Unlimited domain hosting and its Benefits

Posted by Altax on July 31st, 2010

In modern world, web servers can serve up unlimited bandwidth. These servers have hard drives with the size of credit cards that can hold hundreds of gigabytes of information. There is no need to pay huge amount for hosting anymore.  It depends on the type of website(s) you have,  both personal or business website. A business website needs more services than a personal website.

There are many benefits associated with having completely unlimited domain hosting. You will be able to transfer as much data as you want on a constant basis without having to worry about any limits or going over your allotted amount.

Just because a host offers these unlimited services, it doesn’t always mean that they are good. For a business website you need to factor in connecting speed, upgrades, bandwidth capacity, and how much traffic  your site can handle.

The cost and the bandwidth between web hosts that offer hosting for just one domain name are becoming minor in the very competitive web hosting business. But a hosting company that will permit you to host unlimited domains on your account can give you powerful flexibility in growing your internet business, and the ability to slash your average hosting costs per website.

You could register multiple domain names, either domain forwarding it to existing website or park it for cash, or you can host it as individual site. Get yourself a unlimited domain hosting plan from us and host all your domain name in one web hosting.

VPS vs Dedicated Servers

Posted by Geetha on July 31st, 2010

VPS(Virtual Private Servers) and Dedicated are two very different environments due to how the process and specs are setup.

The difference between vps and dedicated hosting is that with dedicated you are the only person with files on the server. Wherein, VPS is a virtualization environment where everyone gets root access inside a virtual machine, but there are multiple people with these access on one given physical server. VPS are a little harder to get one’s head around than dedicated servers. They are usually cheaper but their maintenance is still more expensive. You will also have Root/Administrator access with the VPS which is provided with a Dedicated server and as Root/Administration is provided with it, you can install any applications you require on your VPS also. One of the major attractions of a dedicated server is that, it is generally completely under the control of the customer.

Large businesses and those with intensive hosting needs, such as gaming sites, use Dedicated Servers. VPS is used by customers who want to have the same features like a Dedicated server but do not have the usage according to a Dedicated server.

So, If you wish to have features like a Dedicated server but do not require the resources assigned to it, then you can surely consider a VPS hosting. If you are comfortable managing your sites in a VPS as root, then it won’t be any more difficult to manage them on a dedicated server.

Cheap Domain Transfer

Posted by Priya on July 30th, 2010

Domain names are basically used in URLs to identify particular web pages.  A domain transfer is simply to transfer a domain name from one domain name registrar to another.  If you want to renew your domain name without paying more or if you are not satisfied with the service of present web host , then transfering your domain name is the best way.  If you are paying too much for your current web host and want to switch to another,  just transfer your domain name to a cheap and reliable web host.

The overwhelming fact is that , as per google algorithm,  you dont lose domain age by changing to a new domain registrar.  When you transfer to some registrars, they will apply their default nameserver settings as soon as a domain is transferred to them.

In order to transfer your domain name,  you need to provide the  domain transfer authentication code. This code act as a transfer secret which is offered by all of the domain registrars at the time of domain registration. It  is used as a protection mechanism, to ensure that only the rightful domain owner can control the transfer of the domain registration.

SFTP vs FTP

Posted by Gretish on July 28th, 2010

As we all know that we can FTP a file onto the server using tools like Filezilla and WinSCP. Moreover both these tools have same features and reasonably same price. File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol is the easiest way to exchange files from one host to another using TCP/IP based network. You can use FTP with a simple command line interface or with a commercial program. The main advantage of FTP is it is easily accessible, inexpensive and it is very easy to use.

Primary disadvantage of FTP especially in the current compliance environment is the it lacks in security reasons. Whenever an user opens a FTP session the entire transmission between the host and the user is made in plain text. So using packet sniffing technology anyone can capture the sensitive data such as username and password. This allows the malicious intruder to compromise the system easily.

SFTP is a secure form of FTP. SSH file transfer protocol or SFTP is a network protocol that provides file transfer and manipulation. When using SSH’s SFTP instead of FTP, the entire login session including transmission of username and password is encrypted. Hence it is not possible for the intruder to hack the password from the system that uses SSH/SFTP session.

Connecting the server through SFTP is relatively same as that of standard FTP. The only difference is that in SFTP you instruct your FTP client to connect to your SSH port rather than the FTP port. In many cases FTP defaults to port 21 while SFTP defaults to Port 22. Suppose if your FTP client doesn’t allow to custom port numbers, you can connect it through sftp://hioxindia.com where hioxindia.com is the address you need to access.

WinSCP and Filezilla are the most popular tools that support SFTP. There may be hundred of other tools that support this but the above mentioned two are highly recommended. Probably a question arises in every one’s mind that “Which web hosts supports this SFTP? Any hosts that offers SSH to its customers also offers this SFTP as this two seem to go hand-in-hand. If web host offers SSH, it’s definitely worth at least trying to connect to your server through SFTP when uploading and downloading files.
