Frequently Asked Questions

A domain name, like www.coolexample.com, is a lot like a street address for a house or business. Let's use the White House as an example. The street address, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, is an exact location — like an IP address. You might not know the exact street address, but when you visit Washington, D.C., you can tell your cabbie that you want to visit the White House and still get there. This is how a domain name is used: It's an easy way to reach the exact location of a website without having to remember its numeric address.

A domain name consists of, at least, a top-level and a second-level domain. A top-level domain (TLD) is the part of the domain name located to the right of the dot ("."). The most common TLDs are .com, .net, and .org.

Many domains, also called extensions, can be registered by anyone, like .com, .net, and .org. A second-level domain (SLD) is the portion of the domain name that is located immediately to the left of the dot and domain name extension. For example, the SLD in coolexample.com is coolexample.

Advanced Domain Name Description: A domain name represents a physical point on the Internet — an IP address. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) governs coordination of the links between IP addresses and domain names across the Internet. With this standardized coordination, you can find websites on the Internet by entering domain names instead of IP addresses into your Web browser.

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique identifying string of numbers, like 216.27.61.137, given to every individual computer, server, and network on the Internet. Like a license plate is used to help identify vehicles, an IP address is used to identify and locate information online. Additionally, they allow for communication over the internet between devices and networks connected to the internet.

The www before your domain name is a subdomain, not part of the domain name itself. Therefore, if you set up your www CNAME record to point to your primary A record, your site will resolve both at www.coolexample.com and coolexample.com.

If you can reach your website by typing in your domain without the www but cannot reach it when you type the www, then your CNAME might be set up incorrectly. Follow the instructions below to ensure your domain name's settings are correct.

When visitors enter your domain name into a Web browser, the browser request uses your domain name to find the domain name's associated IP address and, therefore, the website. People use domain names instead of IP addresses because it is easier to remember a name rather than a series of numbers.

Your domain name and its associated IP address are stored in a common database along with every other domain and associated IP address that are accessible via the Internet.

A URL, or Uniform Resource Locator, is the address of an Internet website or webpage. Think of a URL as a street address for the location of information on the Internet. For instance, a complete URL like https://coolexample.com/music, points you to the music page of the coolexample.com website.

Take a look at the anatomy of this URL to better understand how they direct online users to specific information: https://coolexample.com/funky/music.html

http:// = protocol
coolexample = domain name
.com =TLD
/funky/music.html = path
/funky/ = directory
/music.html = file name

Nameservers are the Internet's equivalent to phone books. A nameserver maintains a directory of domain names that match certain IP addresses (computers). The information from all the nameservers across the Internet is gathered in a central registry.

Nameservers make it possible for visitors to access your website using a familiar domain name, instead of having to remember a series of numbers.

Registering a domain name does not automatically activate a website that displays when visitors enter your domain name into a Web browser. The domain name must have a hosted website that includes a numeric address, called an IP address, for visitors to access the website using your domain name.

Besides setting up a website, there are a number of things you can do with your domain name once you register it.

Sell it — Domain names can be a great investment. If you have registered a domain name that you are not using, maybe someone else can. You can set up a For Sale parked page to let visitors know that it's available — and don't forget to include your contact information. See Auctions FAQ for more information.

Protect your brand online — The more domain names you register, the better. Prevent others from registering a similar domain name to yours. These similar domain names can steal your customers or confuse them. What can you do with all these domain names? Forward them to your main domain name's website. See Manually Forwarding or Masking Your Domain Name for more information.

Hold on to it — Maybe you haven't decided what to do with your new domain name. Don't worry — there's no rush. You can leave it parked with us for the length of your registration. You can also monetize it by setting it up in a CashParking® account. See CashParking FAQ for more information.

If you're thinking about registering more than one domain name, you've got the right idea. Registering and using multiple domains names is great for building your business, protecting your brand name, and creating a dynamic online identity.

When you register multiple domain names, you can:

Keep your competition from registering a similar domain name drawing customers to them instead of you.
Promote the different products and services you offer.
Drive more traffic to your website.
Enjoy more opportunities to market to — and be listed in — search engines.
Create distinct advertising strategies reaching different target markets.
Provide customers more ways to find you when searching the Internet.
Capture common misspellings of your domain name, instead of sending visitors to an error page.
Protect your brand and online identity.

Usually, a domain name is not available for re-registration as soon as it expires. Most registrars allow a grace period that can be as short as one or two weeks or as long as a year for registrants to renew expired domain names. The actual grace period can be different for each individual registrar and domain name extension. That is, the grace period for a .com domain name might be different from the grace period for a .us domain name, even at the same registrar.

After the registrar's grace period, most domain names have a redemption period. This period can last from two weeks to 30 days, and, during this time, the current registrant can renew the domain name by paying a redemption fee along with the domain name's renewal fee.

If the current registrant does not renew or redeem the domain name, it might be auctioned. When a domain name is released to a public auction, you can participate and possibly capture the domain name by placing a bid on it.

If the domain name is not renewed, redeemed, or purchased through an auction, it is returned to its registry. The registry determines when the domain name is released again for registration. Once it's released, you can register the domain name through us.

You should always keep backups of your website — there's no other way to prepare for the unexpected. Indiaaccess gives you two options for backups:

Automatic Backup:

Automatic daily backups for your websites and databases

Automatic integration with your Indiaaccess hosting (minimal-to-no setup required)

Restoring your entire hosting account or individual files

Backups on demand

Database backups

Manual backups in cPanel

From the cPanel home page, in the Files area, click Backups.

In the Download a Home Directory Backup area, click Home Directory.

