An assessment of Web Hosting Giants

We, at gunfear.com, have chosen 'Web Hosting Giants' to be our present domain name and web hosting vendor. Hence we deem that this brief evaluation of 'Web Hosting Giants' is perhaps going to be quite useful for other individuals from all over the World who are searching for domain name and web hosting services. We state people from all over the Globe, since the mere truth is that 'Web Hosting Giants' presently distributes domain and hosting services in multiple datacenter locations: in the US (Chicago, IL), in the UK (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, encompassing nearly the whole Globe. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'Web Hosting Giants' in short:

Shared Hosting Accounts

The first thing we, at gunfear.com, have seen is the low-cost prices of the shared site hosting services delivered by 'Web Hosting Giants'. 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 web page hosting accounts supplied by 'Web Hosting Giants' are driven by an in-house devised, advanced cloud web hosting solution (each web hosting service, like email, databases, web site hosting Control Panel, storage space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being run on an autonomous group of hosting servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting supplier in the World will have huge complications with, because cPanel is a one single server based web page hosting platform (each web hosting service, like email, databases, webspace hosting CP, disk space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being served by a single server), cPanel is not open source (that is why the cPanel hosting firms cannot include new functionality and manipulate it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they must design their own file system), which is the precondition of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared hosting packages, which are powered by an actual cloud website hosting platform. With a shared hosting plan, each client pays just for his/her plan, thus preserving the webspace hosting price very low (since lots of clients use the same web server). In a few words, a shared hosting plan, which runs on a clustered web site hosting platform, allows you to pay just for the reserves that you really demand, avoiding a scenario where you pay for a powerful site hosting account that you cannot truly use, or for a small web site hosting package that cannot handle your web site. The option to upgrade your account from one package to another with just two mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to kick off with a low-end plan and upgrade as your web presence grows. Thus, you economize cash that you can expend on advertising the website while it is still brand new. Each and every web space hosting plan offered by 'Web Hosting Giants' boasts an online site builder and over forty popular script-driven software platforms among them WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you 100s of dollars for web site design solutions. 'Web Hosting Giants' provides shared website hosting accounts in a number of different regions across the World. There is one server farm in Chicago covering the US and Canada; two European server farms - in England and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific. Thus, nearly the whole planet is encompassed to supply you and your visitors with a stable and reliable website hosting service at a nearby location. As a whole, the shared hosting solutions delivered 'Web Hosting Giants' are very well equipped and are available at a very reasonable price (starting from $3.92 for the Business plan).

Dedicated Web Servers

In gunfear.com's opinion, enormous web pages such as social networks, community and corporate portals or famous web stores with thousands of clients demand a much more powerful website hosting environment. It appears that the guys from 'Web Hosting Giants' have come to the same conclusion too. To satisfy its users' requirements, 'Web Hosting Giants' delivers a selection of dedicated web hosting servers that can manage millions of daily hits. That estimation is based on the hardware specs the dedicated web servers boast: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of data storage and Gigabit NICs will definitely ensure the quick and stable work of any type of site. According to 'Web Hosting Giants', the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more resource-requiring sites. We, from gunfear.com, deem that all dedicated server accounts supplied by 'Web Hosting Giants' are also suitable for setting up a hosting reseller business as each dedicated hosting server comes with free-of-charge billing software and a free-of-cost domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated web hosting servers furnished by 'Web Hosting Giants' are all unmanaged. We, at gunfear.com, think that this is a little downside, which can be rectified by paying a monthly fee of $32.00 USD. So, if you are in need of help, the Managed Services upgrade offers a few additional services such as a routine backup, software installation, dedicated web server surveillance and troubleshooting operations. A handful of webspace hosting Control Panel (CP) tools are offered with each of the dedicated web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (gunfear.com's) prediction is that the magnificent drag-and-drop File Manager available in the Hepsia site hosting CP will perhaps render the recourse to any File Transfer Protocol software futile. Our (gunfear.com's) inference is that the dedicated servers offered by 'Web Hosting Giants' don't seem to be very affordably priced (still the Hepsia site hosting Control Panel and the unmetered hosted domain quotas will definitely make you smile), commencing from $145.00 for the Xeon Scalable 8c package.
