What Does Shared Website Hosting Represent?

If you are seeking a modestly priced website hosting solution, the solution for you is called web hosting.

What Is Web Hosting?

Over the years, the need for hosting solutions has expanded immensely, but customers also prefer reasonable prices. The service web hosting vendors have devised is called web hosting. These hosting distributors host numerous clients on one and the very same hosting server, ensuring that they do not interfere with each other by setting limitations on the resources each shared hosting account is allowed to avail of. This allows for both satisfactory performance and lower maintenance costs in contrast to a dedicated hosting, which is used by only a single user, and permits web hosting distributors to offer cheap prices to their clients.

What can you do with a web hosting account?

The web hosting accounts normally include various website, mail and database administration tools - a web hosting Control Panel, a File Manager interface, an FTP client, a phpMyAdmin tool, and usually webmail - to check your mailboxes. At MEGAHOST, we provide all these features at budget rates. We offer both monthly and annual billing options and also offer a cheap domain registration with each of our shared web hosting plans. You can also administer everything from one single place with us - our user-friendly web hosting CP has all the functionalities you need to manage your website files, Domain Name System resource records, register and renew more domain names, set up email mailbox accounts and email aliases, activate e-mail forwarding and automatically configure your mail software client. How many domains you can accommodate in your shared account is dependent on the hosting plan you have, but web traffic and web hosting server disk drive storage space are unmetered - you are only limited when it comes to the central processing unit utilization and the amount of hosted domains.

Backup

Aside from all the traditional tools, it is very important when the website hosting company makes sure that your web hosting content is intact. That is why the presence of scheduled backups is essential and you should make certain in advance if the web hosting plans provider of your choosing is offering such. We offer everyday backups and keeps backups for the last week. The backup consists of your web site files and databases and to have it restored, you need to touch base with our technical support department. They answer in less than one hour, so if you erased those files accidentally - do not panic, hope still exists!
