A survey of Exclusive Hosting

We, at quartzsite.biz, have picked 'Exclusive Hosting' to be our present domain name and hosting distributor. Hence we deem that this short assessment of 'Exclusive Hosting' is probably going to be very helpful for other people from all around the World who are looking for domain name and web hosting solutions. We say individuals from all over the Globe, because the simple fact is that 'Exclusive Hosting' presently provides domain and hosting services in several server farm facility locations: in North America (Chicago, IL), in the United Kingdom (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, embracing almost the whole planet. At least from the point of view of the Internet. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'Exclusive Hosting' in a nutshell:

Shared Web Space Hosting Plans

The first thing we, at quartzsite.biz, have perceived is the inexpensive prices of the shared web site hosting packages offered by 'Exclusive Hosting'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared hosting. The good thing here is that the website hosting plans delivered by 'Exclusive Hosting' are powered by a custom developed, innovative cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, web page hosting Control Panel, data storage, DNS, stats, etc., runs on a different stack of web servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting supplier in the World will have great problems with, since cPanel is a one-server based site hosting environment (each web hosting service, like email, databases, web space hosting Control Panel, disk storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being dealt with by one and the same hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel web site hosting vendors are not able to add new functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file platform (they have to make their own file platform), which is the foundation of any cloud web hosting service. Let's get back to the shared web space hosting accounts, which are powered by an actual clustered web space hosting solution. With a shared hosting package, each client pays just for his/her account, thus retaining the web site hosting price very low (since numerous users are hosted on one and the same hosting server). In a few words, a shared hosting account, which is hosted on a cloud web site hosting solution, permits you to pay just for the resources that you actually require, evading a scenario where you pay for a feature-rich hosting plan that you cannot really use, or for a basic webspace hosting package that cannot handle your web page. The possibility to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only 2 clicks of the mouse grants you the flexibility to kick off with a low-end plan and upgrade as your website grows. Hence, you save capital that you can expend on advertising the web page while it is still new. Each hosting package offered by 'Exclusive Hosting' offers an online web site building tool and more than 40 popular script software applications like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you 100s of dollars for web design services. 'Exclusive Hosting' delivers shared web hosting accounts in a number of different regions across the World. There is one datacenter in Chicago covering the US and Canada; 2 European data center facilities - in England and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific region. Thus, approximately the entire Globe is encompassed to provide you and your web page's visitors with a stable and fast web page hosting solution at a preferred location. All in all, the shared hosting packages offered 'Exclusive Hosting' are quite well equipped and are available at an affordable price (starting from $3.25 for the Exclusive plan).

Semi-dedicated Web Servers

To users with little or no experience, a private virtual web server may appear troublesome to administer. That's probably why 'Exclusive Hosting' also hosts semi-dedicated servers in its principal American data center facility in Chicago. Managing these packages is similar to managing a standard shared website hosting plan through a webspace hosting Control Panel tool. They have all the features of a shared web hosting package such as a free-of-cost site building tool and a web application installer, but the amount of system resources provided by a semi-dedicated server account is many times bigger than that of a shared web hosting plan. For example, the central processing unit power that can be used is approximately 5 times as much as compared with the shared site hosting packages. When compared to a shared site hosting account, the quota of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is big: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted domain quota is a norm too. The semi-dedicated server web hosting plans do not ship with complete root-level access (we, at quartzsite.biz, think that this is a minor minus), but the plus is that they are administered through the same hosting Control Panel tool as the shared web page hosting accounts. This implies that a known graphical user interface is offered to all clients who do not have enough self-condifence to handle a VPS server, yet demand more power and resources than a virtual server can furnish them with. This is so because the semi-dedicated servers share the resources of the very same powerful high-class hosting servers as the ones which host the virtual web server hosting plans, however, the number of the semi-dedicated web servers is very low (somewhere between twenty to thirty per server), while the private virtual web hosting servers can reach a much greater number (80 to one hundred and twenty per server). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers provided by 'Exclusive Hosting' can be branded as being quite inexpensive (as far as cost is concerned), starting from $22.00 for the Rocket plan.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

In quartzsite.biz's opinion, huge sites such as social networks, community and corporate portals or popular web stores with 1000s of customers demand a much more powerful web space hosting platform. It appears that the chaps from 'Exclusive Hosting' have drawn the same conclusion as well. To satisfy its clients' expectations, 'Exclusive Hosting' supplies a selection of dedicated hosting servers that can cope with millions of daily visits. That estimation rests on the hardware configurations the servers have: multi-core processors, up to four gigabytes of RAM, 2000 gigabytes of web space and Gigabit network interface cards will beyond doubt ensure the fast and stable work of any type of web site. According to 'Exclusive Hosting', the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more system resource-demanding websites. We, from quartzsite.biz, believe that all dedicated server specifications provided by 'Exclusive Hosting' are also appropriate for kickstarting a hosting reseller business as each server arrives with free invoice transaction software platform and a bonus domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated hosting servers offered by 'Exclusive Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at quartzsite.biz, deem this a small weakness, which can be amended by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you need help, the Managed Services upgrade offers an assortment of extra services such as a routine backup, software installation, dedicated server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. An assortment of hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are available with each of the dedicated web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (quartzsite.biz's) prognosis is that the superb point-and-click File Manager included in the Hepsia CP will possibly make the utilization of any File Transfer Protocol software program pointless. Our (quartzsite.biz's) inference is that the dedicated servers furnished by 'Exclusive Hosting' don't seem to be very cheap (still the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain allowance will doubtlessly make you smile), commencing from $40.00 for the A1 HDD plan.
