Helpful Information to Find the Ideal Web Hosting Service
Whether
you are running a large business or small size company, a website is more than
mandatory equipment to register the presence of your business across the world nowadays.
Much of its performance depends on the chosen hosting services. So, a hosting
service should be chosen carefully with much contemplation. Ideally, you should
choose the one that suits your business rather than which costs lesser.
To
understand concern and issues that revolves around hosting services, we need to
understand the web hosting services offered by internet hosting provider.
Mainly,
five types of hosting services- dedicated shared, colocation, virtual, managed
and cloud hosting service are available in the market. Here we are discussing
some standard features of these services.
Dedicated Hosting Service: In Dedicated hosting service, one
server hosts your website and offers total control. You can host unlimited
number of domains. Dedicated web hosting offers carrier neutral bandwidth hosting
and has lowest latency among the types of web hosting services offered. It is
the most reliable and comprehensive server hosting solution available. The
dedicated hosting service is backed up by timely support on 24X7X365 basis and personal
account manager.
Shared Server Hosting Service: In this hosting, your website shares
space with other websites. The uploading speed of your website can get bit
slower as other websites would be sharing the space and potential of the
server. If you are sharing space with websites which demand huge bandwidth or
memory, the performance and traffic of your website is marred. This is the
cheapest form of shared web hosting service available. Most of the web-blogs
and small website are hosted on shared basis. Though, nowadays most of the
service providers are offering excellent support by the means of antivirus,
dedicated team for technical support and control panel.
Virtual Private Server: Virtual web hosting fills the
prevalent gap between shared and dedicated hosting. It has features of both shared
services but at lesser costs. Since, VPS server runs its own OS and hardware, users
have super access and control over website and environment.
Managed Web Hosting Service: Managed web hosting is more or less
similar to a dedicated hosting service but without any access to program files.
Server management is done by the concerned hosting service provider but you
have to manage files and core information, which can be troublesome.
Server Co-location Hosting: In this type of
hosting, your site is hosted on a custom made server. You can include RAM, disk
space, CPU efficiency as per your liking and business need. You can also
request assistance from the service provider or choose to manage the server on your
own. For businesses struggling with challenges of uprising costs, limited
resources, and turnaround time’s colocation is the best option.
Cloud Hosting: As a user- you host
website, hardware or software inside a massive computing infrastructure known
as cloud. Used as pay-as-you-go service, you just need to tap the cloud if you
want to modify the resources you are using at a moment. A cloud hosting utilizes
multi-connected servers which reduces the downtimes considerably. A cloud based
hosting is cost efficient and completely scalable.

Another basic concept that should be added is Reseller Accounts for shared hosting. Contrary to one's first assumption, you do not need to resell to anyone else in order to gain the benefit when you desire to host multiple websites. They can share the expense and lower your cost significantly.