If you have any databases you should also download a backup of them by clicking the database's name in the Download a MySQL Database Backup area.

You can upload your website files directly through cPanel. This will publish your website live on the internet.

Preparing your files
Uploading more than one file? You can save yourself a lot of time by creating a ZIP file on your computer with all of your website files. This is because the file manager in cPanel can only upload one file at a time.

Upload your files

In your cPanel dashboard, under Files, click File Manager.

If an option window displays, select the directory you want to open, and then click Go

Note:cPanel uses public_html as the root directory of your primary domain name's website. If you want to upload your website to the internet, this is where you should start. If you want to upload a website for a secondary or add-on domain, you should first verify your website's root directory.

Navigate to the directory where you want to upload the file.

Click Choose File, locate the file on your local machine, and then click OK.

After you upload the file you want, click Back to...

Repeat these steps for any other files you want to upload.

Next Steps

Now that your website is uploaded, you can visit your website by navigating to your domain in your web browser.

If you used this guide to upload a ZIP file, you can unzip that file with the file manager.

You can create MySQL databases on your hosting account for your websites to use.

To Set Up a Database for Your Website

Log in to your cPanel account.

In the Databases section, click MySQL Database Wizard.

In the New Database field, enter a name for your database, and then click Next Step.

Note: Your database name must be unique in our system. If you get an error message stating 'The database example_name already exists,' then click Go Back, and choose a new database name.

Complete the Username, Password, and Password (Again) fields, and then click Create User.

Select the privileges to grant the user, and then click Next Step.

If you backed up or exported a database to a SQL file, you can import it into one of your hosting account's MySQL databases through phpMyAdmin.

Note: The phpMyAdmin interface only lets you import 8MB of data at one time. If you need to import more than 8MB, we recommend breaking up the file into 8MB pieces.

To Import SQL Files into MySQL Databases Using phpMyAdmin

Access your database via PHPMyAdmin (Web & Classic / cPanel / Plesk / Managed WordPress).

(cPanel only) On the left, click the database you want to use.

Go to the Import files tab.

Click Browse, locate the SQL file on your computer, click Open, and then click Go.

This runs the SQL file and updates the database as specified in your SQL file. It might take several minutes to restore the database.

Note: If you receive an error message stating "Script timeout passed, if you want to finish import, please resubmit same file and import will resume" you can immediately select the same file to import and continue the restore where it left off.

After the database restores, make sure your connection strings are up to date.

The root directory of your website is the content that loads when visitors access your domain name in a Web browser. The most obvious consequence of this is that you need to put your "index file" in your website's root directory for visitors to see your site at all.

Website-related applications might also need to know your website's root directory.

Your website's root directory depends on whether the domain name is your primary domain name or another type.

Your primary domain name's root directory is /public_html.

Secondary and subdomain names' root directories were specified when they were set up. You can find them listed in cPanel.

To Find Secondary (Addon) and Subdomains' Root Directories

Log in to your cPanel account.

In the Domains section, click either Subdomains or Addon Domains, depending on the type of domain you're using.

The root directory displays in the Document Root field.

DO NOT select the Suspend domain until backup task is completed. Should the backup fail, your domain would remain suspended and inaccessible to your website viewers.

Once the backup is completed you can download it from the main backup screen by clicking on the Green Circle/Arrow icon on the right side of the backup listing.

Upload your website files on Plesk 12.5 Panel.

Preparing your files
Uploading more than one file? You can save yourself a lot of time by creating a ZIP file on your computer with all of your website files. This is because the file manager in cPanel can only upload one file at a time.

You can upload files using one of the 2 below methods.

1. Using File Manager in Parallels Plesk Hosting Account.

Login to your Plesk Panel.

You can now see lot of icons out of them click on “File Manager” icon to open the “httpdocs” folder or Find “httpdocs” folder below the Domain Name.this is by default which is the public folder on plesk based servers.



In the File Manager, click on the “Upload Files” option in the toolbar on top. Browse and select your website file you want to upload. For faster upload or restore of your website, we recommend that you create a compressed file in “.zip” folder of your website files and folders on your local computer and then Browse & Select to upload. This will upload your .zip file.



Once website .zip file is uploaded and appears in the list, click on the checkbox next to it and Then find “Extract Files” and click on it. This will unzip all your website files and folders to the httpdocs folder.



Next Steps

Now that your website is uploaded, you can visit your website by navigating to your domain in your web browser.

If you used this guide to upload a ZIP file, you can unzip that file with the file manager.

You can create MySQL databases on your hosting account for your websites to use.

In Parallels Plesk Panel, you create databases and then either create new users for it, or grant existing users access.

To Set Up a Database for Your Website

Earlier versions of Plesk required the use of database management tools to dump databases, but Plesk 12.5 allows you to back up (by exporting a database dump as an SQL file) and restore them (by importing a database dump as an SQL file) without having to leave the control panel.

To save a copy of a database:

Go to Websites & Domains > Databases > Export Dump in the database tools pane.

To save a dump in a certain directory on the Plesk server, select the directory. The home directory of the selected subscription is used by default.

To save the dump on your local computer as well as on the server, select Automatically download dump after creation.

To deploy your copy of a database in Plesk:

Go to Websites & Domains > Databases > Import Dump in the database tools pane.

To choose a dump from your local computer, select Upload and click Browse. Then select a ZIP archive with the dump file.

To choose a dump from a directory on the server, select Import and select a file of the dump.

To deploy the dump into a newly created database, select Recreate the database. The old database will be deleted and a new one, with the same name, created.

