Low-Cost Web Hosting Packages

 

 

With the escalating number of individuals wishing to build their very own personal sites has appeared a growing necessity for more affordably priced web hosting services. Since there are plenty of web hosting companies offering shared hosting services, the competition is immense and has paved the way for the emergence of low-priced, but reliable web hosting services on the market.

Hosting Choices

There are different hosting services: Dedicated Server, private virtual hosting servers (VPSs), shared web hosting and charge-free hosting packages. Out of all these hosting solutions, the shared hosting solution has attracted the highest amount of customers, since it is both moderately priced and stable, without any commercials and commonly with numerous features. Each web hosting account on a shared web hosting server must abide by specific system resource limits. This permits many individuals to be hosted on one and the same hosting server without interfering with each other, thus decreasing the cost of the web hosting service.

Hosting Services That Meet Your Allowance

Lots of web hosting service providers, including U Build Your Website Web Hosting Services, have already begun offering unmetered bandwidth and web storage space quotas. Different web hosting packages include a different number of allowed hosted domain names, so depending on how many web sites you would like to host under one account, you can select between several cheap shared web hosting plans. U Build Your Website Web Hosting Services hosting packages are inexpensive, matching the expression "budget hosting" perfectly, and you can pick between monthly and annual payment cycles based on your funds.

Additional Bonuses

Besides providing flexible budget hosting packages, U Build Your Website Web Hosting Services also offers a free-of-cost domain with each shared web hosting plan. While exploring our easy-to-use web hosting Control Panel, you'll be pleasantly astonished not only by the multitude of features in the File Manager tool, but also by the extremely user-friendly PHP script installer and the website builder (Site Studio) coming with many web site templates. These two advanced tools will allow you to quickly create a web site from the ground up without the need to possess any programming skills.

Initial Simple Steps

Whether you would like to create a personal web site or a corporate portal, the Site Studio website builder offers themes for both types of websites. All you have to do is choose the type of web site and then choose a web site template from the many available. If you want to create a weblog, an image gallery or an e-store, the PHP script installer will provide you with many PHP scripts you can use. All of them can be activated with only several mouse clicks without the need to read any installation instructions. All this spares you the money you would have had to invest in web design services – if you aren't capable of creating sites yourself.

Got E-mail If You Want It

All web hosting packages already offer e-mail services too. Like other firms in the web hosting niche, U Build Your Website Web Hosting Services also offers e-mail services. With our Control Panel, though, which has a built-in webmail platform, managing your e-mail box accounts will be much easier.

What is Cloud Web Hosting?

Essentially, the genuine cloud web hosting platform serves distinct website hosting services such as disk space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on, on autonomous groups of deluxe servers. Each particular service pack creates a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the specific service and nothing beside it. They will all function as one web server, sharing out the service's load in approximately equipollent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a disk space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a website hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these autonomous service clusters will compose the so-called cloud hosting platform.

The colossal cloud website hosting trick. Very common today.

There is so much confusion revolving around about cloud web hosting today. As you can see, cloud web hosting does not only sound complicated, but in fact it is extremely perplexing. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud web hosting is. On the wings of this universal unawareness, the "cloud web hosting distributors" speculate fervently, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a shame! A vast disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the website hosting industry there are no ordinances at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web hosting industry niche has no such supervising organization. This is why the web hosting distributors speculate and lie overtly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's uncover how much cloud web hosting they in reality can deliver.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting merchandisers

If a cPanel-based web hosting provider has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is quite improbable, lots of hosting servers have to be bought. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that towards the end of this story. First off, let's explore what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting retailer to keep the cloud website hosting platform at hand, owing to the fact that creating one demands years. Even when time and the provision of a highly qualified team are not an issue, plenty of cash has to be invested as well. Mountains of money. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense inconvenience.

The shortage of open source cloud web hosting systems

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting solutions. There are no open source web hosting CP GUIs (working with the cloud website hosting platform) either. Therefore, to have a cloud web hosting platform at hand, first you have to devise one. In-house. Secondly, you have to create the web hosting Control Panel as well.

