Best web hosting services

By Elizabeth Cunningham

If you consider a website like MySpace where you can design a web site there that is entirely non-paying. It is a simple matter to add photographs, blogs, messages, videos and even music tracks with the only stipulation being that it is for social intentions only, or is meant to be. This is an excellent example of a non-paying web site, but meanwhile, MySpace uses your web page to place their own ads. You are going to be restricted on space, what kind of subject matter you can post, and naturally the site is not yours, but MySpace.

Most people and companies start their hosting by using a shared server system which means your files are on the system with other peoples.It is usually possible to upgrade to have a dedicated server for your files once you know the service provider is reliable; there is normally an additional charge for this facility. However, all this is academic if you haven't registered a domain name that you can use in conjunction with the web hosting and to send your files to.

The word 'files' is a generic term that can mean anything from video to audio tracks but be aware that basic packages do not give the most storage if you are intending to upload large files; however, as storage costs come down, companies are increasing this amount of space.

A shared server alternatively, is just like a non-paying server except you have to payout a a small amount every month to maintain your website. You can probably do more relating adverts and could even generate income by signing up for Google Adsense adverts to be positioned on your website, although you will still need to think up a domain.

The opposite to this is a dedicated server which serves only your web site and no-one elses so you have all the storage space as you want to create a website as big as you desire. You should have adequate levels of information that can be transferred to cater for all the visitors you can have, and have total control over the adverts that you place on your web site. A dedicated server is the best in website hosting because actually hosting your own private site because you have sufficient space, bandwidth and freedom to do whatever you want. Even though these types of server, while costing more, actually end up end up being less expensive, or adding to your income, if employed properly.
