We sell a lot of shared web hosting to customers around the world. In fact, shared web hosting is our top seller. One of the most frequently asked questions is “Which shared hosting package is right for me?” That’s a great question so I would like to answer that in today’s blog post. We offer two types of shared web hosting packages: Basic Shared Web Hosting and Semi-Dedicated Shared Web Hosting. Each one is configured with specific options and pricing based on what customers typically need and use with their shared web hosting account.
Understanding server loading and how many accounts are on your server
Before we get into the specifics of each MonsterMegs shared web hosting package, first you need to understand that each type of shared web hosting service is hosted on a server with other web hosting accounts. But one unique aspect to our shared web hosting services is that each type of shared web hosting package is hosted on servers that are limited to the number of hosting accounts we’ll host on them. The fewer the hosting accounts on a server, the more performance, security, and reliability you get with that particular server. On the other hand, the more hosting accounts we host on a server, you may experience a decrease in performance, security, and reliability.
Now don’t get me wrong, MonsterMegs servers are still high performance, very secure, and extremely reliable. However, regardless of how well our servers are designed and configured, the more accounts we host on a server, the more that particular server’s performance will be affected. Essentially, you are sharing the server’s resources with other shared web hosting accounts. So the fewer hosting accounts you have to share with on a server, the more server resources your website has access to at any time, thereby increasing your website’s performance.

If you are starting a new web site or already have an existing web site, picking the right web hosting is crucial to the success of your web site. If you choose the wrong hosting type for your web site you could lose valuable web traffic/orders due to downtimes, suspensions for resource abuse, etc. In this article I will go over the different types of web hosting out there and which is best for you.
Free Web Hosting
Free Web Hosting is great for the obvious reason. If you are just getting started and need practice building web sites then you will want to find a good free web hosting provider. Theres no sense in wasting money on a paid service if all you want to do is practice your skills. After you have learned how to manage a web site then you might want to think about going to a paid host. If your web site is a small site and don’t mind the adverts the host will place on your site than by all means go with the free web hosting providers. For the most part a free web host won’t provide support for their services(some do), might not be as reliable, and won’t have as many bells and whistles added to the service as a paid hosting provider will
Paid hosting: Shared, virtual, multi user plans
Shared/virtual web hosting is great for most of the web sites out there. If you have a small to medium size web site and traffic you will want to go with a paid shared web hosting provider. Paid providers will usually be able to host multiple domain names on a single account and will provide more than enough resources for most sites out there. With a paid host your will receive better support and a more reliable service. You will want to go with a paid host if you plan to make money on your web site. Remember that downtime costs you money – lost sales, lost ad revenue. So make sure you find a host with an uptime guarantee.
