A review of 100WebSpace

We, at mydj.events, have selected '100WebSpace' to be our present domain and web hosting provider. This is why we deem that this brief assessment of '100WebSpace' is probably going to be very helpful for other folks from all over the Globe who need domain name and web hosting services. We say folks from all over the World, because the mere truth is that '100WebSpace' presently provides domain and hosting services in multiple data center sites: in North America (Chicago, IL), in England (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, embracing practically the whole Earth. At least from the point of view of the Internet. So, here is what you could expect from '100WebSpace' in a nutshell:

Shared Site Hosting Services

The first detail we, at mydj.events, have spotted is the budget prices of the shared hosting services delivered by '100WebSpace'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the hosting plans supplied by '100WebSpace' are driven by a custom built, leading edge cloud web hosting platform (each hosting service, such as email, databases, webspace hosting CP, disk space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being run on an autonomous bunch of hosting servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting company in the World will have enormous problems with, because cPanel is a one-server based web page hosting environment (each web hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, Control Panel, disk space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being dealt with by one single server), cPanel is not open source (that is why the cPanel-based web hosting companies are not able to include additional functionality and manipulate it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they have to create 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 cloud hosting solution. With a shared web space hosting package, each customer pays just for his/her account, thus maintaining the web hosting price really low (since plenty of customers use one and the same web server). To cut a long story short, a shared hosting plan, which is hosted on a cloud web site hosting solution, permits you to pay solely for the reserves that you actually demand, averting a situation where you pay for a high-end web hosting package that you cannot really utilize, or for a tiny web site hosting package that cannot handle your web page. The ability to upgrade your account from one plan to another with just 2 mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to begin with a basic plan and upgrade as your site expands. In this way, you save capital that you can spend on promoting the web site while it is still new. Every web site hosting plan supplied by '100WebSpace' arrives with an online web site building tool and more than 40 popular script software platforms such as WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you 100s of dollars for site design solutions. '100WebSpace' offers shared site hosting accounts in several different geographical regions across the World. There is one data center facility in Chicago encompassing the United States and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in Great Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. Hence, virtually the entire planet is covered to supply you and your web site's visitors with a stable and fast web site hosting service at a desired location. On the whole, the shared hosting accounts supplied '100WebSpace' are really well stocked and are available at an attractive price (starting from $0.00 for the FREE Hosting package).

Semi-dedicated Servers

To users with little or no experience, a virtual web hosting server may seem complicated to handle. That's probably why '100WebSpace' also stores semi-dedicated servers in its main United States server farm in Chicago. Administering these packages is comparable to administering a conventional shared web hosting package through a web hosting Control Panel user interface. They have all the specs of a shared web site hosting account such as a free-of-charge site building tool and a PHP script installer, but the amount of system resources offered by a semi-dedicated web hosting account is many times larger than that of a shared hosting account. For instance, the CPU power that can be used is about FIVE times as much as compared to the shared web hosting plans. When matched against a shared plan, the quota of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is vast: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted TLD quota is a trend too. The semi-dedicated server hosting packages do not include full root access (we, at mydj.events, consider this a little downside), but the advantage is that they are administered via the very same webspace hosting Control Panel user interface as the shared hosting accounts. This signifies that a familiar graphical interface is offered to all clients who are not confident enough to manage a VPS web server, yet demand more power and resources than a VPS web hosting server can offer. This is so owing to the fact that the semi-dedicated hosting servers share the system resources of the same powerful leading edge web hosting servers as the ones which host the virtual private hosting server accounts, however, the number of the semi-dedicated hosting servers is quite low (somewhere between 20 to 30 per physical server), while the virtual web servers can reach a much higher number (80 to a hundred and twenty per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers delivered by '100WebSpace' can be categorized as being very cheap (as far as price is concerned), starting from $55.00 for the Standard package.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

In mydj.events's opinion, big web pages such as social networks, community and corporate portals or famous web storefronts with 1000s of clients request a much more powerful webspace hosting environment. It appears that the chaps from '100WebSpace' have arrived at the same conclusion too. To fulfil its users' demands, '100WebSpace' offers a number of dedicated web hosting servers that can cope with millions of daily visits. That estimation rests on the hardware configurations the web hosting servers are offering: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand GB of storage space and Gigabit network interface cards will doubtlessly ensure the quick and steady work of any type of web site. In '100WebSpace's opinion, the original hardware configurations can be upgraded for more resource-requiring web sites. We, from mydj.events, deem that all dedicated server solutions supplied by '100WebSpace' are also appropriate for setting up a hosting reseller business as every dedicated web hosting server offers free-of-cost invoicing transaction software platform and a free-of-charge domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated servers furnished by '100WebSpace' are all unmanaged. We, at mydj.events, deem this a minor downside, which can be corrected by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you need help, the Managed Services upgrade provides various additional services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated web server monitoring and troubleshooting procedures. A number of web page hosting CP (CP) user interfaces are offered with each of the dedicated servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (mydj.events's) prognosis is that the great drag and drop File Manager offered by the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel will perhaps render the recourse to any File Transfer Protocol software useless. Our (mydj.events's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers delivered by '100WebSpace' don't appear to be very low priced (still the Hepsia website hosting CP and the unmetered hosted domain name allowance will beyond doubt make you smile), beginning from $145.00 for the Optimus package.
