Best Web Hosting

There are different kinds of web hosting services appropriate for different websites in terms of the resources or the web hosting platform they demand. To pick the most optimal web hosting service for your web site, you must estimate what server-side software applications it requires, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special needs that may need to be covered.

Shared web hosting - Advantages

The most optimal alternative for small size web sites with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this form of web space hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which reduces the overall cost per user significantly. There are diverse web hosting accounts differing from one host to another, providing different quotas of storage space and monthly traffic, different e-mail account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can buy a package that will include the features your web site really needs. You will not need to pay plenty of money for a plan you will not utilize, or end up with a small account that cannot host the website. We, at BitLife Host, offer an immense collection of web hosting packages appropriate for personal or small business pages that even come with pre-installed script-based systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things easier. If you begin with a cheaper account and you demand more system resources, moving to a more powerful package requires just a click.

Shared Hosting - Negative Sides

A disadvantage of the shared web hosting platform is that the servers have some software installed on them and you cannot activate new software applications. Specific websites, chiefly online shops, need applications to be present on the server for them to operate, and with a shared website hosting platform, you can install solely software programs that do not require full root access.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For websites that request root access, or if your web page has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visitors per day, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A VPS hosting server is a software emulation of a dedicated solution and it functions in an absolutely identical manner.

Private Virtual Servers

Both platforms normally provide root access and can be restarted via a software platform by the client, autonomously from the hosting company. Like the shared website hosting plans, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting accounts have diverse features depending on what the hosting provider offers. A private virtual web hosting server account contains guaranteed data space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can occasionally be extended for brief spans of time provided that there are unused system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limit is the hardware it is using, and it can be revved up by changing or appending components. A private virtual web server is easier to manipulate as it comprises a virtualization tool, which can be utilized to restart it, to install applications, examine stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated server is more intricate, so such a plan would rather be resorted to by tech-savvy customers.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

However, given hosting providers offer managed dedicated server web hosting services where they implement dedicated server administration assignments instead of the client. This can be included in the package or an additional upgrade.

Prior To Selecting...

Choosing the top hosting package is essential as it can influence the proper performance of a web site. Before picking a plan, compare the pros and cons, examine carefully all the prerequisites for the web portal to work properly, particularly if it is script-driven.
