Choosing the best web Hosting partner or service can be a daunting task and for all the right reasons. You website is basically your internet facade and it has to look attractive to gain attention. It is not just about attracting consumers to your website, there are a lot many factors that go into retaining them.

In the recent years when people’s patience level has hit its low, it is necessary to have your website available to them in the blink of an eye. Also, it is always a good idea to select an accurate service and a service provider to host your website especially when there are so many of them out there. Since Web Werks is already in the business we’d like to share our two cents in the topic.

Which services are available in the market?

Shared hosting: A shared hosting is when you have to share a Server and its resources with other clients of the provider. The host is in complete control of the resources in these cases. The service is probably cheaper than many on the list due to the fact that you share the same resources with many others just like you.

The drawback to shared hosting is that since there are many other clients that are sharing the same resources and the traffic coming from their websites too is handled by the same server. This can seriously degrades the performance of your website. Moreover, you will also not be able to install special software programs, as it is difficult for the host to create a stable platform for everyone sharing the same server.

Dedicated Server Hosting:

As the name suggests the dedicated server will be hosting only one website to which the server is allocated. This way businesses have access to all the resources available on the server solely to themselves. Also, it requires quite a lot of effort since the maintenance and management of the server is completely in the hands of the users.

VPS (Virtual Private Server):

A Virtual Private Server offers complete access just like in a dedicated server but only at the fraction of the cost. A VPS also provides users with access to mail servers, control panel, firewall configurations, and managed backups.

Though a VPS is your very own server the unit itself is partitioned into multiple servers that are highly configurable. It provides more flexibility than shared hosting.

Cloud Server:

Cloud is the latest entrant to the web hosting business, but its age hasn’t affected its popularity. It has taken the hosting world by storm that doesn’t seem to abate anytime soon. The reason why almost every online business chooses the cloud is its flexibility. Along with being extremely flexible the cloud is also reliable, efficient and cost effective.

Colocation:

A colocation service is when you rent space, electricity and cooling from a service provider for your server. In short you will be the one to provide the resources on your unit and the host will take care of it. But you also have to keep in mind that providers offer options like managed colocation and unmanaged colocation.
