Definition of Shared Website Hosting


If you are seeking a cheap website hosting solution, the solution for you is called web hosting.

What Is Web Hosting?

Over the years, the need for hosting services has escalated hugely, but customers also prefer budget prices. The solution web hosting suppliers have contrived is called web hosting. These hosting companies host many clients on one and the very same web server, ensuring that they do not intervene with each other by placing restrictions on the server resources each shared hosting account is allowed to use. This allows for both stable performance and lower operational costs as compared with a dedicated hosting, which is utilized by only a single customer, and allows web hosting distributors to offer cheap prices to their clients.

What can you do with a web hosting account?

The web hosting accounts usually include different website, e-mail and database management tools - a hosting CP, a File Manager interface, an FTP software client, a phpMyAdmin interface, and typically webmail - to check your email mailbox accounts. At , we provide all these tools at modest rates. We offer both monthly and annual invoicing options and also provide a cheap domain name registration with each of our shared hosting plans. You can also administer everything from one place with us - our user-friendly hosting Control Panel includes all the functionalities you need to manage your website files, DNS resource records, register and renew more domain names, set up e-mailbox accounts and email aliases, enable e-mail forwarding and auto-configure your mail software client. How many domain names you can accommodate in your shared account is dependent on the website hosting package you have, but traffic and hosting server hard drive storage space are unlimited - you are solely limited in terms of the central processing unit allocation and the amount of hosted domain names.

Backup

Apart from all the usual features, it is extremely important when the web hosting vendor makes certain that your data is secure. This is why the availability of routine backups is mandatory and you should ascertain in advance if the hosting plans provider of your choice is offering such. We conduct everyday backups and maintains backups for the last seven days. The backup encompasses your web files and databases and to have it retrieved, you have to talk to our technical support department. They respond in less than an hour, so if you erased those files accidentally - do not go to pieces, there's hope yet!
