How Shared Website Hosting Operates

If you are seeking a low-priced hosting service, the service for you is called hosting.

What Is Hosting?

Over the years, the demand for website hosting services has increased hugely, but people also prefer modest prices. The solution web hosting vendors have devised is called hosting. These web hosts host many customers on one and the same hosting server, making certain that they do not interfere with each other by imposing limitations on the resources each hosting account is allowed to utilize. This allows for both decent performance and lower operating costs in contrast to a dedicated server, which is utilized by only one user, and enables hosting distributors to offer inexpensive prices to their customers.

What can you accomplish with a hosting account?

The hosting accounts usually come with various web site, email and database administration tools - a Control Panel, a File Manager interface, a File Transfer Protocol software client, a phpMyAdmin tool, and normally webmail - to access your mail accounts. At Melanesia Web Hosting, we offer all these tools at modest rates. We offer both monthly and annual invoicing options and also provide a cheap domain registration with each of our shared hosting plans. You can also manage everything from a single place with us - our easy-to-use web hosting Control Panel includes all the functions you need to handle your files, Domain Name System records, register and renew more domains, create email mailbox accounts and electronic mail aliases, activate e-mail forwarding and auto-configure your e-mail software client. How many domains you can accommodate in your web hosting account is determined by the website hosting plan you have, but web traffic and server hard disk space are unlimited - you are only limited when it comes to the CPU usage and the quantity of hosted domain names.

Backup

Apart from all the usual features, it is very important when the website hosting provider guarantees that your data is secure. That is the reason why the availability of periodic backups is compulsory and you should establish in advance if the hosting services provider of your choosing is offering such. We perform daily backups and maintains backups for the last week. The backup comprises your website files and databases and to have it repaired, you have to speak with our technical support staff. They get back to you in less than an hour, so if you deleted those website files fortuitously - do not be terrified, hope dies last!
