A review of WebHost-ing.com

We, at 54us.com, have chosen 'WebHost-ing.com' to be our current domain name and web hosting supplier. Hence we expect that this succinct review of 'WebHost-ing.com' is probably going to be quite useful for other people from all over the Globe who seek domain name and web hosting solutions. We state people from all around the Globe, since the mere fact is that 'WebHost-ing.com' currently furnishes domain and hosting services in numerous server farm locations: in the United States (Chicago, IL), in Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, encompassing almost the whole Globe. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'WebHost-ing.com' in a nutshell:

Shared Web Page Hosting Packages

The first thing we, at 54us.com, have noticed is the reasonable prices of the shared site hosting accounts furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared hosting. The good news here is that the web page hosting plans delivered by 'WebHost-ing.com' are driven by an in-house invented, innovative cloud web hosting solution (each hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, CP, disk space, DNS, stats, etc., is being served by a different group of web hosting servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance EVERY cPanel web hosting company on the Earth will have considerable predicaments with, because cPanel is a one-server based web site hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as email, databases, web site hosting CP, web space, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being tackled by one and the same hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel-based web space hosting distributors are unable to add new functionality and handle it the way they need it) and there is no open source file platform (they must make their own file system), which is the precondition of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared web site hosting accounts, which are driven by a genuine cloud hosting platform. With a shared hosting plan, each client pays solely for his/her plan, thus maintaining the webspace hosting price amazingly low (because lots of clients use one and the same server). In a nutshell, a shared hosting plan, which is being served by a clustered web page hosting solution, allows you to pay solely for the reserves that you really need, precluding a situation where you pay for a high-end hosting account that you cannot really use, or for a low-end web page hosting plan that cannot handle your web page. The ability to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only 2 clicks of the mouse gives you the flexibility to commence with a small plan and upgrade as your Internet presence grows. Hence, you economize cash that you can invest in publicizing the site while it is still new. Every web site hosting package furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com' ships with an online web site builder and more than forty widely used script software applications like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you hundreds of dollars for website design solutions. 'WebHost-ing.com' provides shared hosting plans in a number of different geographical regions around the World. There is one server farm facility in Chicago covering the US and Canada; two European data center facilities - in Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific. Thus, nearly the entire Globe is covered to present you and your site's visitors with a stable and reliable webspace hosting service at a preferred location. All in all, the shared hosting solutions supplied 'WebHost-ing.com' are really well equipped and come at a very good price (beginning from $3.95 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Web Servers

To people with little or no experience, a VPS web server may seem tough to administer. That's perhaps why 'WebHost-ing.com' also stores semi-dedicated web servers in its principal United States server farm facility in Chicago. Handling these accounts is comparable to handling a typical shared hosting plan via a web site hosting Control Panel user interface. They have all the functionalities of a shared web site hosting plan such as a free-of-cost site builder and a web application installer, but the system resource quota provided by a semi-dedicated hosting plan is many times larger than that of a shared site hosting package. For example, the central processing unit power that can be used is nearly 5 times as much as compared to the shared hosting packages. When matched against a shared web page hosting package, the quota of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is vast: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted domain name allowance is a trend too. The semi-dedicated hosting packages do not arrive with root access (we, at 54us.com, consider this a slight downside), but the good point is that they are managed via the very same Control Panel GUI as the shared web hosting accounts. This implies that a user-friendly graphical user interface is accessible by all customers who do not have enough confidence to administer a VPS web hosting server, but at the same time demand more power and supplies than a VPS server can deliver. This is like that because of the fact that the semi-dedicated web servers share the reserves of the same powerful top-class servers as the ones which accommodate the private virtual web server accounts, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated hosting servers is very small (somewhere between 20 to 30 per physical server), whereas the virtual private web hosting servers can reach a much greater number (eighty to one hundred and twenty per physical machine). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers offered by 'WebHost-ing.com' can be classified as being very cheap (as far as price is concerned), commencing from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

In 54us.com's opinion, big websites such as social networks, community and business portals or famous web shops with thousands of customers demand a much more powerful web page hosting environment. It seems that the guys from 'WebHost-ing.com' have come to the same conclusion as well. To meet its clients' expectations, 'WebHost-ing.com' supplies a collection of dedicated servers that can cope with millions of daily visits. That assessment is based on the hardware configurations the dedicated hosting servers ship with: many-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of web space and Gigabit network interface cards will definitely ensure the fast and steady performance of any type of website. According to 'WebHost-ing.com', the primary hardware configurations can be upgraded for more resource-requiring websites. We, from 54us.com, believe that all dedicated server accounts offered by 'WebHost-ing.com' are also appropriate for setting up a hosting reseller business as each web server offers free invoice transaction software and a complimentary domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated web servers furnished by 'WebHost-ing.com' are all unmanaged. We, at 54us.com, count this as a minor minus, which can be adjusted by paying a monthly fee which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you need help, the Managed Services upgrade offers an assortment of extra services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated server surveillance and troubleshooting operations. A number of web page hosting CP (CP) tools are offered with each of the servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (54us.com's) prediction is that the magnificent point-and-click File Manager included in the Hepsia webspace hosting CP will perhaps render the use of any FTP client futile. Our (54us.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers supplied by 'WebHost-ing.com' don't appear to be very inexpensive (yet the Hepsia CP and the unmetered hosted domain name allowance will undoubtedly make you smile), beginning from $40.00 for the Atom 2c package.