Note: Alternatively, you can back up a database as part of a subscription during the subscription backup and then restore it separately. See the Backing Up and Recovering Websites section for details.

In Parallels Plesk Panel, you create databases and then either create new users for it, or grant existing users access.

Login to your Plesk account. On the homepage, click on the “Databases” icon on the middle section of your panel or find on right hand side from the list.



Then click on the “Add a Database” option on the page to get a form. Fill in the Database Name you desire and also create a Database Username and Password. Make sure you select MS SQL in Database Type.

Web hosting is a service that allows organizations and individuals to post a website or web page onto the Internet. A web hosting service provider, is a business that provides the technologies and services needed for the website or webpage to be viewed on the Internet. Websites are hosted or stored, on computers called servers. When Internet users want to view your website, all they need to do is type your website address or domain into their browser. Their computer will then connect to your server and your webpages will be delivered to them through the browser. Most hosting companies require that you own your domain in order to host with them. If you do not have a domain, the hosting companies will help you purchase one. The web hosting firms also employ in-house technicians to make sure their clients' websites are up and running 24/7. Plus, when website owners are in need of help or troubleshooting (e.g. script debugging, email not able to send/receive, domain name renewal, and more), the web host's in-house support helps them for smooth functioning of websites, so they can efficiently focus their time and effort on their businesses.

Email hosting is a service in which a hosting provider rents out email servers to its users. While there are free versions available with many hosting companies, many businesses take advantage of the flexibility and power of professional email services. Professional email hosting takes place when both incoming and outgoing emails are managed by a separate shared or dedicated mail server. As mentioned earlier, most hosting providers require users to have their domain name. With a domain name (e.g. www.yourwebsite.com) and email account features provided by your hosting company, you can create domain email accounts (e.g. yourname@yourwebsite.com). For many email users, paid hosting is wholly unnecessary, but what about when you have important documents like bills, invoices, client contacts or any other pieces of sensitive information stored on your email account. Additionally, can you afford to lose subscribers, customers, etc. by having a clumsy and unprofessional generic email like your.business@gmail.com over your domain such as info@your.business.com, In addition to the professionalism that having your domain in your email provides, it’s advised to consider upgrading to email hosting instead of putting your data in the hands of a free email service like Google or Yahoo. Businesses pay for this service so that if something goes wrong, someone is there to help. There are plenty of email-related scenarios that could cause significant damage to your business: someone steals a password, hacks your email, or you simply forgot your password. You will be able to recover access to email and its associated files, swiftly, if you are paying for a premium service. Maintaining and supporting email yourself will increase the probability of virus infections, as well as hardware and software issues. Such problems could cause email not to function from several hours to days, which is why more businesses are opting for modern email hosting plans.

Web publishing, or "online publishing," is the process of publishing content on the Internet. It includes creating and uploading websites, updating webpages, and posting blogs online. The published content may include text, images, videos, and other types of media. To publish content on the web, you need three things, 1) web development software, 2) an Internet connection, and 3) a web server. The software may be a professional web design program like Dreamweaver or a simple web-based interface like WordPress. The Internet connection serves as the medium for uploading the content to the webserver. Large sites may use a dedicated web host, but many smaller sites often reside on shared servers, which host multiple websites. Additionally, the audience is limitless since content posted on the web can be viewed by anyone in the world with an Internet connection. Also not that, Posting updates on social networking websites like Facebook and Twitter is generally not considered web publishing. Instead, web publishing generally refers to uploading content to unique websites.

Small Business Email Hosting
There are many different types of email hosting solutions, each serving a different purpose, for small businesses to corporates. The small business often uses a shared hosting service but you can’t use it for sending/receiving bulk emails due to limitations on the email server. Most website hosting plans come with built-in email hosting, but the best email hosting providers offer a variety of benefits you might not get from your everyday web host and their standard shared servers. Most digital businesses prefer to use third-party email hosting solutions. These are scalable, easy-to-use email servers that provide excellent support but you will have to pay separately for email hosting service. Therefore, the cost will be more than what you will pay if you get a shared web hosting with email service. These are complex email servers that are robust, and require technical expertise on part of the team operating these servers. These servers are reliable, and you can send, receive, and maintain emails with ease. These types of email services are used by corporates & big companies.

Our Business Email package lets you take advantage of our advanced email technology, giving you the least latency along with the industry's best uptime, scalability and reliability. You can send and receive emails using any desktop-based email client such as Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Mozilla Thunderbird, Eudora, Entourage, Windows Mail, etc. We also have a guide on how you can configure different email clients to send/receive emails. The Business Email product supports the POP and IMAP protocols. Our business mail solutions are very reliable and trusted. We offer advanced & innovative Business email solutions that can be customized according to your industry & business requirement. Our Business email hosting service also comes with multiple built-in Anti SPAM & Antivirus services with regular security patches by experts. By using our Business email solutions, you can guarantee great success for your business.

Unlimited Email Hosting
We provide Web hosting with unlimited emails so that you can create as many email addresses as you need. This can be great for businesses with a large number of employees or entrepreneurs managing several sites at once. While email hosting is technically separate from web hosting, both count towards used disc space on your account. Unlimited email accounts generally come on plans with unlimited domains and storage as well but not always. When a hosting plan mentions emails as a specification, it is referring to the number of email accounts that can be created, not the number of emails you can send or store. Several hosts limited the amount of emails you can send within an hour. This is done to prevent their servers from becoming blacklisted either through regular use or a bot. If you’re a small business, no need to worry as this cap is usually in the hundreds. Small businesses usually do not need access to unlimited email accounts unless they require their customers to create emails as well. Email hosting usually has a higher cap on emails than domain-hosting, frequently being unlimited.

