A review of GreenHosting

We, at paleontologist.ru, have chosen 'GreenHosting' to be our present domain name and hosting vendor. This is why we deem that this short assessment of 'GreenHosting' is perchance going to be very helpful for other people from all around the Globe in need of domain name and web hosting services. We say individuals from all around the Globe, since the simple truth is that 'GreenHosting' presently provides domain and hosting services in several data center locations: in North America (Chicago, IL), in Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, encompassing almost the entire planet. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'GreenHosting' in brief:

Shared Site Hosting Solutions

The first thing we, at paleontologist.ru, have spotted is the budget prices of the shared web hosting plans delivered by 'GreenHosting'. 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 'GreenHosting' are driven by a custom invented, leading edge cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, web page hosting CP, storage space, DNS, stats, etc., is being tackled by an independent stack of hosting servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting corporation in the World will have enormous difficulties with, because cPanel is a one single server based website hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, site hosting Control Panel, disk space, DNS, stats, etc., is being run on a single web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel-based website hosting suppliers cannot include new functionality and handle it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they have to construct their own file system), 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 a genuine cloud web site hosting system. With a shared web hosting plan, each client pays just for his/her account, thus preserving the price really low (because lots of users use one and the same server). In a few words, a shared hosting package, which is hosted on a cloud web space hosting solution, enables you to pay only for the reserves that you actually demand, refraining from a scenario where you pay for a feature-rich hosting account that you cannot truly utilize, or for a small web hosting plan that cannot handle your site. The ability to upgrade your account from one package to another with just 2 clicks gives you the flexibility to commence with a low-end package and upgrade as your web page expands. Thus, you save cash that you can spend on publicizing the website while it is still brand new. Every web space hosting account offered by 'GreenHosting' comes with an online website builder and more than forty widely used script software platforms such as WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you 100s of dollars for web page design services. 'GreenHosting' distributes shared webspace hosting services in several different regions across the World. There is one server farm facility in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; two European datacenter facilities - in England and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. Thus, approximately the entire Globe is covered to present you and your web page's visitors with a steady and reliable web page hosting service at a convenient location. On the whole, the shared hosting packages furnished 'GreenHosting' are quite well stocked and come at an excellent price (beginning from $5.08 for the mini plan).

Dedicated Web Servers

According to paleontologist.ru, enormous web pages such as social networks, community and corporate web portals or famous online shops with 1000s of customers need a much more powerful webspace hosting solution. It appears that the guys from 'GreenHosting' have reached the same conclusion as well. To fulfil its customers' demands, 'GreenHosting' offers a number of dedicated hosting servers that can manage millions of daily hits. That estimate is based on the hardware specifications the dedicated servers ship with: multi-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of web space and Gigabit network cards will no doubt ensure the quick and steady work of any type of web site. According to 'GreenHosting', the primary hardware specs can be upgraded for more system resource-demanding websites. We, from paleontologist.ru, believe that all dedicated server configurations delivered by 'GreenHosting' are also suitable for commencing a hosting reseller business as each and every web server arrives with free-of-cost invoicing software and a charge-free domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated web servers furnished by 'GreenHosting' are all unmanaged. We, at paleontologist.ru, count this as a minor negative point, which can be amended by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you require aid, the Managed Services upgrade provides a handful of extra services such as a regular backup, software installation, server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. An assortment of hosting Control Panel (CP) user interfaces are available with each of the web servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (paleontologist.ru's) forecast is that the excellent drag and drop File Manager available in the Hepsia web hosting CP will perhaps make the utilization of any File Transfer Protocol software futile. Our (paleontologist.ru's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers offered by 'GreenHosting' don't appear to be very cheap (still the Hepsia web page hosting CP and the unmetered hosted domain name allowance will undoubtedly make you smile), commencing from $145.00 for the Xeon Scalable 8c package.
