the space and managing the same. You simply need to login in the plesk panel and create your customer’s account.