Web hosting is a service in which individuals and organizations can keep their information in the form of a web page onto the internet. Web Hosting is a business that provides the services and technologies needed for the website or web portal to be accessed on the internet. The computers on which websites are hosted or stored are highly and specially configured and called servers. When people visit the internet and want to view any website, they need to type a website name or domain name into their browser. Their computer will then connect to the server and browsed website pages will be delivered to them through the browser.

It is always a big headache where to host my website because too many web hosting companies are providing hosting services at a very low cost. Sometimes we have not enquired about all the necessary things which need to know before hosting a website. If your business depends on the web, you should think of acquiring solid web hosting as investing in real estate on the Internet, namely, purchasing a settlement and maintenance location for one’s blog or retail website. In the role of a silent backdoor engine in charge of all performance matters, web hosting is not only a critical investment but one you simply can’t take for granted.

As your online business grows, your Web hosting needs will increase and become more complex. At the startup or beginning phase, we can host a website with free or inexpensive hosting plans. If your website is starting to feel sluggish as it continues to grow and you get more website traffic, you may need to start looking at beefing up your Web server.

It’s important to understand how types of hosting can be categorized. One way of categorizing hosting is based on how the servers are set up and the amount of access you have to those servers. Thus, the result is the following types of hosting:

Free Web Hosting

Shared Hosting

VPS Hosting

Dedicated Hosting

Cloud Hosting

Colocation Hosting

Another way to categorize types of hosting is according to the level of management the hosting company provides. Like any computer, a server needs to be maintained and upgraded. Though most hosts offer managed to host, you can find hosting companies that offer unmanaged packages. This means you’ll be doing all the maintenance and upgrading yourself, but you’ll have more flexibility. Of course, you can find packages that offer different management services, so it’s not an either/or situation.

Free Web Hosting
There’s no such thing as a free ride, and though you think you are getting free hosting with these services, this is not the case. With a free web hosting service, you are not technically creating your website, but creating one or more pages on someone else’s website. For example, WordPress allows you to create a free site or blog on their wordpress.com website. However, you’ll find that your website is a subdomain of their domain. In other words, instead of www.yourwebsite.com, the URL will be www.yourwebsite.wordpress.com. They do give you the option to drop the WordPress bit, but you have to pay for the privilege. In other words, it’s free only as long as you don’t mind having WordPress in your URL, or ads splashed across the page.

When to Use Free Web Hosting
If you’re only interested in hosting just because you want to start your blog to express your thoughts, then free web hosting is probably more than enough for your needs. There are quite a few great options available, and they make things as easy as possible. They offer all the tools you need to get your site up and running quickly, including free templates, community support, and some level of customization (not too much though).

Shared Hosting
Shared hosting is the cheapest option you can find where you get your domain. It’s generally best suited for small websites without much traffic. To understand why you need to understand how this type of hosting works.

When you sign up for a shared hosting plan, your website will be sharing space on a server with other websites. To make things more efficient and so they can offer cheap hosting options, hosting companies put multiple users on the same server. Some servers can have over 1,000 users. When you take into account that every user can have multiple sites, depending on the plan they signed up for, you’ll quickly realize that one server can have as many as 5,000 sites. A server is like a computer, but more powerful. Even so, it still has limited resources, such as RAM, CPU speed, and hard drive space. And in a shared hosting environment, those 5,000 sites are using the same limited resources.

Then there’s the traffic. For every visit, the server has to “work” to send all the data being requested by each visitor to the site. The amount of data varies based on how the site is set up, and whether that person is a first-time visitor or not. However, if you take an average of even just three visitors per day, that’s 15,000 requests, which then have to be multiplied by the number of files being downloaded. Yes, those available resources can get eaten up pretty quickly. There are also other issues to consider.

For example, one site might get massive amounts of visitors, which means it will end up hogging a large portion of the server’s resources, thereby slowing your site down. Or one site might have problematic code, which could lead to it using up 60% to 70% of the server’s RAM, leaving the other 4,999 sites to work with only 30% to 40% of the server’s resources.

So, you might find your site is running at a snail’s pace. Worse is that you won’t even be able to tell what the problem is because you don’t have access to the server to check what’s going on. Now, in all fairness, most hosting companies try to keep things running smoothly by identifying problematic sites, or those with high traffic, and either working with the owner to fix the issue or temporarily disabling the site. Unfortunately, though, these options rarely work over the long-term, and though it’s not the fault of the company, it still won’t help your website load properly and at a decent speed.

When to Use Shared Hosting
While shared hosting does have problems, that doesn’t mean it isn’t a good option. If you want a website to host a personal diary, or are a business just starting, then shared hosting is a good option until you start getting a constant stream of steady traffic. Likewise, shared hosting is also good if you want to test a website, or as a base for your website while it’s still in development. Of course, shared hosting is also a good option if you’re on a shoestring budget. Not everyone can afford a VPS or a dedicated server, and shared hosting allows businesses to expand their client bases on a global level at an affordable cost.

VPS Hosting
Virtual Private Server hosting is the next step up from shared hosting. It’s quite a popular option for website owners looking for an upgrade from traditional shared hosting because it is quite balanced from all points of view, including cost. A VPS server still requires you to share space with other users on the same physical server, but the way this is achieved is entirely different to traditional shared hosting.

With VPS hosting, what happens is that a guest machine is created for every user. So, if there are 10 users on a server, that server will be split into 10 guest machines, with each machine getting an equivalent amount of RAM, CPU speed and HDD space. If the server has 32GB of RAM and 1TB of hard drive space, for example, each user will get 3.2GB of RAM and 100GB of hard drive space.

