A survey of NTC Hosting

We, at propertydisasterrestoration.com, have chosen 'NTC Hosting' to be our current domain and web hosting provider. Therefore we anticipate that this concise assessment of 'NTC Hosting' is probably going to be quite useful for other people from all around the Globe who are searching for domain name and web hosting solutions. We state folks from all over the Globe, since the simple truth is that 'NTC Hosting' currently provides domain and hosting services in several data center locations: in the US (Chicago, IL), in England (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, embracing practically the whole Earth. At least from the point of view of the Internet. So, here is what you could expect from 'NTC Hosting' in short:

Shared Web Site Hosting Solutions

The initial thing we, at propertydisasterrestoration.com, have seen is the affordable prices of the shared web hosting services furnished by 'NTC Hosting'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared hosting. The good news here is that the site hosting plans provided by 'NTC Hosting' are driven by a custom developed, modern cloud web hosting solution (each web hosting service, like mail, databases, web hosting CP, storage space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being handled by an individual pack of hosting servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting vendor in the World will have colossal complications with, because cPanel is a single server based hosting environment (each web hosting service, such as mail, databases, web page hosting Control Panel, data storage, DNS, stats, etc., is being run on one and the same server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel-based web hosting distributors are not able to add extra functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file system (they need to devise their own file platform), which is the precondition of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared web space hosting plans, which are driven by an actual cloud hosting solution. With a shared web page hosting account, each customer pays solely for his/her package, thus retaining the web site hosting price very low (since numerous clients use one and the same hosting server). To cut a long story short, a shared hosting plan, which is hosted on a clustered site hosting solution, permits you to pay only for the resources that you really require, averting a scenario where you pay for an advanced web page hosting plan that you cannot actually utilize, or for a basic website hosting account that cannot shelter your web site. The possibility to upgrade your account from one package to another with only two clicks of the mouse grants you the flexibility to kick off with a low-end package and upgrade as your web site grows. In this way, you economize funds that you can invest in publicizing the website while it is still new. Every web space hosting plan furnished by 'NTC Hosting' comprises an online site builder and over forty popular script-driven software applications including WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you hundreds of dollars for website design solutions. 'NTC Hosting' furnishes shared hosting services in several different geographical regions across the World. There is one server farm in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; 2 European server farms - in the United Kingdom and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. That way, almost the whole World is encompassed to provide you and your website's visitors with a steady and fast web hosting solution at a convenient location. Altogether, the shared hosting services furnished 'NTC Hosting' are very well furnished and are available at a low-cost price (beginning from $5.25 for the Budget plan).

Semi-dedicated Web Hosting Servers

To clients with little or no practice, a private virtual hosting server may seem hard to administer. That's perhaps why 'NTC Hosting' also houses semi-dedicated web hosting servers in its principal American datacenter facility in Chicago. Managing these packages is similar to managing a typical shared site hosting plan through a webspace hosting CP GUI. They have all the features of a shared web hosting plan such as a fee-free website building tool and a web application installer, but the system resource quota provided by a semi-dedicated web hosting package is many times greater than that of a shared web space hosting plan. For example, the CPU power that can be used is almost 5 times as much as compared with the shared site hosting accounts. When compared with a shared website hosting account, the number of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is huge: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted top-level domain name allowance is a standard too. The semi-dedicated web hosting plans do not come with full server root privileges (we, at propertydisasterrestoration.com, think that this is a little weakness), but the plus is that they are managed via the same CP interface as the shared hosting packages. This hints that a well-known GUI is available to all clients who do not have enough confidence to manage a VPS web hosting server, but at the same time demand more power and system resources than a VPS hosting server can bestow on them. This is like that because of the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the reserves of the very same powerful first-rate hosting servers as the ones which host the virtual hosting server plans, still, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is quite small (somewhere between twenty to thirty per physical server), while the virtual hosting servers can reach a much higher number (eighty to 120 per physical server). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers provided by 'NTC Hosting' can be categorized as being quite inexpensive (as far as price is concerned), beginning from $35.95 for the Pioneer plan.

Dedicated Web Servers

In propertydisasterrestoration.com's opinion, enormous sites such as social networks, community and business web portals or famous web stores with 1000s of customers need a much more powerful webspace hosting environment. It appears that the folks from 'NTC Hosting' have arrived at the same conclusion as well. To answer its clients' expectations, 'NTC Hosting' delivers a selection of dedicated hosting servers that can handle millions of daily hits. That estimation stands on the hardware configurations the dedicated web servers boast: multi-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, 2000 GB of disk storage and Gigabit network interface cards will doubtlessly guarantee the fast and steady work of any sort of website. In 'NTC Hosting's opinion, the primary hardware configurations can be upgraded for more resource-demanding websites. We, from propertydisasterrestoration.com, believe that all dedicated server specifications delivered by 'NTC Hosting' are also suitable for beginning a hosting reseller business as each hosting server arrives with free invoicing software and a cost-free domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated web servers provided by 'NTC Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at propertydisasterrestoration.com, count this as a minor weakness, which can be corrected by paying a monthly fee of $32.00 USD. So, if you are in need of aid, the Managed Services upgrade includes several supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. Several hosting CP (CP) GUIs are available with each of the dedicated hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (propertydisasterrestoration.com's) forecast is that the great drag-and-drop File Manager included in the Hepsia webspace hosting Control Panel will possibly render the utilization of any FTP software futile. Our (propertydisasterrestoration.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers offered by 'NTC Hosting' don't seem to be very modestly priced (still the Hepsia site hosting Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain allowance will undoubtedly make you smile), commencing from $95.00 for the Diamond 1 plan.
