As its name signifies, shared hosting is a solution, which entails hosting web content. There are different forms and kinds of web hosting, depending on the aims and on the functions. Yet, they all pertain to hosting files, which, once hosted, are made accessible through the Internet. A host is in fact a web hosting service that is linked to the World Wide Web and has its own Internet Protocol address, which allows people to have access to it via the World Wide Web. The hosting server's architecture and its system resources depend on the form of web hosting service it will be utilized for.

What are the various types of web hosting?

Based on the usage, the business hosting solution may be:

File Hosting - this type of web hosting enables the customers to accommodate their files on a specific web hosting server. With the ordinary file hosting solution, the files that are stashed may only be accessed by the user that's availing of the service. This hosting service generally entails backups of PCs , docs, personal files and even other hosting servers. This solution may also impose given limitations in terms of the data storage and the root privileges. There may also be traffic limits, but that depends on the actual web hosting service provider.

Warez Web Hosting - the so-called warez hosting solution is comparable with the previous hosting service type. However, in contrast with the file storage hosting solution, the warez hosting solution is used for disseminating copyrighted materials without being given the go-ahead by the patent holder. To put it briefly - it entails the unlawful transmission of files and docs. There are a lot of approaches for this to be performed, but the two main ways are - through simple Hypertext Transfer Protocol downloading and via peer-to-peer connections. The first one involves either a given website, or, most often, just a directory on a web hosting server that's been made available for everyone to access it and thus download copyrighted materials free of charge. The second approach involves a peer-to-peer connection, utilizing the so-called Torrent servers, through which users share files between each other. There are a few web hosting providers that permit that type of web hosting on their web servers, mainly because of all the legal troubles that it involves. Commonly such web portals are hosted on private dedicated hosting servers that are registered by 3rd party firms either in the Middle East or in Asia.

E-mail Web Hosting - this service is utilized with both shared hosting and dedicated servers, based on the customer's desire. If you want to run your own private SMTP server, then you will require either a VPS server or a dedicated server that offers the level of access needed to execute such a task. For customary e-mail web hosting purposes, though, you can open a regular shared website hosting account, to which you can point the MX records of your domain. This is not a service that's widely popular, since the web hosting and the e-mail hosting services are being served by 2 different servers, often belonging to separate web hosts.

Shared Hosting - the most famous and regularly utilized hosting service as of now. It's used for hosting website files, whose type is dependent on the Operating System the server is using - Linux or Windows. Different types of files necessitate different web server Operating Systems, or else they won't be shown accurately on the World Wide Web. This kind of web hosting may contain web storage space and traffic limitations, server root access and CPU usage limits.

Based on the aims and on the objectives, the customer should pick the type of hosting server that he needs for his project, and, of course, the webspace hosting firm that's going to furnish it. There are various kinds of hosting servers, based on the specs and the hosting solutions that they offer. These are:

Shared Website Hosting Server - a shared website hosting server includes a smaller quantity of system resources, which, of course, is manifested in the cost of the service. It can be utilized for hosting small scale and medium scale sites, which do not need enormous quantities of server space and web traffic.

Semi-dedicated Hosting - they are based on the very same principle as the shared web hosting servers. Yet, there are much less customers hosted on the same web hosting server. Hence, each of them will get a greater share of the web server's resources like RAM, web storage space, traffic and CPU. Perfect for hosting bulky sites that do not require full root-level access.

VPS are excellent for medium scale online portals, which do require root-level access to the server's config files. Commonly, there are a number of private virtual server accounts situated on the same physical machine. However, each of them is isolated from the other ones and runs its own OS.

Dedicated Server - a fully dedicated physical machine set up and accessed by you and solely you. It guarantees a vast quantity of system resources. It also gives complete root-level access, which renders it a perfect environment for any type of web portal that necessitates a web site hosting service.

The sole question that remains is:

Which hosting firm should I pick?

As mentioned above, there are not many hosting companies offering warez hosting solutions because of legal complications. Such hosting companies are being shut down almost every month. Because of that, if you desire to set up such a service, you should do it on your very own PC. The shared web space hosting service is the most famous kind of hosting service. Therefore, every website hosting distributor offers it. Not all of them, however, provide services such as private virtual web hosting servers, Semi-dedicated Hosting and dedicated servers. Most of the small sized webspace hosting companies do not have the means required for maintaining those services. You can quickly identify such hosts by the kinds of services that they are supplying and by the manner in which they present them to the clients. For instance, some providers permit you to begin with a smaller webspace hosting account and then move to a more powerful one, if you consider it compulsory to do so. This is quite suitable, because you do not have to transmit websites between hosting servers and there is no possibility of facing service outages due to all the complications that may arise.