The advantage to this is that a user cannot hog more than the amount of resources they’ve been allocated, thereby ensuring the other websites don’t suffer. So, if another user’s website hits their resource limit, their site might go down, but it won’t affect yours in any way.

Virtual private servers are also much more flexible, allowing you to configure your environment. You can’t do the same thing with traditional shared hosting because any changes you’d make to the server would change everyone else’s environment as well. However, with a VPS, you have your virtual machine, meaning that you can configure many more things without affecting anyone else, which is something developers are sure to appreciate. When to Use Traditional VPS Hosting
If you do a little research, you’ll find that some low-end VPS packages are as cheap as shared hosting, as they start at $10/month. However, a decent enough plan will set you back around $25 per month, whereas the average is $50 per month.

As you can imagine, the difference in price is based on additional services but mainly by the amount of resources you are allocated.

If your budget allows you to spend $15 or more per month on hosting, then it’s advisable to go with a VPS-based plan over traditional shared hosting.

Even on the other end of the scale, you might find that a high-end VPS plan will be a better option than a low-end dedicated server. However, we’ll discuss this a little more in the next section.

Dedicated Server Hosting
With a dedicated server hosting plan, any faulty coding or problematic websites are no one’s fault but your own because you are completely alone on the server. So, right off the bat, one benefit of dedicated hosting is that you don’t have to worry about other people’s sites hogging up your resources, just like with a VPS plan.

When you’re on a dedicated plan, quite a few providers are more than happy to let you customize the server to a certain degree. You might be able to choose how much and what type of RAM to equip the server with, as well as other hardware, and you could also decide on which operating system that server will run on. In other words, you’ll be able to make any changes you need, which could come in handy if you plan on running special software on the server.

If you server technology isn’t your thing and the aforementioned flexibility scares the life out of you, you can opt for a managed plan, but you’ll still have to do quite a few things on your own. On the other end of the spectrum, there’s unmanaged dedicated hosting, where you have to do everything yourself, including installing the operating systems and all the tools necessary for the operation of a server, security, and more. While this might seem wonderful to some, for others it can be a pain.

When to Use a Dedicated Server
So, the question is whether dedicated hosting is ever a good idea. To be honest, nowadays, with cloud VPS systems gaining ground, even a massive site wouldn’t need a dedicated server. While a dedicated server can be better than traditional VPS, it still can’t beat out cloud VPS regarding scalability.

A dedicated server is only really necessary if you have extremely specialized hardware requirements, or you need to have a massive amount of control over data privacy. When you’re on a dedicated server, you are separate from everyone else, which isn’t always a good thing but is unbeatable from a security point of view.

Cloud Hosting
Cloud hosting is similar to having a Virtual Private Server, but to understand how it works, we need to know how cloud computing works.

The difference between traditional computing and cloud computing is a bit like the difference between using your laptop on battery and plugging it in. When you’re running your laptop just off the battery, you can use it until the battery runs out of power. If your laptop usage is light, say only browsing a website or two, or using the word processor, then the battery power will last longer. If you’re playing a graphics-heavy, resource-intensive game, the power will run out faster.

Once you plug it in, though, you can use your laptop as much as you like because it’s pulling power from the main grid. So, no matter how heavy your usage is, your laptop will keep on running for as long as you want it to because it’s receiving power from a huge network. Cloud-based computing is similar in the sense that you gain access to a massive network of servers, and can use those resources based on your needs with no interruption to service. In other words, with cloud hosting, you are never going to find yourself running out of resources, regardless of how gigantic your site gets.

While a traditional Virtual Private Server can be scaled up, there is a limit. The maximum resources you can get with a VPS are the equivalent of what the server is equipped with. So, if the server has 32GB of RAM and 4TB of hard drive space, you are never going to be able to get 64GB of RAM and 6TB of space. You won’t be able to even get 33GB of RAM (yes, we know it’s not possible, but we’re just making a point) and 4.01TB of space because it doesn’t physically exist.

However, with a cloud-based VPS, you don’t have the same restrictions. It’s a bit like the reverse of a traditional VPS system. Where the latter cuts up a physical server into multiple virtual machines, cloud-based hosting takes a bunch of servers, combines them into one massive virtual machine, and then turns it into a VPS-like system but splitting up that massive virtual machine into multiple small ones.

Besides scalability, another great advantage a cloud-based hosting system has is that it is more efficient at protecting your site against DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks. With a DDoS attack, a massive influx of requests is made to the server hosting the site, thereby overwhelming and crashing it, which means a DDoS attack is not a security issue in the strictest sense. This type of attack is used to bring a website down for various, often malicious, reasons.

When to Use Cloud Hosting
Cloud hosting is a great option for anyone looking for a scalable option that goes beyond traditional options.

However, it should be noted that a lot of hosts are switching their traditional VPS systems to cloud-based ones anyway because of the benefits they derive as well, including easier maintenance and less work.

So, even if you are shopping around for a regular VPS, you might still find yourself with cloud-based VPS hosting because so many companies are making the switch, with the majority imitating Google and Amazon’s cloud-based architectures.

Colocation Hosting
With colocation hosting, you buy your server, rent space in a data center’s rack and use their bandwidth. It requires you physically taking the server to the colocation provider and installing it, though some providers offer managed services and can handle the installation and maintenance. You then use the bandwidth, IP, and power is given to you by the provider. Colocation hosting is similar to having a dedicated server, except that you own the hardware. So, the advantages and disadvantages are similar, except that since it’s your server, you can do whatever you like without restriction, including upgrading the hardware.

