Quality Web Hosting

There are various types of web hosting services suitable for different sites when it comes to the resources or the web hosting environment they need. To select the most suitable web hosting service for your web portal, you have to judge what server-side software it needs, how many visits per day you anticipate at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other specific demands that may have to be satisfied.

Shared website hosting - Strong Points

The most optimal choice for small sized sites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting plan. With this type of web hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which minimizes the overall cost per person drastically. There are various web hosting accounts differing from one hosting supplier to another, delivering different amounts of hard disk storage and monthly bandwidth, different email box account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can order an account that will have the features your web portal really requires. You will not need to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not utilize, or end up with a small scale package that cannot shelter the site. We, at KTX Hosting, offer a big assortment of web hosting packages appropriate for personal or small business portals that even include pre-installed script-driven systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things easier. If you kick off with a basic package and you require more functionalities, upgrading to a more powerful plan takes only a mouse click.

Shared Hosting - Disadvantages

A drawback of the shared website hosting environment is that the servers have some software installed on them and you cannot activate additional software platforms. Given online portals, above all web stores, need applications to be present on the server for them to perform, and with a shared website hosting solution, you can install only software that does not demand full root access.

VPS Web Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For online portals that demand full root access, or if your web page has many thousands or even millions of daily visits, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A private virtual server is a software emulation of a dedicated hosting server and it functions in absolutely the same way.

Private Virtual Web Servers

Both solutions usually give complete root access and can be restarted via a software tool by the client, autonomously from the hosting supplier. Analogous to the shared web hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web server accounts involve diverse functionalities depending on what the web hosting supplier offers. A virtual private web server package offers guaranteed disk storage space, RAM and CPU quotas that can sometimes be expanded for short spans of time provided that there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware architecture it is making use of, and it can be revamped by changing or adding components. A VPS is easier to administer as it includes a virtualization tool, which can be utilized to restart it, to install applications, check stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more intricate, so such a plan would rather be used by tech-savvy users.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Still, some hosting firms offer managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they execute dedicated hosting server management procedures instead of the client. This can be included in the plan or an extra upgrade.

Opting for the top hosting package is crucial as it can affect the proper performance of a web site. Before settling on a package, weigh the pros and cons, study thoroughly all the prerequisites for the web portal to perform properly, particularly if it is script-driven.
