How many websites are there per server on a shared hosting?

April 14, 2010 hosting shared 2 Comments

Does anybody know how many websites do hosting companies usually host per one server? (or the usual range?)

There can be just one, but I doubt it. I have seen HUNDREDS without any problem.

Web Page hosting help please?

http://uk.geocities.com/drfcskittlesteam@btinternet.com/index.htm is done by "FTP" upload via ms-frontpage. This is free via btinternet broadband.
All I need to know is?
Does this work the same on the pay webhosting with a ".com" or ".co.uk". Do you simply just up-load the same as I do now??

This is one I have been looking at! not the chepest I know.

The methods for uploading your work to a host server depend on that particular service.

Some of them allow FTP (which is fairly common). Some have server extensions that allow you to modify and edit directly. There are various other ways.

I have a bad habit of not clicking random links posted here, so I can’t verify which one the service you’re looking at uses. However, their sales/customer service area should be able to tell you. That’s why they are there.

How many web sites can be uploaded within a host server package?

March 23, 2010 123 hosting 5 Comments

Hi
I am about to subcribe to 123-reg buying a domain name and a internet hosting service. My question may seem rather basic but I’m afaid I need clarification if possible.
I intend to use my website for selling products such as e-books, CD’s etc. What I am unsure about is whether I can have several/many different websites within the one package supplied by the host server? In other words I anticipate selling a variety of products but the website supporting each one would need to be different ie promoting each individual product.
Also, has anyone else used 123-reg and would recommend them?

123-reg doesn’t seem to allow hosting of multiple websites/domains under the same account.

If you want to create multiple websites under the same account (at no additional price other than the domain name registration fee) I recommend one of these http://www.webhostingtable.com

Fatcow has the best offer among them.
Their standard price is $88/year
but they have the 50% sale right now.

Disk space: Unlimited
Bandwidth: Unlimited
A Free domain name
Unlimited domains and subdomains

Price: $44/year

They’re one of the oldest hosting companies, founded 1998, they’re also one of the largest, currently hosting about 500,000 websites.
Their hosting plan includes a web builder, so you can create your site just by drag and drop (without any programming), or you could install Wordpress (easy, one click install from their control panel), choose a theme that you like, and start adding content. Or you can install osCommerce and create an online store.

Do you need to host your ruby on rails application on the machine you developed it on?

I am a Mac OS X user, and develop with rails on it. I have a fedora box that i do my hosting on, and I’m wondering if there is a way I can move my app onto it to host. I couldn’t find anything on the web about it.

Since ruby is available on osx you should have no problems after installing the required libraries. you might want to install the latest version of apache 2, but the old version should be simple enough to configure for ruby… or any other language!

Apache & UNIX are all there for you on OS X.

Happy new year and good coding!

PS
I self host my dev server on os x and mainitain 100% compatibility with linux production servers.
