An evaluation of hostatnocost

We, at asaasmateen.com, have picked 'hostatnocost' to be our current domain and hosting distributor. This is why we think that this succinct assessment of 'hostatnocost' is probably going to be quite helpful for other individuals from all around the Globe who are searching for domain name and web hosting solutions. We state folks from all around the World, because the mere truth is that 'hostatnocost' currently supplies domain and hosting services in numerous data center facility sites: in the US (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thereby, encompassing approximately the whole World. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'hostatnocost' in short:

Shared Web Space Hosting Accounts

The first detail we, at asaasmateen.com, have seen is the low prices of the shared website hosting solutions provided by 'hostatnocost'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good news here is that the webspace hosting accounts delivered by 'hostatnocost' are powered by an in-house built, futuristic cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, CP, web space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being run on an independent stack of web servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance ANY cPanel web hosting corporation in the World will have huge predicaments with, because cPanel is a single server based web hosting platform (each hosting service, like mail, databases, hosting Control Panel, web space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being run on a single hosting server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel web hosting suppliers cannot include additional functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file platform (they must invent their own file system), which is the prerequisite of any cloud web hosting service. Let's get back to the shared hosting plans, which are driven by an actual clustered web space hosting platform. With a shared website hosting account, each customer pays just for his/her plan, thus keeping the web space hosting price amazingly low (because numerous users are hosted on the same server). In short, a shared hosting package, which runs on a clustered hosting platform, allows you to pay only for the resources that you really require, evading a situation where you pay for a feature-rich webspace hosting plan that you cannot actually utilize, or for a low-end web space hosting plan that cannot handle your website. The option to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only two clicks gives you the flexibility to kick off with a basic plan and upgrade as your Internet presence grows. In this way, you spare money that you can spend on publicizing the website while it is still new. Each web page hosting account provided by 'hostatnocost' offers an online web site building tool and more than forty popular script-driven platforms among them WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you hundreds of dollars for web design services. 'hostatnocost' delivers shared webspace hosting plans in several different countries across the World. There is one server farm in Chicago covering the US and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in the United Kingdom and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. Hence, practically the entire planet is covered to provide you and your website's visitors with a steady and dependable web hosting solution at a nearby place. All in all, the shared hosting solutions offered 'hostatnocost' are really well equipped and are available at a low-cost price (beginning from $4.42 for the Bronze package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To clients with little to no practice, a virtual private web server may seem difficult to administer. That's probably why 'hostatnocost' also houses semi-dedicated hosting servers in its main United States data center in Chicago. Handling these plans is similar to managing a conventional shared web space hosting package through a web site hosting Control Panel interface. They have all the specs of a shared web space hosting package such as a free site builder and a script installer, but the system resource quota typical of a semi-dedicated server hosting plan is many times bigger than that of a shared web site hosting account. For instance, the CPU power that can be utilized is about FIVE times as much as compared with the shared hosting packages. When juxtaposed to a shared web space hosting package, the number of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting plans is huge: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted domain quota is a pattern too. The semi-dedicated packages do not include full root access (we, at asaasmateen.com, deem this a tiny weakness), but the benefit is that they are administered through the same website hosting Control Panel interface as the shared plans. This indicates that a known graphical interface is available to all clients who do not feel self-confident enough to manage a virtual private hosting server, yet need more power and resources than a virtual web hosting server can offer. This is like that because the semi-dedicated hosting servers share the resources of the same powerful first-class hosting servers as the ones which host the VPS server accounts, however, the number of the semi-dedicated web hosting servers is quite small (somewhere between 20 to 30 per server), while the VPS web hosting servers can reach a much bigger number (80 to one hundred and twenty per physical machine). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers offered by 'hostatnocost' can be dubbed as being very inexpensive (as far as cost is concerned), beginning from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

In asaasmateen.com's opinion, large web sites such as social networks, community and business portals or popular web storefronts with 1000s of clients request a much more powerful web space hosting solution. It seems that the fellows from 'hostatnocost' have reached the same conclusion as well. To meet its clients' expectations, 'hostatnocost' provides an assortment of dedicated web servers that can handle millions of daily hits. That assessment stands on the hardware specs the dedicated hosting servers are offering: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to 4 gigabytes of RAM, 2000 GB of storage space and Gigabit network cards will beyond doubt ensure the fast and steady performance of any kind of site. In 'hostatnocost's opinion, the original hardware specs can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring sites. We, from asaasmateen.com, deem that all dedicated server specifications provided by 'hostatnocost' are also suitable for initiating a hosting reseller business as each and every web hosting server arrives with free-of-charge invoice transaction software and a free-of-charge domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated hosting servers offered by 'hostatnocost' are all unmanaged. We, at asaasmateen.com, think that this is a slight negative point, which can be corrected by paying a monthly fee which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you are in need of backing, the Managed Services upgrade provides various supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. A bunch of web space hosting CP (CP) user interfaces are offered with each of the hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (asaasmateen.com's) prediction is that the impressive point and click File Manager available in the Hepsia web site hosting Control Panel will possibly make the utilization of any File Transfer Protocol software useless. Our (asaasmateen.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers furnished by 'hostatnocost' don't appear to be very affordably priced (still the Hepsia web site hosting CP and the unmetered hosted domain quotas will doubtlessly make you smile), starting from $80.00 for the Xeon E3 v5 plan.
