Variations of Web Hosting and its Benefits

Web hosting makes websites available on the internet for anyone to access from anywhere in the world. As it becomes a necessity, web hosting services are even offered for free.

There are many kinds of web hosting services and every website's requirements will vary. There are free web hosting services where user can host a web page for free. Such companies are usually powered through advertisements of linking. Most people use free hosting services for personal website that don't need much database support.

There's the shared web hosting, where a website will share server space with many other websites. Sometimes, the space may be shared with hundreds or even thousands. Another is clustered hosting where several servers host the same web page. Managed web hosting allows user to host his own web page but will not be given complete control of the server, thus limiting his ability to modify or make changes. The server space here is leased to client without ownership.

Dedicated web hosting, on the other hand, gives user complete control and ownership. User will be allowed to manage the web page the way he wants. Web managers here will need to know about web hosting and have enough knowledge for the job. Virtual dedicated web hosting gives user a server so they feel like they are using their own server but in reality, they are sharing the server with many others. Such users will be given access to the virtual space.

Reseller web hosting is for those who want to host web pages and make some money. Reseller web hosting accounts come in many sizes and have individual names. However, the most expensive kind of web hosting is collocation. Here, the physical space is given by the web hosting company and the users will own the colo servers. The users will be given some facilities like storage and internet.

Web hosting requirements differ according to individual so make sure you know what you are looking for in order to find the right one.
