What Does Shared Website Hosting Mean?

If you are seeking an affordably priced website hosting solution, the solution for you is called shared hosting.

What Is Shared Hosting?

Over the years, the need for hosting solutions has escalated greatly, but users also want low prices. The service hosting suppliers have come up with is called shared hosting. These service providers host lots of clients on one web server, making certain that they do not intervene with each other by setting limitations on the server resources each web hosting account is allowed to avail of. This allows for both stable performance and lower operating costs in comparison to a dedicated server, which is used by just a single individual, and permits web hosts to offer moderate prices to their customers.

What can you achieve with a shared hosting account?

The shared hosting accounts usually come with diverse website, electronic mail and database management tools - a web hosting Control Panel, a File Manager tool, a File Transfer Protocol client, a phpMyAdmin interface, and normally webmail - to check your mailbox accounts. At STEERWEB, we provide all these features at reasonable rates. We have both monthly and annual invoicing options and also offer a cheap domain registration with each of our shared hosting plans. You can also manage everything from a single location with us - our intuitive web hosting Control Panel offers all the functions you need to manage your web files, Domain Name System records, register and renew more domains, create mailbox accounts and electronic mail aliases, activate e-mail forwarding and automatically configure your e-mail client software. How many domain names you can accommodate in your shared web hosting account is determined by the website hosting package you have, but bandwidth and server space are unlimited - you are only restricted when it comes to the central processing unit allocation and the amount of hosted domain names.

Backup

Apart from all the usual tools, it is extremely important when the website hosting vendor ensures that your web hosting data is guarded. Hence, the availability of daily backups is obligatory and you should determine in advance if the web hosting solutions provider of your choice is offering such. We offer everyday backups and maintains backups for the last seven days.
