What is WordPress?

WordPress is an open source website management and building tool. Open source means that it wasn’t just made by one / a set of developers, it can be added to by anyone who has a good idea and knows how to build it. That’s partly what’s great about WordPress, because it’s constantly evolving with new and better features. There’s also a wealth of plugins to choose from to make your website look better or be more functional - as of October 15’, there are 40,000+ plugins with 1,000,000,000+ total downloads.

The most popular plugins help with SEO, analytics, selling (ecommerce) and page speed, with new and better plugins being developed daily. This makes WordPress a great place to build a website, your website will be great today and great throughout the future, and it doesn't cost any extra on top of hosting costs!

Wordpress is a brilliant tool for building a website, but it can be slightly confusing if you're not familiar with the process of building a website yourself. You can find yourself somewhat overwhelmed with the options and tools, it's certainly a lot more confusing than a drag and drop website builder, due to the fact that it's WYSIWYG based (what you see is what you get). Your changes can't necessarily be seen in real time, making it slower to work / progress with.

Unlike other types of website building software, the templates with WordPress are mostly paid, certainly if you want a good looking, original design. If you opt for a free template, it can be quite obvious that you have held back on expenses whilst building the site, painting it in a worse light, especially if you stick with the default option.

If you are computing inclined, you can edit the HTML of the website you are building, which allows for super customisability (that is if you know what you are doing!). WordPress is special in this aspect because on a few other website building services it isn't possible to play with the root code of the website, which is sometimes a vital feature for the more serious webmasters.

It's likely that you've used a WordPress site before, as 19% of the world's websites are built and depend on WordPress. (That's 75 million!) Now is the time to get involved!

How Does Cloud Website Hosting Work?

Actually, the real cloud website hosting solution serves different web hosting services such as web space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, and so on, on independent hosts of top-quality web servers. Each single service group generates a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the given service and nothing apart from it. They will all work as one single web server, sharing the service's load in nearly equivalent proportions. If there is a genuine cloud website hosting service, there has to be: a disk space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a website hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will produce the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The huge cloud web hosting deceit. Very popular at the moment.

There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud hosting these days. As you can see, cloud website hosting does not only seem complicated, but in reality it is highly perplexing. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud website hosting is. On the basis of this widespread unawareness, the "cloud website hosting suppliers" speculate fervently, just to get hold of the customer and his/her five dollars per month. What a disgrace! An enormous shame. This is owing to the fact that in the website hosting business niche there are no statutes at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such supervisory body. That is why the website hosting companies speculate and lie blatantly (quite bluntly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's determine how much cloud hosting they actually can offer.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting companies

If a cPanel-based web hosting merchant has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is quite unbelievable, loads of servers have to be secured. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this story. First off, let's find out what the cloud problems are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel web hosting trader to keep the cloud web hosting platform at hand, due to the fact that devising one demands years. Even when time and the provision of a professional staff are not an issue, a lot of money has to be invested as well. Heaps of money. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast downside.

The deficiency of open source cloud website hosting environments

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting platforms. There aren't any open source hosting Control Panel interfaces (operating with the cloud website hosting solution) either. So, to have a cloud website hosting solution at hand, first of all you must build one. In-house. In the second place, you have to create the website hosting CP as well.

One server-based CPs

Modern website hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are devised to function on one single web server only. All web hosting services (disk storage, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served at one and the same time on a single web server where these specific single-server web hosting systems and CPs are set up.

The lack of open source Control Panels

So, you must create a custom website hosting Control Panel that will run unproblematically and to integrate it within the cloud system, as if it was an inherent component of it. Appropriate instances of custom manufactured cloud web hosting platforms with custom manufactured CPs besides us, at 101 Ultimate Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware provision charges

The minimum contribution demanded, only for the cloud website hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between $60,000 USD and 80 thousand dollars. That's excluding the DDoS mechanism, which is another $15-20,000. Now you do know how many cloud website hosting solutions can be stumbled upon out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so blue... and virtually cloudless!

If you are running a heavy resource-absorbing website with an ever-expanding number of visitors, page hits and file downloads, but cannot afford a dedicated web server to cope with the expanded load, then explore our cost-effective VPS hosting.

How Do Dedicated Hosting Servers Work? + Dedicated serverhosting (USA)

How Do Dedicated Hosting Servers Work?

Corporate web pages, social networks and video sharing web sites are very famous and heavy web portals that demand lots of system resources to perform. The more viewers a web page is having concurrently, the more resources will be demanded to cope with all the requests from the customers' web browsers and to process them. Therefore a dedicated server would be the optimum hosting platform for such portals.

With a Dedicated Server - All of the Resources are for You

Buying a dedicated server implies that you get an entire hosting server at your disposal. As opposed to the hosting services or the VPS hosting platform where you share a web hosting server with a given number of other users, with a dedicated server you can utilize all the resources for your web pages' demands.

Dedicated Server Hardware Equipment

There are diverse hosting server configurations that you can get. They vary when it comes to the hardware specs they include - processors, RAM amounts, hard disk drives, network interface cards, but they may also include a monthly bandwidth restriction. For a highly visited web site, or if you desire to host lots of web sites on one single web server, you may consider a more avant-garde architecture.

Running Dedicated? How Much? That's the Question.

At 101 Ultimate Hosting we supply an array of configurations to meet the requirements of every customer - from a small server for one web page to an extremely avant-garde architecture that can handle very heavy portals and thousands of visitors at any particular moment. The central processing unit and data space quotas and the database connections can be confined solely by the server hardware itself.

Dedicated Hosting - Advantages and web hosting CPs

One important advantage of the dedicated hosting over a shared hosting package is that you are granted full server root privileges, so you can install any software program that you wish. Some electronic commerce shopping cart software applications, for example, need extra software that cannot be installed on a shared server as it would influence all the users on it. With a dedicated server, you have full freedom to install anything. You can manage the web hosting server either by availing of the SSH network protocol, or via a web hosting Control Panel GUI. Here, you have an alternative again. You can make use of a web hosting CP supplied by the website hosting company, or you can use your own one. Some well-known website hosting CP interfaces are Hepsia, cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin and H-Sphere. Most web hosting Control Panel interfaces are licence-free (Hepsia), while others (cPanel) demand a monthly licence tax to utilize them.

Turn Your Dedicated Hosting Server Into a Money Making Machine

Together with the option to host your very own domain name, a dedicated server offers you the chance to establish your own personal website hosting firm and to offer web hosting plans to other people. Various website hosting Control Panel GUIs come with a hosting reseller admin software supplement, so if you get an invoice transaction & client support solution such as WHMCS, AWBS or ClientExec, you can kick off your hosting business, creating an array of website hosting packages for your future clients. You can also offer support to your customers directly, and, since you have complete root-level access, you can install software applications on demand, so your clients will be satisfied with the service they get.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Services

We also provide an additional paid administration service. Our system administrators will aid you with any predicament that you may have with your dedicated hosting - an OS update, a script activation, a troubleshooting operation, or any other complication that you may stumble upon.

A dedicated server - the Paramount Website Hosting Environment

A dedicated server is the extreme website hosting solution if you seek an avant-garde and reliable web hosting service without worrying about exceeding any quota limitations. Whether you will host your own portals, or you are a site designer with multiple customers and need storage space for your work, or you desire to make some decent money by reselling the web hosting server disk space to others, a dedicated hosting server will give you the autonomy that no other website hosting solution can.
