An assessment of webgeardefault

We, at norchem.com.mt, have selected 'webgeardefault' to be our current domain name and web hosting provider. Therefore we believe that this succinct review of 'webgeardefault' is perhaps going to be very useful for other people from all around the World who need domain name and web hosting solutions. We say people from all around the World, since the simple truth is that 'webgeardefault' currently provides domain and hosting services in numerous server farm locations: in the United States of America (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, covering nearly the whole World. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'webgeardefault' in short:

Shared Web Space Hosting Accounts

The first thing we, at norchem.com.mt, have observed is the modest prices of the shared web hosting services provided by 'webgeardefault'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared web hosting. The good news here is that the webspace hosting accounts provided by 'webgeardefault' are powered by an in-house built, leading edge cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, site hosting Control Panel, data storage, DNS, stats, and so on, runs on an independent set of web hosting servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting provider in the World will have huge problems with, since cPanel is a one single server based web hosting environment (each web hosting service, like mail, databases, site hosting Control Panel, data storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being run on one single web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel web site hosting companies are unable to include additional functionality and handle it the way they want it) and there is no open source file platform (they have to build their own file system), which is the prerequisite of any cloud web hosting service. Let's return to the shared hosting packages, which are powered by a genuine cloud web site hosting system. With a shared site hosting account, each customer pays only for his/her plan, thus preserving the price amazingly low (since a lot of customers use the same web server). In brief, a shared hosting plan, which is hosted on a cloud web page hosting solution, permits you to pay only for the reserves that you really require, refraining from a situation where you pay for an advanced hosting plan that you cannot actually utilize, or for a small web space hosting account that cannot handle your web page. The possibility to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only 2 mouse clicks gives you the flexibility to kick off with a small package and upgrade as your site expands. So, you save capital that you can invest in publicizing the site while it is still brand new. Each website hosting package furnished by 'webgeardefault' arrives with an online site builder and over forty widely used script platforms like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you hundreds of dollars for web page design solutions. 'webgeardefault' distributes shared web page hosting solutions in several different geographical regions across the Globe. There is one server farm facility in Chicago covering the US and Canada; two European datacenter facilities - in England and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. That way, practically the whole Globe is covered to provide you and your visitors with a stable and dependable web page hosting solution at a preferred place. All in all, the shared hosting services offered 'webgeardefault' are really well furnished and come at a low-cost price (beginning from €6.88 for the Economy package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To customers with little to no experience, a virtual private web server may seem difficult to handle. That's probably why 'webgeardefault' also keeps semi-dedicated hosting servers in its principal North American data center facility in Chicago. Managing these accounts is similar to handling a typical shared web page hosting package through a web page hosting CP interface. They have all the features of a shared hosting plan such as a fee-free site building tool and a web app installer, but the system resource quota typical of a semi-dedicated web server hosting plan is many times bigger than that of a shared plan. For example, the central processing unit power that can be used is approximately FIVE times as much as compared to the shared web site hosting accounts. When compared to a shared web hosting account, the quota of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting plans is huge: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted Top-Level Domain allowance is a trend too. The semi-dedicated server web hosting accounts do not arrive with root access (we, at norchem.com.mt, think that this is a little defect), but the good point is that they are managed via the very same web site hosting CP GUI as the shared web page hosting plans. This indicates that a known GUI is offered to all users who do not have enough self-condifence to handle a VPS hosting server, yet demand more power and resources than a VPS web hosting server can supply them with. This is so due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web servers share the system resources of the same powerful high-end hosting servers as the ones which accommodate the virtual private web server hosting packages, still, the number of the semi-dedicated hosting servers is quite low (somewhere between 20 to thirty per server), whereas the VPS servers can reach a much bigger number (eighty to one hundred and twenty per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers furnished by 'webgeardefault' can be categorized as being quite inexpensive (as far as cost is concerned), beginning from €47.19 for the Semi Pro plan.

Dedicated Web Servers

In norchem.com.mt's opinion, large web sites such as social networks, community and business portals or popular web shops with 1000s of customers need a much more powerful web site hosting platform. It appears that the fellows from 'webgeardefault' have reached the same conclusion as well. To answer its clients' expectations, 'webgeardefault' offers a selection of dedicated servers that can tackle millions of daily visits. That estimation stands on the hardware configurations the dedicated servers come with: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to 4 gigabytes of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of web space and Gigabit NICs will definitely guarantee the quick and stable work of any kind of web site. In 'webgeardefault's opinion, the primary hardware specs can be upgraded for more resource-requiring websites. We, from norchem.com.mt, think that all dedicated server solutions furnished by 'webgeardefault' are also suitable for starting a hosting reseller business as each and every dedicated server arrives with free invoice transaction software platform and a charge-free domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated web hosting servers supplied by 'webgeardefault' are all unmanaged. We, at norchem.com.mt, deem this a small defect, which can be rectified by paying a monthly tax which amounts to €41.20 EUR. So, if you are in need of backing, the Managed Services upgrade offers a selection of extra services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated web server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. A bunch of webspace hosting Control Panel (CP) tools are offered with each of the dedicated web servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (norchem.com.mt's) forecast is that the exceptional drag-and-drop File Manager available in the Hepsia webspace hosting Control Panel will possibly render the recourse to any FTP software program futile. Our (norchem.com.mt's) inference is that the dedicated servers supplied by 'webgeardefault' don't seem to be very modestly priced (yet the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain name allowance will definitely make you smile), starting from €151.06 for the Xeon Scalable 6c package.
