You got a domain name and you got an idea for a
website. You are ready for web hosting. But before you start signing up for any
affordable web hosting account, do you really know what options are available at
all? Three web hosting options are usually what it comes down to. Do you know
what these options are? Let’s take a quick look at the options for affordable
web hosting: Affordable web hosting on your hardware: This type of web hosting
is for webmasters who require certain configuration setups or are in need of
performance that shared web hosting just can't deliver. The cost for this kind
of web hosting is usually higher and it only makes financial sense when a
specific ROI is given. The bigger the ROI the more affordable is this kind of
web hosting. Hosting can be on leased or owned equipment.
Affordable web hosting on a virtual private
server. Virtual Private Web Server hosting is much more affordable compared to
owning or leasing an entire server. The support cost is still the same as you
will need a system administrator or maintain the OS yourself, but the hardware
is shared with other hosting customers. The advantage is an isolated operating
system that can be customized to your own needs. Custom configuration of (as an
example) PHP and Apache cannot be provided by shared hosting providers and so
the VPS offers the best of both worlds (shared hosting and dedicated server
hosting). Affordable web hosting as in shared web hosting. You rent web space on
a shared server and use a one size fits all setup type of account. This kind of
web hosting can be as low as $1 per month (low end) and go all the way up $xxx.xx
depending on the provider and support option and features you choose. This is
the most affordable option for web hosting.
With this basic knowledge available to you, you
can now evaluate what your needs and expectations are and investigate further to
see which way to go. Often it makes sense to start with shared web hosting and
then move up to a reseller account (still shared hosting) and then a VPS or
dedicated server. Keep in mind that no one size fits all and depending on what
your business model is you might skip the low end affordable web hosting and
start right at the top with a fully dedicated web server.
