The world is a global
village today and this is greatly because of the sudden upsurge in the internet
based information that circulates between individuals and agencies. When we
think of such webpages, it should be brought into our notice that a long and
quite complicated pipeline works behind showing you a return on the World Wide
Web.
Depending on your needs
for a single webpage or more complex features like SSL encryption, PHP Hosting etc. there are
different packages that one can choose from. The rates usually vary according
to the services and features included and a comparative study of the different
providers is a great thought while looking for the service online. Written
below are pointers that may guide you to make this essential decision.
A help guide to
different features to look for
A basic thing that all users should look for in
a hosting service is the availability of advanced features along with the
basics that come along with a package. Most good hosting companies have three
or more packages, starter, basic, advanced and premium which are different with
respect to the number and limit of the various parameters like bandwidth, space
on the w WWW network, number of websites allowed in the space and of course
their set up and monthly fees.
What are the general
hosting features?
One of the most basic ones is the space that you
are given on the space. Starting from a 5 GB plan and going as high as the
unlimited mark, you have to make this decision depending on the size of the
webpage or a series of websites you wish to publish.
The total number of email accounts that a user
may have may start with one and if you choose to opt for the higher end
packages, will surmount to 250!
The next will be the bandwidth which although
users neglect often is a big determining factor in deciding how refined the viewers see the webpage. It is also a
big turner in the price bracket of the package.
Host buddy -
PHP Hosting packages include like other
good host companies, a choice between windows and UNIX OS. Some of the
applications that run the best on the open LINUX platform include wordpress,
the Magento shop cart and the ones running best on windows are nopcommerce shop
cart, umbraco building software etc. a little knowledge about the nature of the
webpage activity is sure to help you choose better.
Now coming to some
advanced options, the choice of the programming language like PHP, ASP.Net,
Python or Java makes the webpage quite interactive. For example, many users
want their websites to allow viewers to upload images and create databases for
indexed searches etc. all of which need these languages. Moreover, MSSQL or
MySQL databases are also features that may interest you.
