An evaluation of Economic Hosting

We, at ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug, have chosen 'Economic Hosting' to be our present domain name and web hosting vendor. Therefore we expect that this concise review of 'Economic Hosting' is probably going to be quite helpful for other individuals from all around the World who seek domain name and web hosting solutions. We say individuals from all over the World, since the mere truth is that 'Economic Hosting' presently delivers domain and hosting services in numerous server farm facility sites: in the USA (Chicago, IL), in the United Kingdom (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, covering almost the whole planet. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'Economic Hosting' in brief:

Shared Website Hosting Plans

The first detail we, at ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug, have spotted is the inexpensive prices of the shared webspace hosting services offered by 'Economic Hosting'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good news here is that the site hosting plans provided by 'Economic Hosting' are powered by an in-house devised, state-of-the-art cloud web hosting solution (each hosting service, such as mail, databases, web space hosting Control Panel, data storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, runs on an autonomous pack of web servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance EVERY cPanel web hosting corporation in the World will have huge difficulties with, since cPanel is a one-server based web site hosting platform (each web hosting service, like email, databases, CP, disk storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being dealt with by one single web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel web site hosting companies are unable to include additional functionality and manipulate it the way they want it) and there is no open source file platform (they need to set up their own file platform), which is at the heart of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared hosting plans, which are driven by an authentic clustered web site hosting solution. With a shared web hosting account, each customer pays just for his/her plan, thus retaining the hosting price amazingly low (because numerous customers are located on one and the same hosting server). In brief, a shared hosting plan, which is being served by a cloud webspace hosting solution, permits you to pay only for the reserves that you really require, escaping a situation where you pay for a powerful web page hosting package that you cannot truly utilize, or for a low-end web site hosting plan that cannot accommodate your website. The ability to upgrade your account from one package to another with only 2 mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to start with a small package and upgrade as your Internet presence expands. So, you economize funds that you can expend on publicizing the site while it is still new. Every web page hosting package furnished by 'Economic Hosting' arrives with an online web site builder and more than 40 widely used script-driven software applications like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you 100s of dollars for web page design services. 'Economic Hosting' distributes shared hosting accounts in a number of different geographical regions across the World. There is one datacenter facility in Chicago encompassing the United States and Canada; two European datacenters - in the UK and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. That way, nearly the whole World is covered to supply you and your web page's visitors with a steady and reliable web hosting solution at a nearby place. All in all, the shared hosting solutions offered 'Economic Hosting' are very well equipped and are available at a very reasonable price (starting from €5.00 for the Business package).

Semi-dedicated Servers

To clients with little to no experience, a virtual private hosting server may appear hard to administer. That's probably why 'Economic Hosting' also stores semi-dedicated web hosting servers in its principal North American datacenter facility in Chicago. Managing these plans is similar to administering a normal shared site hosting package via a hosting Control Panel user interface. They have all the features of a shared webspace hosting plan such as a fee-free site building tool and a web app installer, but the system resource quota typical of a semi-dedicated web server hosting account is many times bigger than that of a shared web site hosting package. For instance, the central processing unit power that can be used is approximately FIVE times as much as compared with the shared web page hosting plans. When juxtaposed to a shared website hosting plan, the number of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is huge: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted domain allowance is a norm too. The semi-dedicated hosting packages do not come with full root privileges (we, at ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug, think that this is a minor problem), but the benefit is that they are managed via the same web site hosting Control Panel tool as the shared site hosting packages. This goes to say that a known GUI is accessible by all clients who do not have enough confidence to administer a VPS server, but at the same time demand more power and system resources than a private virtual server can provide them with. This is like that due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web servers share the system resources of the very same powerful leading edge web hosting servers as the ones which accommodate the virtual web hosting server accounts, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is very low (somewhere between twenty to thirty per server), whereas the virtual web hosting servers can reach a much higher number (80 to a hundred and twenty per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers offered by 'Economic Hosting' can be classified as being quite affordable (as far as cost is concerned), beginning from €20.07 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Servers

In ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug's opinion, large web pages such as social networks, community and business web portals or popular web shops with thousands of clients demand a much more powerful web hosting environment. It appears that the chaps from 'Economic Hosting' have reached the same conclusion as well. To satisfy its clients' demands, 'Economic Hosting' provides an assortment of dedicated web servers that can cope with millions of daily hits. That estimation rests on the hardware specifications the web servers are offering: multi-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of web space and Gigabit network interface cards will no doubt ensure the fast and stable work of any kind of site. In 'Economic Hosting's opinion, the original hardware specs can be upgraded for more resource-requiring websites. We, from ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug, consider that all dedicated server specs furnished by 'Economic Hosting' are also suitable for setting up a hosting reseller business as each and every dedicated web server arrives with free-of-cost invoicing software and a cost-free domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated web servers provided by 'Economic Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug, consider this a small drawback, which can be amended by paying a monthly tax which amounts to €32.20 EUR. So, if you require backing, the Managed Services upgrade includes a few supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. A bouquet of web space hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are available with each of the dedicated hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug's) prognosis is that the magnificent drag and drop File Manager added in the Hepsia webspace hosting Control Panel will probably make the use of any File Transfer Protocol client useless. Our (ugandaorthodoxchurch.co.ug's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers offered by 'Economic Hosting' don't seem to be very cheap (yet the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and the unmetered hosted domain name quotas will doubtlessly make you smile), beginning from €59.69 for the Xeon E3 v3 plan.
