How Does Shared Hosting Work?

If you are seeking a moderately priced website hosting service, the service for you is called hosting.

What Is Hosting?

Over the years, the demand for hosting solutions has increased vastly, but people also prefer inexpensive prices. The service web hosting service providers have come up with is called hosting. These web hosting companies accommodate many clients on one and the very same hosting server, ensuring that they do not intervene with each other by setting restrictions on the server resources each shared hosting account is permitted to make use of. This allows for both agreeable performance and lower operating costs in contrast to a dedicated server, which is used by only a single customer, and permits web hosting corporations to offer modest prices to their customers.

What can you do with a hosting account?

The hosting accounts typically offer various web site, email and database administration tools - a web hosting CP, a File Manager tool, an FTP software client, a phpMyAdmin interface, and typically webmail - to check your email mailboxes. At Lime Server, we offer all these tools at inexpensive rates. We have both monthly and annual billing options and also offer a cheap domain registration with each of our shared hosting plans. You can also administer everything from one place with us - our intuitive hosting Control Panel has all the functions you need to administer your web files, Domain Name System records, register and renew more domains, create mail accounts and e-mail aliases, enable e-mail forwarding and auto-configure your mail client software. How many domain names you can host in your account depends on the website hosting plan you have, but traffic and web server storage space are unlimited - you are solely limited when it comes to the CPU utilization and the number of hosted domain names.

Backup

Beside all the usual features, it is very important when the web hosting supplier ensures that your web hosting content is safe. So, the availability of scheduled backups is crucial and you should make sure in advance if the host of your choosing is offering such. We perform daily backups and preserves backups for the past one week. The backup consists of your web site files and databases and to have it repaired, you need to touch base with our technical support team. They get back to you in less than an hour, so if you deleted those files haphazardly - do not panic, hope dies hard!
