A survey of Affiliate Web Hosting

We, at tory.net.au, have chosen 'Affiliate Web Hosting' to be our current domain and web hosting provider. Hence we consider that this concise review of 'Affiliate Web Hosting' is perchance going to be very helpful for other individuals from all around the World who seek domain name and web hosting services. We state individuals from all over the World, because the mere truth is that 'Affiliate Web Hosting' currently supplies domain and hosting services in multiple data center facility sites: in the United States (Chicago, IL), in England (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, encompassing virtually the entire Globe. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'Affiliate Web Hosting' in a few words:

Shared Web Hosting Packages

The initial thing we, at tory.net.au, have discerned is the modest prices of the shared web site hosting solutions delivered by 'Affiliate Web Hosting'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared hosting. The good news here is that the website hosting packages offered by 'Affiliate Web Hosting' are driven by an in-house devised, cutting edge cloud web hosting solution (each web hosting service, such as email, databases, website hosting CP, disk space, DNS, stats, etc., is being dealt with by an autonomous group of web servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting firm in the World will have enormous problems with, because cPanel is a single server based site hosting platform (each web hosting service, like mail, databases, CP, disk space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being tackled by one and the same hosting server), cPanel is not open source (that is why the cPanel-based website hosting distributors cannot include additional functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file system (they need to develop their own file platform), which is the foundation of any cloud web hosting service. Let's return to the shared web hosting accounts, which are powered by a real clustered hosting platform. With a shared web hosting package, each customer pays only for his/her plan, thus keeping the price really low (since numerous users are hosted on the same server). In short, a shared hosting plan, which runs on a cloud site hosting solution, permits you to pay only for the reserves that you actually require, avoiding a situation where you pay for a feature-rich web space hosting plan that you cannot really use, or for a basic web site hosting package that cannot accommodate your web site. The option to upgrade your account from one plan to another with just 2 clicks of the mouse grants you the flexibility to start with a small package and upgrade as your web page grows. In this way, you spare money that you can invest in publicizing the site while it is still brand new. Each and every website hosting account offered by 'Affiliate Web Hosting' sports an online site building tool and more than forty widely used script-driven software applications like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you 100s of dollars for web page design services. 'Affiliate Web Hosting' furnishes shared web page hosting solutions in a number of different countries around the World. There is one datacenter facility in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; two European server farms - in Great Britain and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific. Hence, almost the whole World is covered to provide you and your website's visitors with a stable and reliable web hosting service at a preferred place. All in all, the shared hosting accounts offered 'Affiliate Web Hosting' are very well equipped and come at an affordable price (starting from $4.75 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To customers with little to no practice, a private virtual server may seem troublesome to handle. That's probably why 'Affiliate Web Hosting' also hosts semi-dedicated web hosting servers in its principal North American data center in Chicago. Handling these plans is comparable to administering a regular shared hosting package via a web site hosting CP interface. They have all the features of a shared web page hosting plan such as a fee-free website building tool and a script installer, but the system resource quota offered by a semi-dedicated hosting account is many times bigger than that of a shared web hosting package. For example, the CPU power that can be utilized is about FIVE times as much as compared with the shared packages. When contrasted with a shared web page hosting plan, the number of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting packages is great: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted domain quota is a trend too. The semi-dedicated web hosting server accounts do not include full root privileges (we, at tory.net.au, consider this a minor inconvenience), but the benefit is that they are managed through the very same web space hosting CP interface as the shared web site hosting packages. This goes to say that a well-known GUI is accessible by all clients who are not self-confident enough to manage a virtual web hosting server, but at the same time require more power and resources than a private virtual hosting server can deliver. This is like that due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the resources of the same powerful high-class servers as the ones which accommodate the virtual private web server accounts, however, the number of the semi-dedicated hosting servers is quite small (somewhere between 20 to 30 per physical machine), while the private virtual web hosting servers can reach a much higher number (80 to one hundred and twenty per physical server). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers offered by 'Affiliate Web Hosting' can be dubbed as being amazingly affordable (as far as price is concerned), beginning from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Servers

In tory.net.au's opinion, huge web sites such as social networks, community and corporate portals or famous online shops with 1000s of clients need a much more powerful web page hosting solution. It appears that the folks from 'Affiliate Web Hosting' have arrived at the same conclusion too. To live up to its users' requirements, 'Affiliate Web Hosting' provides an assortment of dedicated web hosting servers that can handle millions of daily visits. That estimation is based on the hardware specs the servers sport: multi-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of disk space and Gigabit network interface cards will no doubt guarantee the quick and stable work of any kind of web site. In 'Affiliate Web Hosting's opinion, the original hardware specs can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring web sites. We, from tory.net.au, deem that all dedicated server packages supplied by 'Affiliate Web Hosting' are also suitable for kickstarting a hosting reseller business as every dedicated server provides free-of-cost billing software and a cost-free domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated servers delivered by 'Affiliate Web Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at tory.net.au, consider this a small minus, which can be rectified by paying a monthly fee which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you demand support, the Managed Services upgrade includes a handful of supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated web server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. Several web page hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are offered with each of the hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (tory.net.au's) prognosis is that the splendid drag and drop File Manager available in the Hepsia web hosting CP will perhaps render the use of any FTP software program useless. Our (tory.net.au's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers delivered by 'Affiliate Web Hosting' don't seem to be very cheap (yet the Hepsia webspace hosting CP and the unmetered hosted domain name quotas will doubtlessly make you smile), beginning from $80.00 for the Xeon E3 v5 package.