One server-based website hosting CPs

Famous web hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to operate on one single server solely. All website hosting services (web space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, website hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at one and the same time on one web server where these particular one-server web hosting platforms and web hosting CPs are set up.

The deficiency of open source Control Panels

So, you must construct an in-house built website hosting CP that will function unproblematically and to include it within the cloud system, as if it was a natural constituent of it. Proper instances of in-house set up cloud web hosting systems with custom devised website hosting CPs besides us, at U Build Your Website Web Hosting Services, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware equipment charges

The smallest investment required, only for the cloud web hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between $60,000 USD and $80,000. That's omitting the DDoS mechanism, which is another $15-20,000. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting systems can be stumbled upon out there... and, in particular, why the hosting sky is so blue... and almost cloudless!

Till next time, have a great week!

Affordable webhosting

The type of web site is an important factor that should be considered when you choose affordable web hosting to be used. There is several number of free web hosting on the internet. But individuals and typically businesses do not opt for free web hosting instead they prefer the affordable ones for several reasons. One of the reasons is posting all sort of advertisement onto free hosting domain. This huge number of ads, does not promote your own business, instead it decreases traffic to your own website.

There are other disadvantages of free web hosting such as lack of service to your customer, enormous problem on the lack of technical knowledge of web hosting. Limited disk storage, very little bandwidth, limited email accounts, limited space for your own ads, and less features being offered by the free host and non guaranteed uptime are yet another few reasons why affordable web hosting is preferable than the free ones. And business is of no good if downtime is much longer and frequent.

Fortunately, affordable hosting services can be availed instead of free web hosting services. Its monthly costs are $10 - $50. The features that you would want would be the basis for the price. No matter how much the cost might be, verify the guarantee and refund policies stating money back without question of the hosting service acquired.

"Unlimited bandwidth" is sometimes offered by affordable hosting services. However, unlimited "bandwidth" is never true. This is because web hosts change more when a specific limit is reached. So this is the term you need to be aware of. The support services to the customer are the important things to consider in choosing affordable web hosting. Conduct a thorough research on the website of the web hosting company. Know their length of time in this operation and if they offer the services that will suit your need.

Affordable web hosting is often based on Linux because it is cheaper than Windows and open source development tools are offered such as PHP, MySQL and Telnet service. These languages and databases which are Linux based can be installed for free that's why .often usable in affordable web hosting companies. Software such as ASP, SQL Server, Cold Fusion, and Access which are Windows proprietary can add additional expense. Since Windows based software is proprietary, it is difficult to find an affordable web hosting using those since purchasing those components by the hosting company is expensive. So it is best to choose a Linux based web hosting services.

Before choosing and making a commitment to an affordable web hosting company, make sure to verify their background and conduct a thorough research on their whereabouts.

Till next time, have a great weekend!

How to Use Domain Name Marketing

A domain name is your way of being identified on the internet. The name that you choose will determine how many potential clients or customers you will have.

You need to be very careful what name you select as it will be used to describe your business. Don’t use a name that does not reflect on the products you sell or the service that you provide.

Choosing a domain name is vital to any business that is online. When you use email marketing to attract your potential customers your domain name will be the name that the recipient will see.

When you use domain name marketing to increase your business income you will need to spend a little extra time determining what group of people you will want to reach the most.

If you have a product for teens you don’t necessarily need to sell to adults. You need to know how to grab their attention. Your domain name will speak for your business and provide the email recipient with the information they need to determine if they will delete your email or open it.

If you are not sure what to select as your domain name you may want to hire someone who works on domain name marketing. These agencies can be found online and can help you determine what domain name would be right for you based on the information you provide to them regarding your product descriptions and what your goal is. Domain name marketing is the best way to get the word out.

Using Unmanaged Host Services

 

The needs of a business may require for a total control of the business' website. The business operation cannot allow for unexpected downtime or be constrained by what is available in the hosting's web server. This is where the unmanaged web hosting offering comes in. There is a dedicated administrator to oversee the proper operation of your website.

