Quality Shared Hosting
You know what "Shared Hosting" mean. It is a hosting service that provides site owners with certain amounts of disc space and bandwidth on shared web server with many other websites.Shared hosting services are inexpensive because the resources that any website is allowed to use depend of all other websites hosted on the same machine. Overselling Hosting There are two different business models of producing and selling shared hosting. The most popular one today unfortunately is "Overselling Hosting". This is what most shared web hosts do. They heavily oversell the resources on their servers to gain maximum profit. this results in poor performance of the web servers and in cheap hosting service. There is speculation that most customers on heavily oversold server will not use the resources "guaranteed" in their service plans. This is the only "Lucky option" for any overselling web host. Once any website owners starts using what they got promised, overselling web hosts begin limiting their resources. The only thing anyone needs to know to recognize a "Overselling Hosting" offer is to take a look at the disc space and bandwidth quotas. Offerings that include 750 GB disc space and 7,500 GB monthly transfer or even 1,500 GB spacea nd 15,000 storage are fake and phoney. Why? Because even a powerful server has a few hard drives 320 GB - 1000 GB each. Even if any overselling host has invested thousands of dollars in any of their servers they still can not fulfil their promises and to provide customers with above service quotas. Most web hosts that oversell do not invest in equipment because it is much easy for them to mislead their customers. That's why they do not invest in high end equipment such as blade servers and clustering technologies. We would like apologize to our customers and visitors that we have to explain the worst practices in web hosting. But since we identify ourselves as honest web hosting provider we feel obliged to explain our view about web hosting. We think that overselling is immoral and corrupted business practise. Quality Shared Hosting We talk about "Quality Shared Hosting" not "Quality Hosting" because we do not presume that any web hosting provider would do use overselling techniques in VPS hosting or any other business class web hosting. "Quality Shared Hosting" means that providers must guarantee the usage of resources listed in web hosting service plan. It also means that web hosts must not promote unrealistic or false offerings. If any web server is equipped with three RAID 5 mirrored hard drives, 1,000 GB disc space each, this will allow the web hosting provider to sell no more than 1,000 shared hosting plan (1 GB each). Of course the server must be powerful enough and not to overload when websites get thousands of visitors. Here in Host Color "Quality Shared Hosting" means that we do web hosting about people, not about gigabytes. We look at web hosting service as something that helps you to implement you project or to develop and manage successful website. We do not sell disc space and bandwidth. That's why build community of customers who care about their websites. This means to understand the nature of web business and web hosting.
