A review of 100WebSpace

We, at mykom.ch, have chosen '100WebSpace' to be our present domain and hosting supplier. Therefore we suppose that this brief evaluation of '100WebSpace' is probably going to be quite useful for other folks from all over the World who are searching for domain name and web hosting services. We say people from all around the World, since the mere truth is that '100WebSpace' currently offers domain and hosting services in numerous datacenter facility sites: in America (Chicago, IL), in the UK (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, covering approximately the whole Earth. At least from the point of view of the World Wide Web. So, here is what you could expect from '100WebSpace' in short:

Shared Web Space Hosting Packages

The first thing we, at mykom.ch, have noted is the reasonable prices of the shared web site hosting solutions furnished 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 web site hosting plans delivered by '100WebSpace' are driven by an in-house created, leading edge cloud web hosting solution (each web hosting service, such as email, databases, web hosting Control Panel, web space, DNS, stats, etc., is being served by an individual set of hosting servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance ANY cPanel web hosting company on the Earth will have considerable troubles with, since cPanel is a single server based web space hosting environment (each web hosting service, like mail, databases, web site hosting Control Panel, disk storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being served by one and the same hosting server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel-based web hosting distributors are unable to include extra functionality and handle it the way they want it) and there is no open source file platform (they have to make their own file platform), which is at the heart of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared web site hosting plans, which are driven by a genuine cloud web page hosting platform. With a shared web space hosting package, each customer pays just for his/her account, thus retaining the price really low (since plenty of users share the same server). In a few words, a shared hosting plan, which runs on a clustered web site hosting platform, permits you to pay only for the resources that you actually require, refraining from a situation where you pay for a powerful hosting plan that you cannot truly use, or for a basic web site hosting package that cannot host your website. The option to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only two clicks of the mouse grants you the flexibility to commence with a tiny plan and upgrade as your online presence expands. Hence, you save money that you can expend on advertising the web page while it is still new. Every web space hosting package offered by '100WebSpace' arrives with an online website building tool and more than forty popular script software applications such as WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you 100s of dollars for website design services. '100WebSpace' provides shared web site hosting packages in several different countries across the World. There is one server farm facility in Chicago encompassing the USA and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in Great Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia-Pacific. That way, practically the whole Globe is covered to provide you and your web site's visitors with a stable and dependable website hosting solution at a nearby location. On the whole, the shared hosting solutions furnished '100WebSpace' are quite well stocked and come at a cut-rate price (starting from $0.00 for the FREE Hosting package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To clients with little or no experience, a private virtual web hosting server may appear difficult to manage. That's probably why '100WebSpace' also hosts semi-dedicated web hosting servers in its principal United States data center facility in Chicago. Managing these accounts is comparable to managing a normal shared hosting plan through a webspace hosting CP tool. They have all the features of a shared hosting account such as a fee-free web site building tool and a web application installation tool, but the system resource quota offered by a semi-dedicated hosting plan is many times larger than that of a shared web page hosting plan. For instance, the CPU power that can be utilized is about 5 times as much as compared with the shared web space hosting packages. When compared to a shared web hosting package, the number of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is immense: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted domain name quota is a norm too. The semi-dedicated web hosting server packages do not include root-level access (we, at mykom.ch, regard this as a tiny defect), but the good point is that they are managed via the very same webspace hosting Control Panel user interface as the shared hosting packages. This signifies that a well-known graphical environment is offered to all customers who do not feel self-confident enough to handle a virtual private web server, yet require more power and features than a virtual private web server can confer to them. This is like that due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web servers share the system resources of the same powerful high-class web hosting servers as the ones which accommodate the virtual private hosting server accounts, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated web servers is quite small (somewhere between twenty to thirty per physical server), while the virtual private web hosting servers can reach a much greater number (80 to a hundred and twenty per physical server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers supplied by '100WebSpace' can be labeled as being quite cheap (as far as cost is concerned), starting from $55.00 for the Standard package.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

In mykom.ch's opinion, huge web pages such as social networks, community and business web portals or popular online storefronts with thousands of clients need a much more powerful website hosting platform. It seems that the blokes from '100WebSpace' have reached the same conclusion as well. To answer its clients' needs, '100WebSpace' delivers a number of dedicated servers that can handle millions of daily hits. That assessment stands on the hardware configurations the web servers come with: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of disk storage and Gigabit network interface cards will undoubtedly guarantee the fast and stable work of any kind of website. According to '100WebSpace', the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more system resource-demanding sites. We, from mykom.ch, consider that all dedicated server specifications offered by '100WebSpace' are also suitable for commencing a hosting reseller business as each web server arrives with free-of-cost invoicing software platform and a free domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated web hosting servers delivered by '100WebSpace' are all unmanaged. We, at mykom.ch, count this as a minor defect, which can be corrected by paying a monthly tax of $32.00 USD. So, if you require support, the Managed Services upgrade provides an array of supplementary services such as a routine backup, software installation, dedicated hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting procedures. A bouquet of web space hosting CP (CP) user interfaces are available with each of the dedicated web servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (mykom.ch's) prediction is that the magnificent drag-and-drop File Manager added in the Hepsia web hosting CP will perhaps render the utilization of any FTP software useless. Our (mykom.ch's) inference is that the dedicated servers delivered by '100WebSpace' don't seem to be very affordably priced (still the Hepsia site hosting CP and the unlimited hosted domain name allowance will undoubtedly make you smile), beginning from $145.00 for the Optimus plan.