The web hosting company will not be responsible for the regular administration of the web server in the unmanaged web hosting service. This kind of administration which is present in a managed hosting service is missing in an unmanaged hosting offering. In this arrangement, you must have your own dedicated IT person to perform this task.

The unmanaged hosting services is often used in the development of real time fast response systems such as geographical weather analysis, oil mining and engineering and the entertainment applications. The amount of customization both in software and hardware is so different and it does not fit in any other model of hosting. The add-on software that is required could be proprietary and there could be a business-required attached hardware peripherals as well.

Many web hosting servers are already configured for this kind of web hosting model. However, If the web hosting's specification is not enough, the customer can choose to add additional resources like hard disk or software add-ons. Each configuration is surely unique to fit and reflect the business requirements.

The unmanaged web hosting service is not for small businesses which are better off with a managed hosting service instead of the unmanaged to relieved them from the additional task of administration. There is a cost incurred in the unmanaged web hosting service due to the constant software and hardware upgrades which is performed by the assigned IT staff paid by your business.

The correct planning and technical knowledge is the best strategy whether to go for a managed versus the unmanaged web hosting service. The greatest benefit is achieved if the business requirements is empowered by the matching web hosting model wither it be managed or unmanaged.

Using Managed Dedicated Web Hosting

Companies and individuals who are put off by the restrictions of the free hosting offerings can choose for a managed and dedicated hosting service. If your website has complicated functionality and if you want it to have more features, then a managed and dedicated web hosting should be your choice.

The offerings of dedicated managed services includes unlimited email addresses. You will also have a huge storage space to store you data and a database management system to manage it. In this setup, you can add more functionality in your website to exploit these features.

A huge storage space is not enough. A fast bandwidth is the key for your users to have a smooth experience accessing your website. You may need a different bandwidth requirement if your website provides streaming data versus if your website only provides pictures.

Small Office Home Office (SOHO) businesses can benefit greatly from this kinds of web hosting. You can organize your business team by assigning them each with their own email addresses. You can also share these emails to your friends and family members.

A website that provides a streaming video service like YouTube has a high storage and bandwidth demands. While your miles may vary, the baseline could be 1TB of storage space. If your website is for private use, estimate how many users will be accessing it. If your website is for the whole world, then you have to regularly monitor the usage statistics as it can be difficult to estimate the rapidly increasing Internet users today.

The consideration for scalability should be at the front seat of your website's design and in your choice of hosting plans. Evolve or die, as the saying goes. With scalability strategy in place, your business can choose to grow or shrink depending on the situation. Provide back-end access to your website so that your team can operate on your data regularly.



The dedicated web service hosting is the most common choice for most small businesses and individuals. The service allows them to start small but functional, and then they can chose to upgrade later. Therefore, a web hosting company that has the required technology for these possibilities is a smart choice.

What is Web Hosting?

Web hosting is a business provider space on a server or data center where website stored in it making these websites accessible on the internet. Web hosting can be available in several ways. One of these methods is by doing the web hosting on your own so that you can have full control over the services and functionality to suit your specification. However, one of the drawbacks of this method is the financial aspect and as much as technical knowledge in setting up this kind of web hosting. In as much as skills, money, time and effort are needed in building up this hosting, one must consider the quality of the services that would become available.

One can opt to paid web hosting that provides the most solutions of choices in terms of software and configurations, hardware compute power, security and reliability. There is no optimized one-size fits-all solution here, and the solution that claims to be such is most probably an overkill of what is actually needed. Depending on the business' technical specification, web hosting would cost at around $10 to $5,000 at a monthly cost. And ways of payment could vary according to business agreement of both web hosting provider and the client.

Small-scale to medium sized consumers can also prefer shared web services due to its minimum cost. Aside from a minimal monthly charge, individuals and businesses sometimes choose this type of hosting for it requires less technical know-how and provide basic services that they need. Moreover, shared web servers are convenient to use and serves similar purpose. Mostly of the paid web hosting providers offers money back guarantees without questions asked, whenever their services does not conform to the agreed conditions. Also they provide assurance of the highest percentage of uptime. In instances of their service failure such as downtime, they provide compensated reimbursement to their clients.

