Hosting Explanation

Hosting is a sort of Internet service that enables persons and companies to make their web sites visible on the web. Hosting service providers are firms that offer disk space on a web hosting server located in a data center and ensure constant Internet connectivity.

Where do you begin?

The Internet is a vital fragment of everybody's everyday life. It gives you the opportunity to earn a little side cash, but can also be a major source of revenue. In order to incorporate advertisements on your web site or to promote a commodity that you sell, you invariably require a hosting service, which will make certain that your online portal is protected and always accessible. But how do you find one that is affordable and yet stable enough?

The shared hosting solution

The solution hosting corporations have introduced is named shared hosting. With the shared hosting solution, plenty of hosting clients are accommodated on the very same web hosting server. There are severe limitations on the system resources that each shared web hosting account can actually utilize, thus guaranteeing that they do not intervene with each other. The shared web hosting solution offers satisfactory performance and is less expensive than, let's say, a dedicated web server, which is used by just one single customer. The shared solution enables hosting suppliers to offer their clients reasonable prices. It ordinarily comes with user-friendly hosting Control Panel software, as is the case with the server that we at Hostinger provide, and enables everybody to manage their web sites without bothering about server configuration and maintenance tasks, which are handled solely by the hosting distributor.

VPS hosting

With the VPS hosting solution, on the other hand, you share a physical server with other VPS server users, but you are allotted a dedicated share of the system resources. The virtual web hosting server solution is the middle ground between the much cheaper shared hosting solution and the more expensive dedicated web server hosting solution, and is a very suitable solution for anyone who wants to launch, for instance, a live streaming site or a social networking website. The fact that you have to deal with the web server configuration settings and software updates yourself is somewhat of a weakness, but this could also be a great asset if you really have to implement certain server configuration changes - something that would be inconceivable on a shared hosting web server.

Dedicated Servers

Dedicated servers are in the majority of instances much more high-priced than shared hosting or private virtual server web hosting solutions. You might wonder why would anyone want to use a dedicated hosting web server then? The explanation is rather simple. If your corporation has a big web portal, or simply has very specific server architecture and safety requirements, the most logical choice is a dedicated hosting web server that you or your technicians can administer directly. For somebody who is prepared to invest in safety and reliability, the higher price is not an issue. You receive full root access and can use 100 percent of the dedicated web server's system resources without anyone else sharing these system resources and intervening with your sites.
