An evaluation of WebHost-ing.com

We, at 1buckskin.com, have chosen 'WebHost-ing.com' to be our current domain name and hosting distributor. This is why we anticipate that this succinct review of 'WebHost-ing.com' is probably going to be very useful for other folks from all over the Globe who need domain name and web hosting solutions. We state folks from all over the Globe, since the mere truth is that 'WebHost-ing.com' presently provides domain and hosting services in multiple server farm locations: in the US (Chicago, IL), in Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thereby, covering almost the whole Earth. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'WebHost-ing.com' in short:

Shared Webspace Hosting Plans

The initial detail we, at 1buckskin.com, have seen is the modest prices of the shared web hosting accounts 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 site hosting plans furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com' are powered by a custom devised, modern cloud web hosting solution (each hosting service, like mail, databases, web site hosting Control Panel, disk space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being handled by a separate group of servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance EVERY cPanel web hosting distributor in the World will have mammoth problems with, since cPanel is a one single server based hosting environment (each web hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, hosting CP, disk storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being served by a single hosting server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel web hosting companies cannot add extra functionality and manipulate it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they must make their own file system), which is the precondition of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared site hosting accounts, which are powered by a real clustered hosting platform. With a shared site hosting package, each customer pays just for his/her account, thus maintaining the web hosting price really low (since lots of users are hosted on one and the same web server). To cut a long story short, a shared hosting plan, which runs on a cloud web site hosting system, enables you to pay just for the reserves that you actually demand, escaping a situation where you pay for an advanced hosting package that you cannot actually use, or for a tiny web site hosting plan that cannot host your web page. The ability to upgrade your account from one package to another with only 2 mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to begin with a basic plan and upgrade as your web page grows. In this way, you save capital that you can invest in advertising the site while it is still new. Each and every webspace hosting package delivered by 'WebHost-ing.com' contains an online web site builder and more than forty widely used script software platforms like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you 100s of dollars for web design services. 'WebHost-ing.com' distributes shared webspace hosting solutions in a number of different regions around the Globe. There is one datacenter facility in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; two European data center facilities - in the UK and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific. Thus, virtually the entire Globe is encompassed to present you and your web site's visitors with a steady and reliable web space hosting service at a desired location. On the whole, the shared hosting packages supplied 'WebHost-ing.com' are really well stocked and are available at an excellent price (starting from $4.20 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To clients with little or no experience, a private virtual web hosting server may seem difficult to handle. That's probably why 'WebHost-ing.com' also hosts semi-dedicated web servers in its principal North American datacenter facility in Chicago. Managing these plans is similar to administering a standard shared hosting package via a hosting CP GUI. They have all the features of a shared web hosting account such as a free site builder and a PHP script installer, but the system resource quota offered by a semi-dedicated web server hosting package is many times greater than that of a shared web page hosting package. For example, the CPU power that can be utilized is about FIVE times as much as compared to the shared hosting accounts. When compared with a shared website hosting account, the number of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is enormous: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted Top-Level Domain quota is a trend as well. The semi-dedicated hosting accounts do not arrive with root-level access (we, at 1buckskin.com, regard this as a small downside), but the benefit is that they are administered through the same hosting Control Panel tool as the shared site hosting plans. This means that a user-friendly graphical environment is offered to all users who do not have enough confidence to handle a virtual private web server, but at the same time need more power and system resources than a private virtual server can supply them with. This is so due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the system resources of the same powerful leading edge hosting servers as the ones which host the virtual private hosting server plans, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated web hosting servers is very small (somewhere between 20 to thirty per server), while the virtual web servers can reach a much higher number (80 to one hundred and twenty per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers delivered by 'WebHost-ing.com' can be defined as being amazingly inexpensive (as far as cost is concerned), starting from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

In 1buckskin.com's opinion, large websites such as social networks, community and corporate web portals or famous online storefronts with 1000s of customers require a much more powerful website hosting solution. It seems that the chaps from 'WebHost-ing.com' have come to the same conclusion too. To satisfy its users' demands, 'WebHost-ing.com' provides an array of dedicated servers that can cope with millions of daily hits. That evaluation rests on the hardware configurations the web servers include: multi-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, 2000 gigabytes of disk space and Gigabit NICs will beyond doubt guarantee the fast and steady performance of any kind of web site. According to 'WebHost-ing.com', the original hardware specifications can be upgraded for more resource-demanding web sites. We, from 1buckskin.com, believe that all dedicated server plans furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com' are also suitable for initiating a hosting reseller business as each and every server arrives with free-of-cost billing transaction software and a fee-free domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated hosting servers delivered by 'WebHost-ing.com' are all unmanaged. We, at 1buckskin.com, think that this is a small defect, which can be amended by paying a monthly tax of $32.00 USD. So, if you need backing, the Managed Services upgrade offers a handful of additional services such as a routine backup, software installation, dedicated web server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. A handful of web page hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are available with each of the dedicated web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (1buckskin.com's) prognosis is that the amazing point-and-click File Manager offered by the Hepsia web site hosting Control Panel will probably make the recourse to any File Transfer Protocol software useless. Our (1buckskin.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers offered by 'WebHost-ing.com' don't appear to be very affordably priced (yet the Hepsia web page hosting CP and the unlimited hosted domain name quotas will no doubt make you smile), commencing from $40.00 for the Atom 2c plan.