On the flip side, if hardware fails, you will be the one responsible for the replacement, at least regarding cost.

Colocation can be more expensive than other forms of web hosting, especially once you factor in the investment in hardware. It should also be noted that the cost can fluctuate wildly as it is generally connected with the amount of data traffic. So, one month you could have a reasonable bill, while another it can be sky-high.

You might also have difficulty physically accessing the server, depending on where it is located. If something happens on Christmas day, for example, you’re probably going to take a little while to find someone to go to the server and fix the issue, whereas, with a regular web host, they’ll have a backup plan to ensure nothing goes wrong.

When to Use Colocation
If you want a simple blog or a relatively small website, then colocation is not worth the hassle. This is also true for any individual or business who doesn’t have the expertise to set up and maintain the server, despite the managed services available.

On the other hand, it is a good option for small to mid-size businesses who want to have a large web presence but don’t want to deal with the hassle of a regular web host.

Also, if you need a more robust solution than is available from a web host, colocation might be a good idea for you.

Web hosting control panel is a web-based user interface, that is accessible online and provides tools from which we can manage websites, web pages, databases, emails, and servers.

Nowadays almost every hosting company offering "Hosting Control Panels", specially it is compulsory with shared hosting plans and sometimes with VPS or Cloud Hosting. Hosting companies offering Control Panels with dedicated servers as add-on service.

Web hosting is a service in which individuals and organizations can keep their information in the form of a web page onto the internet. Web Hosting is a business that provides the services and technologies needed for the website or web portal to be accessed on the internet. The computers on which websites are hosted or stored are highly and specially configured and called servers.

Website hosting charges always attracting individuals and organisations, website hosting costs can vary, with prices starting very low and escalating all the way up to high – or even higher. The cost depends on a variety of factors, such as the type of website you have, how many monthly visitors you expect to have, and whether you need extra services such as automated backups and an email account.

Shared hosting always comes at a very low cost but this is beginner level web hosting. If you have a very low traffic website with a static page or a WordPress blog, then this is the best option.

VPS hosting is the next level from shared hosting. The major difference is that for all intents and purposes, it appears as though you’re running your own server. In actual words, your website is still one of several websites sharing a single server, but there are fewer websites sharing resources – meaning your site’s performance should be better.

Dedicated hosting always costly but you are paying for your own server. These services cost depends on how powerful your server will be. You can take managed dedicated server which cost more but not every dedicated hosting provider offers managed services.

Nowadays all big data centers offering Cloud hosting which is most robust and reliable. Cloud hosting is a bunch of more than 2 or three servers which is providing zero downtime so that it is a little costly compared to other hosting services. Cloud hosting providers offer hourly or usage-based plans which are attracting users most.

Web Hosting Cost
Being in the startup world, you're always looking for more cost-effective ways to run your website. Web hosting cost depends on your website design and development. If it simple and plain HTML based website so you can purchase a basic web hosting plan or if it dynamic web portal which is developed in Php, Mysql or dot net andMS-SQL so you need to host your website with the advance hosting plan.

Domain Cost
Every website needs a domain name to be hosted online. You can buy a domain name from any domain registrar. The cost of a domain name varies based on the domain extension (such as .com, .org, .net), domain registrar, availability, and few other factors.

You can also buy premium domain names from someone else who has registered it before you. Domain name investors often register premium domain names that are shorter, brandable, and easy to remember for the sole purpose of reselling.

It can be difficult for business owners to obtain an accurate quote to have a website hosted because the website hosting cost depends on the project. A business website always get more traffic which can increased use of hosting resources and web hosting provider may ask you for an extra charge for extra use of a resource or they can offer to upgrade your hosting plan.

So it is always a good idea to estimate your business website hosting cost before host your website.

The cost of a domain name varies based on the domain extension (such as .com, .org, .net), domain registrar, availability, and few other factors.

The maximum period of registration time allowed for a domain name is ten years. Per year domain name cost started from $12 to $18 (INR 900 to 1200) but that depends on the domain extension.

If you are planning to launch a website, there are several basic web hosting aspects that you should be familiar with before starting the website.

There are lots of web hosting related terms and concepts to wrap your head around. As you will soon see, some of it is confusing, if not outright contradictory.

Almost every web hosting company offers Shared hosting, the cheapest form of web hosting. With shared hosting, your website shares a server and server resources with many other sites. If you want to keep your web hosting budget small, and don't expect much traffic, shared hosting is the way to go.

It is always recommended for larger businesses that expect big traffic to their sites should pick VPS or dedicated hosting, each of which offers increasingly powerful server. VPS hosting is jusat like a high powered version of shared hosting, except that far fewer websites share a server's resources, which are also a bit more segregated.

Dedicated hosting is the most expensive type of hosting places your site on a server all by itself, so it can give a server's full resource. You may end up paying $100 per month or more for a dedicated server.

"Bandwidth" or "data transfer" is also one of the most important parts of the web hosting to define the amount of data that your website serves to visitors.

Bandwidth represents the total amount of data that can be transferred at one time, while data transfer is the throughput or the actual amount of information that can be used over a given period—typically a month. Think of it like this: a web host may have a maximum of 5GB bandwidth, but depending on your hosting plan, your site may only allow 1GB of data transfers per month. Unlimited means not everything Unlimited, web hosts offering to sign up for their web hosting plans by tempting you with the promise of unlimited storage or monthly data transfers. It is generally not a completely honest deal. It does not mean that these web hosts are straight-up lying, but the "unlimited" storage or data transfers boasts nearly always have limitations that vary by company. Unlimited storage and data transfer comes with shared or WordPress plans. If your blog gets a steady stream of reasonable traffic (whatever that may mean!), you'll be in good standing. However, you shouldn't expect to upload or stream 50TB of data per day.

