Shared Web Hosting -Sharing Virtual Web Space

Shared web hosting is the concept of sharing virtual web space on a web server where you site is hosted. Information and data of several clients is hosted on web server which is owned by a hosting company. Such outsourcing of web space is quite suitable for small business owners that own a business website or a portal. You can choose the amount of space you want on the server and add your information appropriately.

Shared web hosting is quite similar to owning an office in a multi-storey commercial complex. You are the owner of the space but the complete building is owned by someone else. This gives you the peace of mind to afford and maintain a big commercial complex, yet it offers you a visibility in the business community. When you host your website on a shared server space, you do not need to maintain the server or take back ups of the data. Others will keep a watch on it. All you need to do is to have the web pages designed appropriately and host them on the server.

Characteristics and advantages of shared web hosting:

• The hosting company is responsible for maintaining the server and providing support services for the website.
• It is quite economic. The customer receives an array of quality services at the minimal charges. It is most suitable for business groups or institutions with lesser financial capabilities.
• The website can be immediately made active after hosting it on the server. The web hosting company offers web mail services, bandwidth capacity, free software, etc. along with storage space.
• Customers are offered 24/7 technical support for all the hosting needs. Any hardware failures etc are taken care of by the hosting company. Customers do not need to invest in a technical staff for the server maintenance.
• Free services such as site counter, traffic analysis, search engines submission, website builder, and FTP access, further facilitate the customer in managing and marketing the websites.
