Choosing web hosting
To have a hosting quality is essential for the smooth running of the website.
The main points to remember when hosting a recruit wants are:
1. Diskspace
2. Transfer
3. Multidomain
4. E-mail accounts
5. Available Resources
1. Diskspace:
Disk space is the “piece” of hard disk you have available for upload. There are many hosting companies that this value is included in the space occupied by the log files (which are the entrances to the site) and mail.
Sometimes it falls into the error of considering the space of the most important features of a hosting, but it is not so, because we must take into account many more factors, such as the transfer. What helps us to have a great site if we realize that we are not going to be able to serve information to users because we do not have a transfer capacity sufficient?
2. Transfer:
The transfer is the amount of traffic you can handle your site. It is one of the most important factors in hiring a hosting. We must calculate very well what the current requirements of our website and what needs to be given a few months.
To make a calculation of the capacity that we may need your site using the following formula:
Num pageviews / month Average size page = transfer / month
Using this simple formula, we can make an estimate of the monthly transfer that has the site, and therefore adjust the recruitment of women to real needs. I recommend you always take into account the outcome of the high, ie, worth more than the transfer capacity of not missing, therefore, be generous.
Normally leave hostings expand capacity smoothly, however, prices tend to be quite abusive, so I make a good initial estimate and leave a good margin for the site can grow without having to preocuparos of the transfer.
3. Multidomain:
When we speak of a multidomain hosting, we mean that we can accommodate more than one domain with the same plan contract, which saves us hiring a new plan for each of the sites you want to mount. .
Plans “reseller” (multidomain) are very useful, since it gives a great flexibility in mounting another website, and usually come out much more advantageous to hire a different plan for each of the sites.
4. E-mail accounts:
This is another very important feature to consider. If you ride a site for a company with multiple clients, you’ll be asked to have several email accounts at your disposal, and therefore you should have hosting that you included in the plan contrateis.
Usually the most basic plans and therefore lower cost, put a few mail accounts available to customers, so we can find that is a critical factor given the requirements of a site.
5. Resources available:
In this section we will include the resources that are most often sued a hosting.
PHP: To implement a dynamic web page must use one of the languages available on the market, these include PHP, ASP and JSP and others.
ASP is a software license, which is hosting at a cost of course and will reflect the users who take the plan, so it is difficult to find hostings “cheap” we offer this language. JSP not licensed, but the architecture that is associated with it (to run sites implemented using JSP) is quite complicated to keep shared servers, therefore it will not be available for most hostings. Finally, PHP is a language without a license (not entail any cost to the hosting), as well as being supported by an architecture easy to maintain (usually Apache, also open source), for these reasons and because of strong demand is having at the moment, is the language that we will provide most of the hostings.
MySQL: MySQL is a database manager SQL, open source and therefore free. Year over year gains in strength and stability, which has led it to be one of the management systems used in the world. In the market we can find other systems such as Oracle or Postgres, but the use of Oracle is subject to license and therefore is not usually found on most hostings. Postgres is starting to get enough strength, which will soon begin to see it in most plans.
Broadly, these are the properties that we must take greater account when hosting a recruit. Above all, I would advise doing a thorough analysis of the requirements of the website so that when making the decision has as much information as possible.
