Categories of hosting services

A hosting service involves stockpiling and/or sharing certain web content on a server handled by a hosting company. There are various sorts of hosting services utilized for various goals, so let's have a gaze at them. In this way, you can pick what you need, based on whether you wish to launch a web page, email addresses, or to share files with pals and acquaintances.

- File hosting: a service supplied by certain companies, which allows you to share enormous files. These could be disk images, films, audio files, archives, and so on. This service is also known as file storage, and its single aim is to share files, since it does not support website uploading. The moment the files are uploaded, you will either receive a randomly created download link for each of them, or you will be able to explore a list of all the files in a directory, but you will be unable to open .html or .php web site files in your web browser. Free-of-charge file storage solutions are frequently supported by displaying adverts next to the download links, while a timer compels you to await a specific span of time to see them. A given file can be downloaded with limited speed. If you purchase a paid file storage plan, there are no restrictions as to how many files you can upload/download straight away, and also there is no restriction in regard to the download speed or the file size.

Nowadays, with the assistance of the cPanel hosting merchants, "file hosting" is being renamed to the more faddish "cloud hosting". This is a completely improper interpretation of the real denotation of "cloud hosting". An actual cloud website hosting environment would allot the load between separate packs of servers in a cluster, which are committed to attending miscellaneous web space hosting services (mail, disk space, stats, DNS, databases, web page hosting Control Panel, and so on.) So, the file hosting solution is just a kind of a disk space hosting solution, not a cloud hosting one. It's not even near.

- Image hosting: resembling file hosting; some vendors offer a hosting solution for images exclusively. This hosting kind is appropriate if you would like to share a huge number of images with buddies or acquaintances since the service is generally free of charge. You will receive a randomly generated link for each picture or album and you can subsequently share this link. As with the file storage solution, .html and .php files are not compatible, so the service cannot be used for web sites.

- E-mail hosting: a solution devoted to managing your email aliases. Some suppliers offer web hosting solutions for web sites, but do not provide an email service. If you would like to launch an email address with your domain name but do not want to keep a web site, then the email hosting service is what you require. You can set up electronic mail accounts and manage them, but there will be no hosting service for the domains. The e-mail hosting service includes incoming POP/IMAP and outgoing SMTP e-mail servers.

- Video hosting: this service permits you to upload and share video clips. You can either share a link to a specific video file, or you can embed the video in your web page that is hosted somewhere else. The advantage of using this method in lieu of uploading the video clip in a web hosting account is that the video brings about a particular amount of CPU load, so with several video files and a few hundred viewers, you may have a problem with your site hosting quotas. Embedding the video clip will permit you to utilize as many videos as you desire without hassling about system reserves.

- Web site hosting: this is the service that you need if you wish to own a website. To a certain extent, it contains all of the abovementioned hosting variants since, along with your web pages, you can also host pictures and files, you can run databases and e-mail address accounts, upload videos, and so on. At Exclusive Hosting, for example, you can take a gaze at web hosting and dedicated web hosting packages that enable you to have all of the aforesaid services in one single place. There may be limitations depending on the sort of hosting solution that you've settled on - a free hosting plan, a paid shared hosting account, a VPS or a dedicated server. Depending on that, your web space hosting plan may be better or worse compared to the common e-mail/file/video/image hosting accounts that are tailored for specific content only.
