How Does Shared Website Hosting Operate?

If you are seeking an inexpensive website hosting service, the service for you is called web hosting.

What Is Web Hosting?

Over the years, the need for website hosting services has grown greatly, but customers also like cheap prices. The service web hosting distributors have invented is called web hosting. These web hosting distributors host lots of customers on the very same web server, making sure that they do not intervene with each other by placing limits on the server resources each hosting account is allowed to use. This allows for both stable performance and lower operational costs in comparison to a dedicated hosting, which is used by just one person, and permits hosting suppliers to offer affordable prices to their customers.

What can you do with a web hosting account?

The web hosting accounts traditionally include diverse web site, mail and database management features - a hosting Control Panel, a File Manager tool, a File Transfer Protocol client, a phpMyAdmin interface, and typically webmail - to check your email mailbox accounts. At Iwindows, we provide all these features at moderate prices. We have both monthly and annual invoicing options and also offer a cheap domain name registration with each of our shared hosting plans. You can also administer everything from one and the same location with us - our easy-to-use hosting Control Panel includes all the tools you need to administer your web site files, DNS resource records, register and renew more domains, create mail accounts and e-mail aliases, activate e-mail forwarding and auto-configure your email client software. How many domain names you can host in your hosting account depends on the web hosting package you have, but web traffic and web hosting server hard disk space are unlimited - you are only limited in terms of the CPU allowance and the amount of hosted domains.

Backup

Apart from all the common tools, it is very important when the website hosting provider guarantees that your hosting data is secure. This is why the availability of scheduled backups is compulsory and you should check in advance if the company of your choosing is offering such. We offer daily backups and retains backups for the last week. The backup consists of your web files and databases and to have it recovered, you have to speak with our tech support staff. They get back to you in less than one hour, so if you erased those files fortuitously - do not lose your nerve, hope still exists!
