How Shared Website Hosting Works

If you are seeking a cut-price hosting solution, the solution for you is called hosting.

What Is Hosting?

Over the years, the demand for web hosting solutions has increased greatly, but users also like cheap prices. The solution hosting vendors have come up with is called hosting. These hosting companies host a lot of clients on the same hosting server, ensuring that they do not interfere with each other by setting limits on the server resources each account is permitted to make use of. This allows for both agreeable performance and lower operating costs in comparison with a dedicated server, which is used by just one single individual, and permits web hosting vendors to offer modest prices to their customers.

What can you do with a hosting account?

The hosting accounts traditionally offer various web site, email and database administration tools - a web hosting CP, a File Manager tool, a File Transfer Protocol client, a phpMyAdmin interface, and usually webmail - to check your email box accounts. At EXTEC, we provide all these tools at affordable prices. We offer both monthly and annual billing options and also offer a cheap domain registration with each of our shared web hosting plans. You can also manage everything from one and the same location with us - our user-friendly web hosting CP offers all the tools you need to handle your web files, DNS resource records, register and renew more domains, set up e-mailbox accounts and email aliases, enable e-mail forwarding and automatically configure your e-mail software client. How many domains you can accommodate in your shared account depends on the web hosting plan you have, but traffic and hosting server disk drive storage space are unlimited - you are solely limited when it comes to the CPU utilization and the number of hosted domains.

Backup

Beside all the standard features, it is very essential when the web hosting supplier makes certain that your content is defended. This is the reason why the availability of periodic backups is compulsory and you should establish in advance if the web hosting services provider of your choosing is offering such. We perform daily backups and maintains backups for the past seven days. The backup consists of your web files and databases and to have it restored, you have to touch base with our tech support team. They get back to you in less than an hour, so if you deleted those web files haphazardly - do not panic, hope dies hard!
