Hosting Description

Hosting is a type of online service that permits persons and businesses to make their web pages reachable on the Internet. Web hosting providers are companies that offer hard disk space on a hosting server stored in a data center facility and ensure constant website accessibility.

Where do you start?

The World Wide Web is an indispensable staple in our daily routine. It offers you the opportunity to earn additional profit, but can also be a major source of income. In order to display adverts on your web site or to advertise a service that you offer, you invariably need a hosting solution, which will guarantee that your web page is protected and continually up and running. But how do you find one that is affordable and yet dependable enough?

The shared hosting platform

The solution hosting service providers have brought forth is named shared hosting. With the shared hosting solution, a lot of hosting account holders are hosted on the very same web hosting server. There are strict restrictions on the system resources that each shared hosting account can in fact use, thus making sure that they do not meddle with each other. The shared web hosting solution offers satisfactory performance and is less expensive than, let's say, a dedicated server, which is utilized by just one user. The shared hosting solution permits hosting firms to offer their clients affordable prices. It usually includes easy-to-use Control Panel software, as is the case with the server that we at Maxima Host provide, and permits everybody to manage their web sites without bothering about server setup and maintenance tasks, which are taken care of solely by the hosting corporation.

VPS hosting

With the VPS hosting solution, on the other hand, you share a physical server with other virtual web server users, but you are allocated a dedicated share of the resources. The VPS web hosting solution is the middle ground between the much more affordably priced shared web hosting solution and the more expensive dedicated web hosting solution, and is a perfect solution for anyone who wants to host, for instance, a live streaming site or a social networking site. The circumstance 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 an enormous advantage if you indeed have to implement some server configuration modifications - something that would be inconceivable on a shared web hosting server.

Dedicated Servers

Dedicated servers are in the majority of situations much more high-priced than shared hosting or Virtual Private Server web hosting solutions. You might ask why would anyone use a dedicated web hosting server then? The answer is quite simple. If your corporation has a heavy resource-demanding site, or just has very explicit server configuration and security requirements, the most intelligent option would be a dedicated hosting web server that you or your admins can manage directly. For someone who is willing to invest in safety and stability, the bigger price is not an issue. You obtain root-level access and can use 100% of the dedicated web hosting server's system resources without anyone else utilizing these resources and interfering with your websites.
