How Does Shared Hosting Operate?

If you are looking for an affordable website hosting service, the service for you is called hosting.

What Is Hosting?

Over the years, the need for web hosting solutions has escalated vastly, but customers also like inexpensive prices. The solution web hosts have devised is called hosting. These hosting companies accommodate a lot of customers on one and the same web server, making certain that they do not intervene with each other by placing restrictions on the server resources each hosting account is permitted to use. This allows for both reliable performance and lower operating costs as compared with a dedicated server, which is utilized by only a single client, and permits web hosting suppliers to offer modest prices to their customers.

What can you achieve with a hosting account?

The hosting accounts typically come with diverse website, e-mail and database management tools - a hosting Control Panel, a File Manager tool, a File Transfer Protocol software client, a phpMyAdmin interface, and usually webmail - to check your email mailbox accounts. At Helios Host, we provide all these features at moderate rates. We have both monthly and annual invoicing options and also offer a cheap domain name registration with each of our shared web hosting plans. You can also administer everything from one and the same location with us - our intuitive hosting Control Panel offers all the functionalities you need to handle your web site files, DNS records, register and renew more domain names, create e-mailbox accounts and mailbox aliases, enable e-mail forwarding and auto-configure your electronic mail software client. How many domain names you can host in your shared hosting account depends on the website hosting plan you have, but monthly bandwidth and hosting server hard disk space are unlimited - you are solely restricted when it comes to the central processing unit allocation and the number of hosted domains.

Backup

Apart from all the conventional tools, it is extremely essential when the website hosting accounts provider makes certain that your data is intact. Therefore, the presence of everyday backups is decisive and you should check in advance if the web hosting services provider of your choosing is offering such. We perform day-to-day backups and preserves backups for the past one week. The backup contains your web site files and databases and to have it retrieved, you have to touch base with our technical support department. They reply in less than one hour, so if you deleted those web site files fortuitously - do not panic, hope still abides!
