An evaluation of WebHostNinja

We, at generalmail.co.za, have selected 'WebHostNinja' to be our current domain and hosting supplier. Therefore we imagine that this concise evaluation of 'WebHostNinja' is probably going to be quite helpful for other individuals from all around the Globe who need domain name and web hosting services. We state individuals from all around the Globe, since the simple truth is that 'WebHostNinja' presently distributes domain and hosting services in multiple datacenter facility sites: in the United States of America (Chicago, IL), in the UK (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, covering almost the whole Globe. At least from the point of view of the Internet. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'WebHostNinja' in a few words:

Shared Web Site Hosting Solutions

The first thing we, at generalmail.co.za, have detected is the cut-rate prices of the shared webspace hosting plans furnished by 'WebHostNinja'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared hosting. The good thing here is that the site hosting accounts furnished by 'WebHostNinja' are powered by a custom developed, avant-garde cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as mail, databases, web hosting Control Panel, disk storage, DNS, stats, etc., is being run on a different stack of servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting supplier on the Globe will have colossal problems with, because cPanel is a one single server based web space hosting environment (each hosting service, such as mail, databases, CP, web space, DNS, stats, etc., is being run on a single web server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel website hosting vendors are unable to add new functionality and handle it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they need to create their own file platform), which is at the bottom of any cloud web hosting service. Let's return to the shared website hosting plans, which are driven by a real cloud website hosting solution. With a shared web page hosting account, each client pays solely for his/her account, thus preserving the site hosting price very low (since multiple customers are located on the same web server). In a nutshell, a shared hosting package, which runs on a clustered site hosting solution, enables you to pay only for the reserves that you actually demand, refraining from a situation where you pay for a feature-rich web site hosting plan that you cannot actually utilize, or for a tiny hosting plan that cannot accommodate your web page. The option to upgrade your account from one plan to another with just two clicks gives you the flexibility to begin with a tiny plan and upgrade as your web presence expands. Hence, you economize cash that you can expend on advertising the web page while it is still new. Each and every web space hosting account supplied by 'WebHostNinja' offers an online website builder and over 40 widely used script software applications like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you hundreds of dollars for site design services. 'WebHostNinja' offers shared web hosting plans in a number of different regions around the Globe. There is one data center in Chicago encompassing the United States of America and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in Great Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific region. That way, virtually the entire planet is covered to provide you and your site's visitors with a steady and fast web page hosting solution at a preferred location. On the whole, the shared hosting services supplied 'WebHostNinja' are quite well appointed and are available at a good price (starting from $4.24 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Web Hosting Servers

To clients with little or no practice, a virtual private web hosting server may appear tough to handle. That's perhaps why 'WebHostNinja' also offers semi-dedicated web servers in its main United States server farm facility in Chicago. Handling these accounts is comparable to managing a conventional shared web page hosting package through a web page hosting Control Panel GUI. They have all the specs of a shared site hosting plan such as a free-of-charge web site building tool and a web app installation tool, but the amount of system resources provided by a semi-dedicated web hosting server plan is many times larger than that of a shared web site hosting plan. For instance, the central processing unit power that can be used is approximately 5 times as much as compared to the shared web hosting plans. When compared with a shared web page hosting plan, the number of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting plans is huge: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted top-level domain name quota is a rule too. The semi-dedicated web hosting packages do not include full server root access (we, at generalmail.co.za, count this as a tiny disadvantage), but the plus is that they are managed through the same Control Panel GUI as the shared site hosting packages. This means that a well-known graphical environment is offered to all clients who are not self-confident enough to manage a virtual server, but at the same time demand more power and supplies than a private virtual hosting server can furnish them with. This is so because of the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the system resources of the same powerful top-class web hosting servers as the ones which host the Virtual Private Server web hosting packages, still, the number of the semi-dedicated hosting servers is very low (somewhere between 20 to 30 per server), while the private virtual hosting servers can reach a much greater number (80 to 120 per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers supplied by 'WebHostNinja' can be defined as being very inexpensive (as far as cost is concerned), starting from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 package.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

According to generalmail.co.za, large web pages such as social networks, community and corporate web portals or famous web shops with 1000s of customers request a much more powerful hosting environment. It seems that the chaps from 'WebHostNinja' have arrived at the same conclusion as well. To satisfy its clients' needs, 'WebHostNinja' delivers a number of dedicated web servers that can handle millions of daily visits. That estimation rests on the hardware specifications the hosting servers ship with: many-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, 2000 gigabytes of web space and Gigabit network interface cards will beyond doubt guarantee the fast and steady performance of any type of site. In 'WebHostNinja's opinion, the primary hardware specs can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring websites. We, from generalmail.co.za, believe that all dedicated server accounts offered by 'WebHostNinja' are also appropriate for setting up a hosting reseller business as each web hosting server ships with free-of-cost invoicing transaction software platform and a free-of-cost domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated web hosting servers furnished by 'WebHostNinja' are all unmanaged. We, at generalmail.co.za, think of this as a slight weak point, which can be amended by paying a monthly fee of $32.00 USD. So, if you need support, the Managed Services upgrade offers a handful of additional services such as a regular backup, software installation, hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting procedures. A bouquet of web page hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are available with each of the hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (generalmail.co.za's) forecast is that the excellent point-and-click File Manager available in the Hepsia website hosting CP will possibly make the recourse to any FTP client useless. Our (generalmail.co.za's) inference is that the dedicated servers delivered by 'WebHostNinja' don't seem to be very inexpensive (still the Hepsia hosting CP and the unlimited hosted domain allowance will definitely make you smile), commencing from $60.00 for the Xeon E3 v3 package.