For those people whose technical know-how on web hosting is at an entry-level, it is best to first experience running their websites in a free web hosting than to go directly on web hosting that has a monthly cost. Or if the situation suggests that a temporary host and storage is basically needed, then a free web hosting is strongly advisable. However in this venture, limitations are all at hand. The common limitations amongst all the free web hosting services are limited disk storage, minimal bandwidth, non guaranteed uptime, prohibited customization of your web pages, bundle of banner ads that should be posted in your site and zero customer support.

Web hosting could be simpler or far too complex process that depends on the functionality of the website that should provide a partial insight on how to best come up with the optimized choice in terms of whether a paid or free web hosting should fit your personal or business requirements and conditions.

Linux Unix Host Options for Small Businesses

Ever since the very first web pages came online, the Unix operating system has been there to power the brave new world of the internet. Small businesses and thriving companies survived their way from these dark ages until today because of the stability and reliability of the Unix operating system as a server platform.

Sometime in 1991, a Finish genius Linus Torvalds planted the seed of what is now to become the Linux system. This operating system is like Unix, but more. It sprouts from the interconnectedness of the world wide web that made possible the cooperation of thousands of other computer programmers to breath life to the old Unix and make it into a RedHat or a Gentoo.

The very first users of Unix/Linux were the hard core computer programmers and hackers. However, today things are changing and we can see already our grandma using it from time to time. The power and the openness of this platform has caught the attention of businesses by storm. The concept of openness wherein everybody can see and examine the source code allows for infinite customization. For the first time, businesses can shape their software solutions like a piece of clay.

For the few last years, many web hosting companies transformed their web hosting solutions into a Linux/Unix platform. The reliability of these type of operating system is proven and has undergone the test of fire. Web hosting solutions from Microsoft operating system is no match in terms of uptime and programmability. The amount of power that can be achieved from a Unix/Linux solution is just beyond its competitors available today.

Software programmability is built into the DNA of Linux/Unix. Computer languages from scientific to commercial applications exist in this platform. Every new discovery is first tested in this open platform. It is an fiesta bonanza of various software applications known to man for free. The kernel is coded in C computer language and you can examine the source code or choose to recompile it. The amount of computer software languages that can be made to work in Linux/Unix is mind-boggling.

The web owes itself to Unix and many web development tools already exist in this platform even before there was Facebook. Ancient and powerful communication arsenals allows you to log-in via SSH like ninja or ftp into your web server. However, there are also GUI tools too.

The era of a free word is dawning and the Unix/Linux solutions will continue to spread its influence into businesses from handhelds operating system, web server platforms to mainframes and supercomputers.

Do You Need A Lot Of Bandwidth?

The term bandwidth is often a measure of how fast is your web browsing experience when doing something in the Internet. If the data's direction is from your computer and going out somewhere out in the Internet, this is called outbound data. If the data's direction if somewhere from the Internet and going into your computer, this is called inbound data. Popular websites require a lot of bandwidth and if the bandwidth cannot handle the page requests the website will crash and the users cannot access the website.

When your web page is accessed, there is an amount of inbound data that travels from the web hosting's web server into the user's computer. When you write a blog into your website, there is an outbound data going out from your personal computer and into the web hosting's web server and this will eat some space in the server's hard disk. This will be something of a consideration when choosing your web hosting plans. Consider the size of storage space in the hard disk and the speed of data transmission.

Marketing ploys nowadays will try to misused certain terms to mislead customers. While these kinds of advertisements can be supported by web hosting companies as true when rigorously verified based on the hosting company's own definitions of certain terms, your own understanding of a certain term might not be what the hosting company is trying to say. When you want to have a certain feature, make sure that both you and the web hosting service have the same understanding of the term for that feature and its exact meaning. This will save you from regrets later.

Let us take for example this most popular web hosting gimmicks nowadays, the term 'unlimited bandwidth'. The web hosting's terms of service may have stated in a certain paragraph what it means to have 'unlimited bandwidth'. One actual example could be that, this means an unlimited access to your websites for until you keep on paying the monthly dues and does not mean an unlimited speed.

