A review of Exclusive Hosting

We, at imageproweb.com, have chosen 'Exclusive Hosting' to be our present domain name and web hosting distributor. Therefore we presume that this succinct assessment of 'Exclusive Hosting' is probably going to be quite helpful for other folks from all around the Globe who seek domain name and web hosting services. We say folks from all around the World, because the mere fact is that 'Exclusive Hosting' currently delivers domain and hosting services in several data center sites: in America (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, encompassing nearly the entire World. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'Exclusive Hosting' in a nutshell:

Shared Web Site Hosting Packages

The first thing we, at imageproweb.com, have noted is the cut-rate prices of the shared web site hosting packages supplied by 'Exclusive Hosting'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the hosting accounts provided by 'Exclusive Hosting' are powered by an in-house devised, futuristic cloud web hosting solution (each web hosting service, like email, databases, website hosting Control Panel, disk storage, DNS, statistics, etc., is being dealt with by a separate bunch of web hosting servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting distributor in the World will have colossal predicaments with, since cPanel is a one single server based webspace hosting environment (each hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, webspace hosting CP, disk storage, DNS, stats, and so on, is being tackled by a single hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel-based hosting firms are unable to include new functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file platform (they need to develop their own file system), which is the precondition of any cloud web hosting service. Let's get back to the shared webspace hosting accounts, which are driven by a genuine clustered web page hosting solution. With a shared web site hosting account, each client pays only for his/her package, thus maintaining the site hosting price very low (since plenty of clients utilize one and the same server). To cut a long story short, a shared hosting package, which is hosted on a clustered website hosting system, allows you to pay only for the resources that you really demand, averting a scenario where you pay for an advanced web site hosting account that you cannot truly utilize, or for a basic web page hosting plan that cannot handle your web page. The possibility to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only 2 clicks of the mouse gives you the flexibility to begin with a low-end plan and upgrade as your web site grows. Hence, you spare money that you can invest in publicizing the web page while it is still brand new. Each site hosting account furnished by 'Exclusive Hosting' offers an online website builder and more than forty widely used script software applications including WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you 100s of dollars for web site design services. 'Exclusive Hosting' offers shared webspace hosting services in a number of different geographical regions across the Globe. There is one server farm in Chicago encompassing the United States and Canada; 2 European data center facilities - in Great Britain and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia-Pacific region. Thus, practically the whole Globe is covered to provide you and your site's visitors with a stable and reliable web hosting solution at a preferred place. As a whole, the shared hosting accounts supplied 'Exclusive Hosting' are very well stocked and are available at an affordable price (starting from $3.25 for the Exclusive package).

Semi-dedicated Web Hosting Servers

To people with little or no experience, a private virtual server may seem hard to handle. That's perhaps why 'Exclusive Hosting' also offers semi-dedicated hosting servers in its principal United States datacenter in Chicago. Managing these plans is similar to managing a normal shared site hosting package via a web space hosting Control Panel user interface. They have all the functionalities of a shared web site hosting account such as a fee-free website builder and a web app installer, but the system resource quota typical of a semi-dedicated web hosting server plan is many times larger than that of a shared hosting account. For instance, the CPU power that can be used is almost 5 times as much as compared with the shared site hosting accounts. When compared with a shared web page hosting account, the number of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is vast: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted top-level domain name quota is a rule too. The semi-dedicated web hosting server plans do not come with root-level access (we, at imageproweb.com, consider this a small disadvantage), but the benefit is that they are administered through the same hosting Control Panel interface as the shared web hosting accounts. This implies that a known graphical interface is offered to all users who do not have enough self-condifence to handle a VPS, but at the same time demand more power and resources than a private virtual hosting server can deliver. This is so owing to the fact that the semi-dedicated servers share the system resources of the very same powerful hyper-advanced web servers as the ones which accommodate the virtual server packages, still, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is very low (somewhere between 20 to 30 per physical server), while the private virtual hosting servers can reach a much higher number (eighty to one hundred and twenty per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers supplied by 'Exclusive Hosting' can be dubbed as being amazingly cheap (as far as price is concerned), starting from $22.00 for the Rocket plan.

Dedicated Servers

In imageproweb.com's opinion, enormous web sites such as social networks, community and business web portals or famous web shops with thousands of clients need a much more powerful hosting platform. It appears that the blokes from 'Exclusive Hosting' have come to the same conclusion as well. To satisfy its customers' expectations, 'Exclusive Hosting' offers an array of dedicated servers that can tackle millions of daily hits. That estimate is based on the hardware specifications the servers have: multi-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of disk storage and Gigabit network interface cards will definitely guarantee the fast and steady performance of any kind of website. In 'Exclusive Hosting's opinion, the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more resource-requiring web sites. We, from imageproweb.com, deem that all dedicated server plans offered by 'Exclusive Hosting' are also suitable for initiating a hosting reseller business as each and every dedicated web server ships with free invoicing transaction software and a charge-free domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated web servers furnished by 'Exclusive Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at imageproweb.com, think that this is a small weak point, which can be rectified by paying a monthly tax of $32.00 USD. So, if you are in need of aid, the Managed Services upgrade offers a few extra services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated web server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. A selection of web hosting Control Panel (CP) user interfaces are available with each of the dedicated web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (imageproweb.com's) prognosis is that the exceptional point-and-click File Manager included in the Hepsia Control Panel will probably render the recourse to any FTP client futile. Our (imageproweb.com's) inference is that the dedicated servers offered by 'Exclusive Hosting' don't seem to be very affordably priced (still the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain allowance will beyond doubt make you smile), commencing from $40.00 for the A1 HDD package.
