A survey of Exclusive Hosting

We, at dmf.sa, have picked 'Exclusive Hosting' to be our present domain and web hosting supplier. Hence we deem that this brief assessment of 'Exclusive Hosting' is maybe going to be very helpful for other people from all around the World who are searching for domain name and web hosting solutions. We state folks from all over the World, since the mere fact is that 'Exclusive Hosting' currently delivers domain and hosting services in numerous server farm sites: in the United States of America (Chicago, IL), in Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thereby, covering virtually the entire World. At least from the point of view of the World Wide Web. So, here is what you could expect from 'Exclusive Hosting' in a few words:

Shared Web Space Hosting Plans

The initial thing we, at dmf.sa, have perceived is the reasonable prices of the shared web space hosting accounts provided by 'Exclusive Hosting'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the site hosting packages provided by 'Exclusive Hosting' are powered by a custom designed, state-of-the-art cloud web hosting solution (each hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, web site hosting CP, data storage, DNS, stats, and so on, runs on a separate stack of servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting vendor on the Globe will have considerable predicaments with, because cPanel is a one-server based web site hosting platform (each hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, web hosting CP, storage space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being dealt with by one single hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel web site hosting vendors are not able to add additional functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file platform (they need to design their own file platform), which is at the bottom of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared website hosting plans, which are driven by an actual cloud hosting platform. With a shared webspace hosting package, each customer pays just for his/her plan, thus keeping the hosting price very low (since multiple users are hosted on one and the same web server). In short, a shared hosting package, which is hosted on a clustered site hosting solution, allows you to pay solely for the resources that you indeed require, evading a scenario where you pay for a feature-rich site hosting account that you cannot actually use, or for a low-end web space hosting package that cannot shelter your web site. The possibility to upgrade your account from one package to another with only 2 mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to kick off with a low-end package and upgrade as your online presence expands. In this way, you save money that you can spend on publicizing the site while it is still novel. Each web space hosting plan supplied by 'Exclusive Hosting' offers an online web site building tool and over forty popular script-driven platforms including WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you hundreds of dollars for web page design services. 'Exclusive Hosting' delivers shared web site hosting solutions in several different regions around the Globe. There is one datacenter facility in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in Great Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. Hence, virtually the whole Globe is encompassed to present you and your web site's visitors with a stable and reliable site hosting solution at a convenient location. Altogether, the shared hosting plans furnished 'Exclusive Hosting' are really well appointed and come at a very reasonable price (beginning from $3.25 for the Exclusive package).

Semi-dedicated Web Hosting Servers

To clients with little or no practice, a private virtual server may seem hard to handle. That's probably why 'Exclusive Hosting' also keeps semi-dedicated servers in its main American server farm in Chicago. Managing these accounts is comparable to handling a regular shared site hosting plan through a website hosting CP interface. They have all the functionalities of a shared web page hosting plan such as a free web site building tool and a web application installation tool, but the system resource quota offered by a semi-dedicated server web hosting package is many times bigger than that of a shared site hosting plan. For instance, the CPU power that can be utilized is nearly FIVE times as much as compared with the shared web site hosting accounts. When juxtaposed to a shared hosting account, the quota of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is great: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted top-level domain name quota is a principle as well. The semi-dedicated web server hosting packages do not offer root privileges (we, at dmf.sa, deem this a minor drawback), but the advantage is that they are managed via the same web hosting CP interface as the shared webspace hosting packages. This means that a known graphical interface is available to all users who do not feel confident enough to administer a VPS web server, yet require more power and features than a VPS web hosting server can furnish them with. This is like that due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web servers share the system resources of the same powerful high-end hosting servers as the ones which host the private virtual server hosting packages, still, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is very low (somewhere between twenty to thirty per physical server), whereas the VPSs can reach a much bigger number (eighty to one hundred and twenty per physical server). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers provided by 'Exclusive Hosting' can be branded as being quite inexpensive (as far as price is concerned), beginning from $22.00 for the Rocket plan.

Dedicated Servers

According to dmf.sa, big web sites such as social networks, community and corporate portals or famous online stores with thousands of customers demand a much more powerful web site hosting platform. It appears that the chaps from 'Exclusive Hosting' have reached the same conclusion as well. To fulfil its clients' requirements, 'Exclusive Hosting' offers a selection of dedicated web hosting servers that can handle millions of daily visits. That assessment is based on the hardware specs the web hosting servers come with: multi-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, two thousand GB of web space and Gigabit network interface cards will undoubtedly guarantee the fast and steady work of any sort of site. In 'Exclusive Hosting's opinion, the original hardware configurations can be upgraded for more system resource-demanding web sites. We, from dmf.sa, think that all dedicated server solutions offered by 'Exclusive Hosting' are also suitable for establishing a hosting reseller business as each hosting server comes with free-of-charge invoicing transaction software and a fee-free domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated hosting servers offered by 'Exclusive Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at dmf.sa, deem this a small drawback, which can be righted by paying a monthly fee of $32.00 USD. So, if you require assistance, the Managed Services upgrade provides an assortment of additional services such as a routine backup, software installation, web server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. An array of web hosting CP (CP) tools are offered with each of the dedicated web servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (dmf.sa's) prognosis is that the splendid point and click File Manager added in the Hepsia web hosting CP will possibly render the use of any File Transfer Protocol client pointless. Our (dmf.sa's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers offered by 'Exclusive Hosting' don't seem to be very cheap (still the Hepsia CP and the unmetered hosted domain name quotas will no doubt make you smile), commencing from $95.00 for the X1 SSD plan.
