A survey of WebHost-ing.com

We, at drones.us.com, have picked 'WebHost-ing.com' to be our current domain name and web hosting vendor. This is why we presume that this concise evaluation of 'WebHost-ing.com' is probably going to be quite useful for other individuals from all over the Globe who need domain name and web hosting services. We say people from all over the World, since the simple truth is that 'WebHost-ing.com' currently delivers domain and hosting services in multiple server farm locations: in the United States (Chicago, IL), in the United Kingdom (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, covering almost the entire Globe. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'WebHost-ing.com' in a few words:

Shared Web Space Hosting Services

The first thing we, at drones.us.com, have observed is the modest prices of the shared web site hosting plans offered by 'WebHost-ing.com'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared web hosting. The good news here is that the web page hosting plans furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com' are driven by an in-house designed, advanced cloud web hosting platform (each hosting service, like mail, databases, webspace hosting Control Panel, data storage, DNS, stats, etc., runs on a different stack of servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance EVERY cPanel web hosting distributor on the Globe will have great problems with, because cPanel is a single server based website hosting platform (each hosting service, such as mail, databases, website hosting CP, storage space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being tackled by a single server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel webspace hosting suppliers are not able to add new functionality and manipulate it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they must construct their own file system), which is the precondition of any cloud web hosting service. Let's return to the shared hosting plans, which are powered by a real cloud webspace hosting solution. With a shared site hosting plan, each client pays only for his/her account, thus maintaining the webspace hosting price very low (because multiple customers are hosted on the same hosting server). To cut a long story short, a shared hosting plan, which runs on a clustered web space hosting system, permits you to pay only for the resources that you really require, averting a scenario where you pay for an advanced web site hosting package that you cannot really use, or for a basic web site hosting package that cannot accommodate your web page. The ability to upgrade your account from one package to another with just two clicks gives you the flexibility to start with a tiny plan and upgrade as your web page grows. Hence, you economize cash that you can invest in advertising the site while it is still brand new. Each web site hosting account delivered by 'WebHost-ing.com' comes with an online site building tool and more than forty widely used script-driven software applications such as WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you hundreds of dollars for web design services. 'WebHost-ing.com' delivers shared website hosting accounts in a number of different countries across the Globe. There is one data center facility in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; two European server farms - in England and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. In this way, practically the entire planet is encompassed to present you and your visitors with a stable and fast website hosting solution at a preferred location. All in all, the shared hosting accounts provided 'WebHost-ing.com' are really well appointed and are available at an affordable price (beginning from $3.95 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To customers with little or no experience, a virtual private web server may seem difficult to handle. That's perhaps why 'WebHost-ing.com' also offers semi-dedicated web servers in its main North American data center facility in Chicago. Handling these plans is similar to managing a normal shared webspace hosting package via a web space hosting Control Panel tool. They have all the features of a shared webspace hosting account such as a fee-free site builder and a web application installation tool, but the system resource quota provided by a semi-dedicated web hosting server package is many times greater than that of a shared web hosting package. For example, the CPU power that can be used is nearly 5 times as much as compared with the shared webspace hosting accounts. When compared with a shared webspace hosting account, the quota of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting packages is enormous: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted TLD quota is a trend as well. The semi-dedicated web hosting server packages do not ship with full root access (we, at drones.us.com, consider this a tiny defect), but the good point is that they are administered through the same web space hosting Control Panel interface as the shared hosting accounts. This signifies that a recognizable graphical interface is accessible by all customers who do not have enough self-condifence to administer a VPS web server, yet require more power and supplies than a Virtual Private Server can give them. This is like that due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the reserves of the very same powerful high-end servers as the ones which host the private virtual hosting server plans, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is quite small (somewhere between twenty to thirty per server), while the virtual web hosting servers can reach a much higher number (80 to 120 per server). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers delivered by 'WebHost-ing.com' can be dubbed as being very cheap (as far as cost is concerned), starting from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 package.

Dedicated Web Servers

According to drones.us.com, huge websites such as social networks, community and business portals or famous online stores with thousands of customers need a much more powerful webspace hosting platform. It seems that the fellows from 'WebHost-ing.com' have reached the same conclusion as well. To satisfy its users' needs, 'WebHost-ing.com' delivers a number of dedicated web hosting servers that can handle millions of daily visits. That estimate stands on the hardware specifications the web servers arrive with: multi-core processors, up to four gigabytes of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of disk storage and Gigabit NICs will doubtlessly guarantee the quick and steady work of any sort of website. In 'WebHost-ing.com's opinion, the original hardware specs can be upgraded for more resource-demanding sites. We, from drones.us.com, deem that all dedicated server packages furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com' are also appropriate for setting up a hosting reseller business as each and every hosting server arrives with free-of-charge invoicing transaction software platform and a bonus domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated web hosting servers furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com' are all unmanaged. We, at drones.us.com, think that this is a slight minus, which can be righted by paying a monthly tax of $32.00 USD. So, if you demand aid, the Managed Services upgrade includes several supplementary services such as a routine backup, software installation, web hosting server surveillance and troubleshooting operations. A bouquet of Control Panel (CP) GUIs are available with each of the web servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (drones.us.com's) prediction is that the magnificent drag-and-drop File Manager included in the Hepsia CP will probably make the recourse to any FTP software useless. Our (drones.us.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers delivered by 'WebHost-ing.com' don't appear to be very modestly priced (still the Hepsia site hosting Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain name quotas will definitely make you smile), starting from $40.00 for the Atom 2c plan.