You should consult a web host's terms of service, or a customer service representative, to learn exactly what you can and cannot do within the scope of your plan's unlimited offering.

Almost every web hosting company offers Linux as the operating system that powers their servers. Even if you aren't familiar with Linux, you don't need to do any special work on the back end to build a website. Website builders make building sites a breeze.

If your site needs the ASP or ASP.NET scripting frameworks, you will need to run with the Windows Server operating system. Asp or Asp.net required Windows-based environment.

Good hosting is very important to any website. They are the foundation of your website, your brand and your business. Any server downtime could potentially effect and ruin everything you have developed over the years. If you are serious about your website, you need to make sure they are in good hands.

Know What Kind of Web Host You Need<
Understanding the requirement of your business can help narrow your web hosting options. If you plan to build a website that features video blogging, 24-hour live streaming and the ability for visitors to register and upload their own videos, your website would require more features and resources than someone who just uses their website as a web address or share information for his business. Websites that receive a lot of daily traffic will likely not function well on a shared server because these servers are designed to accommodate a lot of small websites that have limited demands.

Get the Right Hosting Plan
Small businesses always looking to host their website on shared hosting as a way to save money, but with the smaller price tag comes a bigger risk of slow website response times. Slow websites turn customers away. You can get a best alternate to overcome this slow website problem with Virtual Private Server (VPS). VPS is slightly more expensive, but it provides a faster, higher quality web performance and delivers better customer experience.

Web Hosting Reviews also an Important factor
When researching the reliability and reputation of web hosts refer to reputable websites. Discovering any consistent issues or persistent complaints from current or past users is very useful research through third party reviews for a web hosting company. Pay attention to how the company responds to complaints if the company responds at all. This will give you an idea of how the company deals with unhappy customers.

Bandwidth also an important factor
New websites don’t use lots of bandwidths but it is important to keep sufficient room for growth. Make sure when choosing the web hosting company doesn’t lock you into a certain amount bandwidth and then charge you additionally if your website required more bandwidth.

Don’t Get Stuck on Price
Pricing always matter in web hosting. When you are a new business owner with a limited budget, the web hosting company offering the lowest price. There are plenty of very decent, low priced web hosting companies. However, if you need something more than “decent” you are going to have to pay more for it. The cheapest price might just result in slow servers, poor customer service, constant downtime, and an association with thousands of unprofessional websites that can be cause for embarrassment for your website.

Read the Terms of Service Don't forget to read the Terms of Service. People accept the Terms of Service without bothering to read exactly what they’re signing. The Terms of Service usually includes the refund policy, data and other hosting resources usage policy which might be good to know later.

Customer Support
When you are finding a best web hosting company, always keep customer support numbers and other ways to contact customer support. Find a quick and easy way to contact them via email, online chat, or 24/7 phone support. Be sure to verify each feature before you purchase their services to see if they meet the needs of your web hosting requirement.

Backup Plan, must needed feature
Backup is the most important part of any type of web hosting. It doesn’t really matter why your website is down or why you have lost your website’s data. You need to know if the web hosting company you choose has a backup plan to help you recover just in case. You should ask your service provider for backup management if you didn't get a proper reply you know what you need to do.

You should consult a web host's terms of service, or a customer service representative, to learn exactly what you can and cannot do within the scope of your plan's unlimited offering.

Security Concern
Website and data security always a big headache for website owners. Security breaches happen and sometimes it creates a very embarrassing situation when the website got hacked or your VPS or Dedicated server compromised. It is a very dangerous situation when your customer's data not safe, Make sure your web hosting company can provide Secure Sockets Layer to safeguard your customer’s private information. This is an essential feature in providing customers with safe transactions and it should be a feature that’s provided by the web hosting company.

Website Hosting has many advantages. The web hosting service is a platform from which you can introduce and promote your business or promote yourself as an expert, blogger or adviser but the hassles of setting up that website can make you question whether the attention is worth it at all.

Web hosting service has lots of pros and cons. Specially when you have a low budget for web hosting services. May be or may not be helpful for the bigger businesses and companies that have a large budget provided for the web hosting services and its features.

Pros
One of the important pros of having a good web host is that they will provide you with some additional features such as specially designed tools.

High Security
Security is probably the most important part of a web hosting service. That is because nobody wants to host their sensitive information on a server that is not much secured. So nowadays almost every web hosting service provides a high-level security system for their clients and offers free SSL. Without high enough security people wouldn’t use a web hosting service. They will rather pay more money for less space that is more secure than a huge space that is not reliable.

Cons
Due to the advancement of technology there are really not many cons of Web hosting. There were certainly a lot more cons to the hosting services. But fortunately, the advancing technology has almost ruled them all out. However, there are still few that are worth mentioning such as the space sharing on the servers that some web hosting services do.

The sharing of space means it will give the same storage space for two or more different users. That is beneficial for both the host and the client. because the host saves money because they do not need to buy new servers and the client gets web hosting at a low cost. However, The costing problem usually occurs with smaller businesses. Because they cannot afford to pay for a server that will be dedicated to only them. The problem with sharing the same space is that some businesses can suffer from others. That is because if some business is sending out a huge amount of Spam. The other websites that are on the same server can be blocked. Away due to the Spam that is coming from that server. That can lead to the loss of visitors on the website.

