Low-Cost Web Hosting Solutions

As the IT niche fosters all the time, brand new cheap hosting solutions are brought in to render website development and management simpler than ever. A shared hosting plan with the smallest web storage space and traffic amounts used to cost tens of USD a month, but now, some corporations provide unmetered packages for just a fraction of this price, permitting customers and small-scale companies to have their place in the virtual world.

Cut-Price, Stable Shared Hosting Plans

The development of more robust configurations and the allocation of different tasks between different web hosting servers enable corporations to offer reliable, yet cheap hosting accounts. With a shared hosting plan, each client gets an account on a server and since a number of other customers share the very same server, the cost of the service is quite inexpensive. Based on the specific vendor, there may be data space, monthly traffic or CPU usage limits, but thanks to the immense rivalry on the market and the abovementioned distribution of tasks, most top-notch companies provide unmetered resource packages. The most common restriction is linked to the central processing unit load, and such a quota restriction is a way for the provider to guarantee that all accounts on the hosting server will have guaranteed resources and that if a single account loads the web server, it will not have a negative effect on the other ones, causing all the web pages on the web hosting server to go down. A shared hosting service can be used for any small or medium-sized website - from a private online journal, to a forum or a small-size web shop.

Half-Priced virtual private servers

For more well known sites that receive 1000's of visits each day, there is also an affordable, quality solution - a virtual private servers. With this kind of cheap hosting, there are only a couple of accounts on a physical machine, which still preserves the price rather cheap in comparison with a dedicated server plans. Each VPS hosting server has guaranteed resources that are much more than those of a shared web hosting package, which makes it viable for people to set up large online storefronts, e-learning portals with hundreds or 1000's of users, and sizable company websites. Like the shared web hosting packages, the Virtual Private Server web hosting accounts have one or more features with a pre-defined quota, which ensures the immaculate operation of the other accounts on the web hosting server. The advantage of the Virtual Private Server is that the client has complete server root access, in other words tasks can be activated and ended, any software application can be activated, and the web server can be restarted through a virtualization panel tool, also known as a container. Since some script-based pages require extra server-side software to be installed, being granted full root-level access is a vital prerequisite for these pages to function unproblematically.

A Range of Hosting Control Panel Alternatives

The web content is administered through a hosting Control Panel just like any shared website hosting account. The web hosting CP types differ on the basis of the website hosting service provider, but the most widely used ones are Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin, Plesk and H-Sphere, and they all offer you the essential functionalities to maintain your online portals, to set up and handle files, databases and emails, set password secured areas, activate scripts via a script-installer user interface, and observe traffic statistics for your domains. Unfortunately, only Hepsia offers domain registrations, transfers, renewals and many domain handling functionalities, via a very easy-to-use menu dubbed Domain Manager.
