This DreamHost review will focus primarily on what DreamHost does right. Their main selling point is the low price for the high quantity of features. The surprising thing is that the price is actually quite a bit higher than competitors are, but people still sign up with DreamHost. They also do automatic backups.

How Does Cloud Hosting Work?

Friday, April 22, 2011 Posted by admin

By utilizing cloud hosting, you are taking advantage of an interrelated system of servers that work together to enhance the capabilities of all of them. Providing you with the speed, dependability, memory and the power that is needed to get your pages up and keep them running the way that they should.  By grouping the servers, or clouds, together in a massive, non-physically centered area, you can have the functionality of all of their combined processing abilities. At the same time, the security of knowing that if one of them drops off line, the others will be there to take up any slack that there is.

The costs of having a virtual sky full of clouds are very minimal because, just like the utility companies, they only charge you for the computing resources that you use.  This may be a small amount for normal everyday use and it might spike when there is a spike in use such as a major run on your web site.

Downsides to Free WP Themes

Wednesday, March 30, 2011 Posted by admin

There are disadvantages to opting to take free WP themes rather than spending money on one. The first is that you are putting your website at risk. There are no guarantees that something will work for you or that all of the plug-ins and widgets are exactly what your business will need; they may hinder your chances of growing your business.

Another problem is that there will be many people that use the same theme. Hundreds of users will have the same layout and ideas but will just have different words and colors. Your website will not look unique and this could prevent you from growing. You will confuse others if you have a business website that looks similar to someone else’s.

However, customizing one small part of your website could take hours and will cost a lot of money. However, this will be something that you need to do if you want to set yourself and your business apart from everybody else.

Shared Hosting Is Not VPS Hosting

Saturday, March 19, 2011 Posted by admin

When you have a shared hosting account, there might be hundreds of users sharing this server with you.  There might be only one of those users that will do something with a complicated application or script and the entire server could go down.  You are stuck with that problem for as long as it takes to get it back up.

How long might that take?  It could be several minutes or it might take several hours depending on what happened, how much re-booting it is going to take and when it happened.  That is a long time when you have costly web pages sitting out there not making you any money and not capturing any e-mails that you need.  Those would-be visitors will go away, many of them not coming back.

A shared hosting situation is one that many people use because maybe they don’t know that there is a better way, such as VPS hosting.  Many of their favorite hosting companies don’t tell them about it or they don’t look at the web sites and find out.
