Cheap Web Hosting Guide

People are often confused whether to purchase a highly priced hosting packages or low priced hosting packages. Its human tendency to assume that expensive services are always better than inexpensive ones. However this is not always true as we at ItsMyLinux.com (BiAnz.in) also provide you cheap web hosting packages with top notch support and excellent quality services. We treat your site like a baby on our server.

Its not advisable to purchase hosting from those companies who offers you to pay $1 per month for unlimited web space and unlimited bandwidth as no one can provide you the same. Its advisable to get a proper support from hosting companies first, so that you can atleast be sure that they really exist and all the information as given on their site is not bogus. They must have some office and staff to manage the day to day activities and not just a one man running business from his home.

To test you may drop emails to them and see how fast they reply to you as its a plus point for you if you get fast responses from that company. You may even ask few references of their existing customers so that you can get a clear picture of that hosting company. Read their terms and condition clearly as many a time cheap web hosting provers have lot of uncommon hidden terms and conditions which may lead to termination of your account in future.

Shared or dedicated hosting. Which one is better for me?
In very simple terms Shared hosting also known as Virual hosting is one where your hosting company hosts lot of websites on one server, i.e. your site as well as your neighbour's website may be hosted on the same server. By the name itself you can think that in shared hosting server space is shared between many users. While in dedicated hosting, your site alone is hosted on server, you own all the space on web server and space is not shared with any other user. The whole server is dedicated to your sites.

Shared hosting is cheap where as dedicated hosting is costly.
The reason why shared is cheap is simple. Suppose a web hosting company purchsed a web server with 80 GB web space then the company can sell it to 80 users with 1 gb space for each user and this brings the profit to the hosting company. Wher as in dedicated hosting you have to pay alone for that 80 Gb web space. Most of the people go with shared hosting as its cheap in comparison to dedicated hosting.

Multi Domain Hosting is where you can host more than one domain under one hosting account.
Eg  if you own abc.com, lmn.com and xyz.com and you want a cost effective solution to host all of them then multi domain hosting is the answer. Here you get one control panel to manage all your domains. You may get a cPanel control panel for your main domain and from there you can create hosting accounts for other domains too.

When you create hosting accounts for other domains than a subfolder is created under your main domain and it has everything just like in main domain. You can create email ids, databases for those other domains from the main cPanel control panel itself.

Multi Domain Hosting is good if you want to fully utilize the web hosting space as provided to you by your hosting company as the aame space is shared between all the domains hosted under that main account.

However its advisable to not to purcahse Multi domain web hosting if you want to provide individual control panels to each of the domain as you get only one control panel to mange all the domains in  multi domain hosting.

If you are a web designer and don't want to provide control panel to your clients than multi domain hosting is the ultimate choice as it cuts your hosting cost significantly.
