Quality Web Hosting

There are various types of web hosting packages appropriate for different websites when it comes to the system resources or the web hosting platform they demand. To choose the best web hosting service for your site, you have to access what server-side software it requires, how many visits per day you anticipate at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific requirements that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared web hosting - Perquisites

The most adequate choice for small size web portals with several hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this type of site hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which decreases the total price per person markedly. There are diverse web hosting accounts differing from one web hosting corporation to another, supplying different quotas of disk storage and bandwidth, different e-mail account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can buy a package that will include the features your website in fact requires. You will not have to pay a lot for a package you will not use, or wind up with a small scale package that cannot shelter the site. We, at 7Global Connect, offer a great variety of web hosting accounts suitable for personal or small business web sites that even come with pre-installed script-driven systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you commence with a low-cost plan and you require more functionalities, moving to a high-end account involves just a mouse click.

Shared website hosting - Drawbacks

A weak side of the shared web hosting solution is that the web servers have some software programs installed on them and you cannot install new software platforms. Specific sites, above all web storefronts, request applications to be activated on the web hosting server for them to run, and with a shared web hosting account, you can install solely software programs that do not demand root access.

Virtual Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For web portals that request server root access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even millions of daily hits, what you demand is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual server is a software simulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it runs in precisely the same manner.

VPS Hosting Servers

Both environments typically include full root privileges and can be rebooted via a software interface by the customer, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Analogous to the shared website hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting plans sport diverse characteristics based on what the web hosting vendor offers. A VPS server web hosting plan contains guaranteed data space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be enhanced for brief spells of time in case there are unused system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is utilizing, and it can be revamped by changing or appending components. A virtual web hosting server is easier to cope with as it comprises a virtualization console, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, explore stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more elaborate, so such a package would rather be utilized by knowledgeable customers.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Nonetheless, certain providers offer managed dedicated web hosting services where they complete web server management assignments on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra service.
