Top Web Hosting

There are different kinds of web hosting plans suitable for different websites in regard to the resources or the web hosting environment they require. To select the best web hosting service for your site, you must calculate what server-side software applications it requires, how many daily hits you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special requirements that may need to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Strong Sides

The most adequate option for small sized web portals with several hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this type of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which decreases the overall cost per client considerably. There are various web hosting plans varying from one hosting corporation to another, providing different amounts of web storage and monthly traffic, different mail account quotas and so on. The advantage is that you can pay for an account that will include the features your online portal indeed demands. You will not need to pay lots of money for a package you will not make use of, or end up with a small account that cannot host the website. We, at D and Co. Webify, offer a large array of web hosting packages suitable for personal or small business pages that even come with pre-installed script-powered platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things easier. If you kick off with a less powerful package and you need more functionalities, moving to a more powerful account involves only a click.

Shared Website Hosting - Drawbacks

A weak side of the shared hosting environment is that the servers have some software programs installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software programs. Given web sites, above all online stores, request applications to be present on the web server for them to run, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can install solely software programs that do not need full root-level access.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For portals that request complete root access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily hits, what you demand is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual private web server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated hosting server and it performs in absolutely the same manner.

VPS Hosting Servers

Both environments typically offer full root access and can be restarted through a software program by the customer, autonomously from the hosting provider. Similar to the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web server hosting plans come with different functionalities based on what the hosting supplier offers. A VPS web hosting server package contains guaranteed hard disk space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can sometimes be enlarged for brief stretches of time in case there are free system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is availing of, and it can be revamped by changing or appending components. A VPS web hosting server is simpler to manage as it offers a virtualization software platform, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, monitor statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such a package would rather be utilized by knowledgeable users.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nevertheless, given providers provide managed dedicated server hosting services where they carry out dedicated hosting server management procedures instead of the customer. This can be included in the plan or an extra service.
