First of all we must determine the meaning of the word "hosting".
So,
what is hosting?
Hosting origins from the word "host" which has different meanings that
are familiar to you. Hosting means providing place for your website on
the web hosting company's servers and makes it viewable in the Internet
and floating it.
Why can you once need hosting?
Imagine that you have created a website and now you are wondering how
your friends and acquaintances can see it. You place it in your
personal computer, but then you come to know that it's dangerous for
your computer's safety and needs permanent Internet connection. So it
causes a lot of inconveniences for you. To avoid them there is web site
hosting.
There are different kinds of web site hosting. Let's have a good look
at them:
- Shared or virtual hosting
- Dedicated hosting/ server, Co-location
- VDS/VPS -Virtual Dedicated Server/Virtual Private
Server
Before choosing some type of web hosting it's necessary to consider the
way you are going to use it.
Free Shared hosting
If you want to host some non-profit-making or your personal web site
it'd be more profitable to use basic shared hosting for no fee. This
type of web site hosting is a rather logical choice if you are a junior
in web site building or if you want to try some new idea and don't want
to pay. But of course you don't have to suppose it to grant your site
the best conditions, such as proper bandwidth and disk space.
Some
other features can also be limited, I mean MySQL, PHP support. It often
also provides poor web statistics.
Paid Shared hosting
Almost all small businesses, intermediate and large professional sites
use shared hosting, 'cause they don't need the whole server's space and
besides the whole server costs much. With shared/virtual hosting such
necessary features, as multiply e-mail, MySQl, PHP, are supported. The
main disadvantage is decrease of your site's security.
Dedicated hosting /Server
This type of hosting is the best choice for those, who need much
storage and bandwidth, and are good in server administration. You'll be
able to use all necessary software, but if you don't have enough
knowledge to administrate your server it will be a little bit difficult
for you.
Co-location
It's a sub type of dedicated hosting and can be compared with your own
house which was built specially for you, with your favorite furniture
and all. It's built on your hoster's (ISP) ground. This service is
implied to fulfill only your tasks and is designed for your needs
alone. And it's cost is correspondingly high.
VDS/ VPS
Virtual private server is a type of web site hosting that is based on
dividing a physical server into several virtual ones. It costs less
though gives same possibilities as Dedicated server. Now, when we've
examined different types of hosting services, you can decide which type
of hosting is the most suitable for you.
