This is by far the most well-known and used form of website hosting. Shared Server Hosting, also referred to simply as web hosting, is by far the cheapest form of hosting which explains its popularity. In this type of hosting, numerous client accounts (messages and sites data) are saved on the same server where assets of said server are shared. This isn’t an ordinary computer, but a massive powerful computer that is programmed to handle hundreds of requests.
cPanel is a control panel. It is a leading web management dashboard that lets users manage their hosting accounts with ease. It allows you to oversee and control email accounts, domain extensions, and install new applications if required, like WordPress, Magento, Joomla etc. It gives you control over and to manage your entire web hosting account.
In Shared Hosting, as discussed before, the server's resources like (RAM, CPU, and so on) are shared by multiple clients.
In VPS Hosting (Virtual Private Server Hosting), your data is still hosted on a common server, but you are assigned a pre-defined amount of server resources exclusively, according to your VPS plan. Consider it like VIP access in a gathering. You show up for the same show, but you have privileged access and more resources. You will always have a dedicated amount of resources set aside to your account, so you’ll never be in competition for server resources.

With dedicated hosting, you're renting a physical high-performance server only for your organisation or site. Dedicated hosting executes operations significantly faster than shared hosting and VPS. Why? Well, the fact is you have exclusive access to an entire server. That is RAM, CPU, bandwidth, among other resources exclusively for you. If you have a demanding website and high-performance needs, dedicated servers have the capacity to effectively host your site.
Yes, in fact these all cater to different server requirements. Let’s examine Shared Hosting for example, it resembles a college dorm, – Many occupants in a single building, sharing similar resources, but it’s extremely cheap. Dedicated server hosting is like having a cutting-edge house, where you pay much more, and, you and only you have privileged access to its space and utilities. Finally, VPS is in the centre, where you have a couple of inhabitants in a similar building (server), however you each have devoted assets and are in full control of your home. It costs significantly less than a dedicated server, while giving similar dedicated resources as would a dedicated server.

A domain name is a custom web address that each website must have to go on the internet like www.yoursite.com. This is what users type into the search engine to find your address online. No two domain names can be the same, which means if there’s a specific one that you need and it’s available it’s best that you register it now. There are many diverse types of domain names extensions, .com being the most common. Take for example www.yoursite.com, .com is the TLD (Top Level Domain) extension. If a domain extension isn’t available, try another one. For example, if www.yoursite.com is taken, then, consider www.yoursite.net, www.yoursite.online, www.yoursite.org among others, which might be available.
First, try to keep your domain name short (think about simplicity) and catchy. Do some research, check the thesaurus and brainstorm. As soon as you think of the perfect domain name, check its availability, and if available, register it right away. You can add letters, numbers, and hyphens in your domain name, but special characters are not allowed.
ccTLD means country code top level domain. These are domains which bear the official country domain extension like .ie, .de, .fr, .uk and so on. Normally, to register a ccTLD you must reside in the given country or jurisdictions as stipulated by the ccTLD. You will also be required to give some proof of residence in the form of a country address or business address. In the case of .ie domain extensions you will need to prove you have connections in Ireland. Be sure to research additional requirements on the ccTLD of your choice. Linux Hosting has hundreds of ccTLDs but if by chance you need a particular one and it’s not there, go ahead and ask our support team we can check on the availability for you.
A generic Top-Level Domain (gTLD is a unique word or acronym that lets online users locate your site fast. They are descriptive TLDs that identifies your brand like .MEDIA, .STORE, .APP (has a built-in SSL certificate) etc. As more websites flood the internet, and .COM names being exhausted, the need for more descriptive TLDs emerged and gTLDs were conceived. Now you have a greater chance of finding the perfect domain that suits your brand.
