A review of Egavas Hosting

We, at davidracc.com, have selected 'Egavas Hosting' to be our present domain name and hosting provider. Therefore we anticipate that this succinct assessment of 'Egavas Hosting' is perchance going to be quite useful for other individuals from all around the World in search for domain name and web hosting services. We state people from all over the World, because the mere fact is that 'Egavas Hosting' presently furnishes domain and hosting services in several data center facility locations: in the US (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, covering almost the entire Globe. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'Egavas Hosting' in a few words:

Shared Web Page Hosting Accounts

The first detail we, at davidracc.com, have observed is the cut-rate prices of the shared web space hosting services offered by 'Egavas Hosting'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the web space hosting accounts delivered by 'Egavas Hosting' are powered by an in-house developed, innovative cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as mail, databases, web space hosting Control Panel, web space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being run on a separate host of web hosting servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting corporation in the World will have great difficulties with, since cPanel is a one-server based webspace hosting environment (each web hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, web hosting Control Panel, data storage, DNS, statistics, etc., is being dealt with by one and the same hosting server), cPanel is not open source (that is why the cPanel web page hosting suppliers are not able to include new functionality and manipulate it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they must design their own file system), which is the foundation of any cloud web hosting service. Let's get back to the shared website hosting plans, which are powered by a real cloud web hosting platform. With a shared website hosting package, each client pays only for his/her plan, thus maintaining the web space hosting price amazingly low (since numerous users utilize one and the same hosting server). In a nutshell, a shared hosting account, which runs on a cloud web site hosting solution, allows you to pay just for the reserves that you indeed require, evading a scenario where you pay for an advanced website hosting package that you cannot truly utilize, or for a basic web site hosting plan that cannot handle your web page. The option to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only 2 clicks gives you the flexibility to start with a basic package and upgrade as your online presence grows. Hence, you save money that you can expend on advertising the site while it is still brand new. Each and every web space hosting account provided by 'Egavas Hosting' includes an online site building tool and over forty widely used script-driven software platforms among them WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you hundreds of dollars for web design solutions. 'Egavas Hosting' delivers shared web page hosting accounts in several different regions around the World. There is one data center in Chicago encompassing the USA and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in England and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. Hence, virtually the entire Earth is encompassed to provide you and your website's visitors with a stable and dependable site hosting service at a desired location. Altogether, the shared hosting services provided 'Egavas Hosting' are quite well stocked and are available at a very low price (beginning from $4.42 for the Student package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To people with little to no practice, a private virtual web server may seem complicated to manage. That's perhaps why 'Egavas Hosting' also houses semi-dedicated web servers in its main US datacenter in Chicago. Managing these packages is comparable to managing a normal shared web site hosting plan via a web site hosting Control Panel user interface. They have all the functionalities of a shared package such as a free website building tool and a PHP script installation tool, but the amount of system resources offered by a semi-dedicated server web hosting plan is many times greater than that of a shared web page hosting plan. For example, the CPU power that can be utilized is about 5 times as much as compared to the shared accounts. When compared with a shared plan, the quota of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting packages is enormous: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted TLD allowance is a rule too. The semi-dedicated hosting server packages do not include full root-level access (we, at davidracc.com, consider this a small downside), but the advantage is that they are managed via the same CP interface as the shared webspace hosting accounts. This goes to say that a familiar graphical user interface is available to all customers who do not have enough self-condifence to administer a private virtual web server, yet require more power and resources than a private virtual web server can give them. This is like that due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the resources of the very same powerful first-class web hosting servers as the ones which host the private virtual hosting server packages, however, the number of the semi-dedicated web servers is quite low (somewhere between 20 to 30 per server), whereas the private virtual servers can reach a much bigger number (eighty to a hundred and twenty per physical machine). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers provided by 'Egavas Hosting' can be classified as being very inexpensive (as far as price is concerned), commencing from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Web Servers

In davidracc.com's opinion, huge web sites such as social networks, community and business web portals or famous web shops with thousands of customers demand a much more powerful web page hosting solution. It seems that the chaps from 'Egavas Hosting' have reached the same conclusion as well. To answer its customers' requirements, 'Egavas Hosting' delivers a number of dedicated web hosting servers that can tackle millions of daily visits. That estimation stands on the hardware specifications the hosting servers are offering: many-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, 2000 gigabytes of data storage and Gigabit NICs will doubtlessly ensure the quick and stable work of any sort of website. In 'Egavas Hosting's opinion, the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more resource-requiring websites. We, from davidracc.com, deem that all dedicated server packages furnished by 'Egavas Hosting' are also suitable for beginning a hosting reseller business as each server comes with free-of-charge billing transaction software and a bonus domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated web hosting servers offered by 'Egavas Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at davidracc.com, deem this a minor drawback, which can be adjusted by paying a monthly fee which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you demand aid, the Managed Services upgrade provides an assortment of supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, web hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. An array of web space hosting CP (CP) interfaces are available with each of the servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (davidracc.com's) prediction is that the outstanding drag and drop File Manager offered by the Hepsia web page hosting CP will perhaps render the use of any File Transfer Protocol software pointless. Our (davidracc.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers delivered by 'Egavas Hosting' don't seem to be very modestly priced (still the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and the unmetered hosted domain quotas will beyond doubt make you smile), commencing from $60.00 for the Xeon E3 v3 plan.