There are over 4 billion people using the internet every day. If you want to attract people to your website, you need to find a good web host company to help you start your journey.

Yet, with all these excellent upsides there must always be downsides.

Cons
Cons aren’t necessarily a bad thing, they are something you need to be aware of and keep an eye on. Constant vigilance!

Hosting Your Own Website in a Shared Space
Generally, one shared server will have about 1,000 websites or more that is depend on server configuration and service provider will.

Shared Hosting is fine for many website owners who only want to share his company details like services or products, eventually, you may need to move to a VPS or Dedicated Server environment.

A shared server hosts hundreds of users and has access to features like databases, monthly traffic, disk space, email accounts, FTP accounts, and other add-ons granted by the hosting service provider. Shared hosting always very cost-effective and easy to maintain.

Fewer Resources Available
While you are sharing a server with others, all the resources available to you are being shared with everyone. That means your storage space, RAM and CPU are being shared with many people. If a lot of people are using the server and/or a large amount is being stored in the servers, latency can be an issue. You will have too much traffic going through the server. This will lead to performance issues on your website. As an example, when you have many people coming from different directions it turns into a traffic jam. Everything halts, no one is going anywhere.

Security Risks
More traffic always good for websites, but it can be also caused by hacking. Look for web hosts that provide security protocols. Web host provider that offers extra website hosting services will be beneficial to you. Look for web host providers that deliver beyond a simple shared host product. This could mean more data protection, great customer service, offering more applications, etc. This ensures more safety and less worry for you.

VPS Hosting
VPS hosting also an upgraded version of shared hosting and you are still sharing a physical server. Even so, it is with a finite amount of people and much fewer people.

VPS hosting is most useful and beneficial for growing smaller companies, or for medium-sized companies.

Pros
People who get VPS hosting consider the various benefits of it. There are some advantages of VPS hosting, including:

Hosting Your Own Website with Privacy
You may have VPS on the same physical server as a couple of other people, but you have your own storage space and separate virtual RAM and CPUs . You have your virtual server all to yourself.

To make better sense of this, you are sharing one larger server with a group of people. This server is broken up into individual virtual servers. This virtual server is dedicated to you alone.

Resources to Spare
As you have your own storage space, you don’t share resources such as CPUs and RAM with anyone else. Each VPS user on the server will get an allotted amount of server space. This means you won’t have anyone encroaching on the space you need.

Since you aren’t sharing your server with loads of people, you will have fewer issues with latency. Lower latency allows for more traffic on your website, more traffic leads to more sales of your products and/or services.

More Security
If you are not sharing your space with so many people, it becomes easier to protect your important data. Even if someone on the same server as you became compromised, your server would not be affected.

Customizable
You are free to manage your website. There are no restrictions on what you can do with your website. While there are too many advantages to have, you will always have the other half of the coin (disadvantages).

Cons
VPS hosting make it possible to have the services of a dedicated server without the cost of dedicated server. However, some potential issues are inevitable with the VPS hosting.

More Expensive
VPS hosting plans are expensive compare to shared hosting, you pay anywhere between $15 to $150 per month. The more expensive plans are being used by people who need more traffic coming in and out of their website.

Need Technical Experience
If you are using a VPS hosting you will need much more experience managing it, no one is going to run it for you. You have to set up all your services and make sure you are updating the server software you are using. It is recommended to use any control panel from which you can manage your VPS easily.

On top of that, if anything goes wrong you need to fix it yourself. If you can’t, you will need to hire someone else to do it for you. You may be able to contact the web host provider for some help, but there is only so much they will aid you with for free.

You may get some support from the VPS host provider, which can be chargeable or free depends on host provider terms of service.

A static website means a website that contains web pages with fixed content. The content of the page is in HTML, and all users see the same thing.

For example, you can use this type of website if your contents are fixed and not required periodic changes.

Static Websites or Web pages are built using simple languages such as HTML, CSS or JavaScript. Web page contents are returned by the server with no change, therefore, static websites are fast. Static web hosting not required any database interaction or in a simple language, not a required database. Static web hosting not much costly as the host need not support server-side processing with different languages.

Dynamic Websites, Web pages are returned by the server which are processed during runtime means they are not prebuilt web pages but they are built during runtime according to the user’s demand with the help of server-side scripting languages such as PHP, Node.js, ASP.NET and many more supported by the server. So, they are slower than static websites but updates and interaction with databases are possible.

Dynamic Websites are used over Static Websites as updates can be done very easily as compared to static websites (Where altering in every page is required) but in Dynamic Websites, it is possible to do a common change once and it will reflect in all the web pages.

Internet Information Services is the actual meaning of IIS, which is the most popular web server of Microsoft. It is a closed software product and supported solely by Microsoft.

IIS supported all standard HTML web pages and dynamic web pages, such as ASP.NET applications and PHP pages. When a visitor accesses a page on a static website, IIS simply sends the HTML and associated images to the user’s browser. When a page on a dynamic website is accessed, IIS runs any applications and processes any scripts contained in the page, then sends the resulting data to the user’s browser.

While IIS includes all the features necessary to host a static or dynamic website, it also supports extensions (or “modules”) that add extra functionality to the server. For example, the Win Cache Extension enables PHP scripts to run faster by caching PHP processes. The URL Rewrite module allows webmasters to publish pages with friendly URLs that are easier for visitors to type and remember. A streaming extension can be installed to provide streaming media to website visitors.

IIS is also popular to host commercial websites since it offers many advanced features and is supported by Microsoft. However, it also requires a commercial license and the pricing increases depending on the number of users.
