A survey of Electro-Host

We, at mixles.co.uk, have chosen 'Electro-Host' to be our current domain and hosting vendor. Hence we suppose that this brief review of 'Electro-Host' is maybe going to be very useful for other people from all over the World in need of domain name and web hosting solutions. We state individuals from all around the Globe, since the simple fact is that 'Electro-Host' currently furnishes domain and hosting services in multiple datacenter facility sites: in the United States (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, covering practically the entire Globe. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'Electro-Host' in brief:

Shared Web Space Hosting Services

The first detail we, at mixles.co.uk, have perceived is the modest prices of the shared site hosting plans provided by 'Electro-Host'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared hosting. The good thing here is that the website hosting accounts furnished by 'Electro-Host' are driven by an in-house invented, futuristic cloud web hosting solution (each web hosting service, such as mail, databases, web hosting CP, data storage, DNS, stats, and so on, runs on a separate group of web hosting servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance EVERY cPanel web hosting vendor in the World will have enormous complications with, because cPanel is a single server based website hosting platform (each hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, webspace hosting Control Panel, web space, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being handled by one and the same server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel site hosting companies are not able to add new functionality and manipulate it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they have to invent their own file system), which is the basis of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared site hosting packages, which are driven by an authentic cloud webspace hosting system. With a shared web hosting plan, each customer pays just for his/her plan, thus keeping the web site hosting price very low (since multiple clients share one and the same hosting server). In short, a shared hosting account, which is hosted on a cloud hosting system, enables you to pay only for the resources that you really demand, precluding a scenario where you pay for an advanced site hosting plan that you cannot truly use, or for a basic hosting account that cannot handle your website. The possibility to upgrade your account from one package to another with just two clicks grants you the flexibility to start with a low-end plan and upgrade as your web page grows. In this way, you spare funds that you can expend on publicizing the website while it is still novel. Each web space hosting plan furnished by 'Electro-Host' includes an online website building tool and more than 40 widely used script software platforms among them WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you 100s of dollars for web site design services. 'Electro-Host' provides shared web page hosting accounts in several different geographical regions across the Globe. There is one data center facility in Chicago encompassing the United States of America and Canada; 2 European datacenter facilities - in Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific region. In this way, virtually the whole World is encompassed to present you and your web page's visitors with a steady and fast site hosting service at a preferred location. On the whole, the shared hosting packages supplied 'Electro-Host' are very well appointed and come at a very low price (starting from £3.99 for the Starter plan).

Dedicated Web Servers

According to mixles.co.uk, large websites such as social networks, community and business portals or popular web stores with 1000s of clients require a much more powerful web site hosting platform. It seems that the guys from 'Electro-Host' have reached the same conclusion as well. To meet its customers' anticipations, 'Electro-Host' supplies an array of dedicated servers that can manage millions of daily visits. That estimation rests on the hardware specifications the dedicated servers are offering: many-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, 2000 GB of web space and Gigabit network cards will definitely ensure the quick and stable work of any kind of web site. In 'Electro-Host's opinion, the original hardware specs can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring websites. We, from mixles.co.uk, deem that all dedicated server configurations delivered by 'Electro-Host' are also appropriate for initiating a hosting reseller business as each web server offers free-of-cost billing software and a free domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated web hosting servers provided by 'Electro-Host' are all unmanaged. We, at mixles.co.uk, think that this is a small minus, which can be amended by paying a monthly tax of £30.99 GBP. So, if you are in need of help, the Managed Services upgrade provides several supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, web hosting server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. A bunch of web space hosting CP (CP) user interfaces are available with each of the dedicated web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (mixles.co.uk's) prediction is that the impressive point and click File Manager added in the Hepsia web space hosting CP will probably render the utilization of any FTP software program useless. Our (mixles.co.uk's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers offered by 'Electro-Host' don't appear to be very inexpensive (yet the Hepsia CP and the unlimited hosted domain allowance will doubtlessly make you smile), starting from £34.51 for the Atom 2c plan.