It just meant, unlimited access. Or the hosting company have their own definition that an unlimited bandwidth is actually 100MB of total data bandwidth per month.

According to the physicist Albert Einstein, there are only two things in this universe that are unlimited, and that he is not entirely sure of the first one:

1)the size of the universe

2)human stupidity. By an application of a little common sense, the offering of an 'unlimited bandwidth' would mean unlimited resources in terms of hard disks and network cables or CPU power. Even the speed of light already has its limit of 299,792,458 meters per second. Could it be possible that these web hosting companies have broken the speed of light?

I don't think so. But I don't blame these web hosting companies for coming up with these trick because not all websites behave alike and there could be certain site that went suddenly popular for a brief moment eating up all of their resources, crashing their servers and bringing down all the other websites within that server into darkness.

Some web hosting also allows unlimited data storage. But when you read their terms of service, they don't allow you the storage of certain file types like video, mp3, or huge images. Indeed, there is an unlimited data storage but of text files only! To give you an idea, the Old and New Testament of the Bible combined together has only 774,746 text words. Therefore, clarify with the web hosting terms of agreement what valid files are allowed.

Once you have uploaded your website, observe carefully your website's performance in its first few months. This should give you an idea as a reference comparison later.

If you will host video files, or virtual reality type of web page, compute an estimate bandwidth for a decent performance. Your own testing may not be accurate but at least you have your own data and this shows that you know your website's requirements.

In summary, knowledge is power and you should do your own research. Know your own web site's requirements, and know what the hosting company has to offer.

A good match between these two will result in a beautiful website that is available 24/7/365. It will be the work of art that you have conceived it to be.

Till next time!

Top Shared Hosting

 

There are various varieties of shared hosting accounts appropriate for different web sites in terms of the system resources or the shared hosting platform they demand. To choose the most relevant shared hosting service for your site, you must calculate what server-side software it requires, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special needs that may need to be satisfied.

Shared website hosting - Advantages

The most optimal option for small size websites with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this type of website hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which diminishes the total cost per person seriously. There are different web hosting packages varying from one web hosting company to another, offering different quotas of server storage and web traffic, different e-mail address account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can buy an account that will include the features your web site indeed needs. You will not have to pay a lot of money for an account you will not avail of, or end up with a small size package that cannot shelter the site. We, at U Build Your Website Web Hosting Services, offer an immense variety of shared hosting packages appropriate for personal or small business web pages that even provide pre-activated script-powered systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you begin with a low grade account and you need more system resources, moving to a more powerful account requires just a click of the mouse.

Shared web hosting - Inconveniences

A downside of the shared web hosting environment is that the web hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot install new software programs. Specific web sites, above all online shops, require software applications to be activated on the hosting server for them to work, and with a shared web hosting solution, you can activate solely software platforms that do not request full root-level access.

VPS Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For online portals that demand full server root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visitors per day, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual web hosting server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it behaves in strictly the same manner.

Virtual Private Servers

Both environments traditionally give full server root privileges and can be restarted via a software program by the customer, independently from the web hosting provider. Analogous to the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated web hosting plans come with different functionalities depending on what the web hosting supplier offers. A virtual private hosting server account contains guaranteed web space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can occasionally be enlarged for short stretches of time if there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be upgraded by changing or appending components. A VPS hosting server is simpler to manage as it ships with virtualization software, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, check stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated server is more elaborate, so such an account would rather be utilized by tech-savvy users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

However, given web hosting companies provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they perform dedicated web server management procedures on behalf of the client. This can be a part of plan or an additional feature.

Before You Decide...

Settling on the top hosting plan is essential as it can affect the proper performance of a online portal. Before selecting a plan, weigh the pros and cons, appraise thoroughly all the preconditions for the website to function properly, particularly if it is script-based. And if you are still not sure which is the best shared hosting service for you, consult with our live chat operators or give us a call - our sales representatives will be glad to help you and answer all your questions.
