Quality Hosting

There are various varieties of hosting packages appropriate for different websites in terms of the system resources or the hosting platform they demand. To choose the most suitable hosting service for your web portal, you must evaluate what server-side software applications it demands, how many visits per day you expect at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other special demands that may need to be fulfilled.

Shared website hosting - Positive Points

The most suitable alternative for small sized sites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting solution. With this type of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which reduces the overall price per user substantially. There are various web hosting plans differing from one web hosting supplier to another, providing different amounts of data storage space and traffic, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can order a package that will have the specifications your web site indeed demands. You will not need to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not make use of, or end up with a small scale plan that cannot accommodate the online portal. We, at MurnHost, offer a wide variety of hosting solutions suitable for personal or small business web sites that even offer pre-installed script-driven platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you kick off with a low grade package and you demand more resources, upgrading to a better plan takes only a click of the mouse.

Shared Web Hosting - Weaknesses

A weak side of the shared website hosting platform is that the hosting servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to install new software platforms. Certain web sites, especially online shops, demand software applications to be present on the hosting server for them to perform, and with a shared website hosting account, you can install solely software that does not demand complete root access.

Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For web portals that require complete root access, or if your web portal has many thousands or even millions of daily visits, what you need is a VPS or a dedicated server. A private virtual hosting server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated web hosting server and it operates in exactly the same manner.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions usually give full server root privileges and can be rebooted through a software interface by the customer, autonomously from the hosting supplier. Much like the shared web hosting packages, the VPS and the dedicated web hosting server packages sport different functionalities depending on what the hosting vendor offers. A VPS server hosting account has guaranteed web space, RAM and CPU quotas that can sometimes be enhanced for brief spans of time if there are unused system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limit is the hardware equipment it is making use of, and it can be upgraded by changing or adding components. A private virtual server is simpler to manipulate as it arrives with a virtualization tool, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, examine stats, etc. The administration of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such a plan would rather be utilized by tech-savvy clients.

Dedicated Web Servers

Yet, given hosting firms offer managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they carry out web hosting server management operations on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an additional feature.
