The most affordable and well-liked kind of web hosting is called shared hosting, in which several websites are housed on one server while making use of all of its resources.
1) Every account hosted on the shared server has a limit on the amount of server resources it can use, such as RAM, CPU time, disk space, bandwidth, email accounts, FTP accounts, and so on.
2) Basic web analytics, emails, a restricted amount of disk space, webmail services, auto-script installations, up-to-date MySQL/MS SQL and PHP/ASP software, and post-purchase technical assistance are all commonly included in shared hosting packages.
3) Web providers offer an online control panel to manage the hosting account, such as cPanel, DirectAdmin, Plesk, InterWorx, WebsitePanel, or H-Sphere, since shared clients do not have access to the actual web server.
4) Customers can manage their websites, email accounts, databases, FTP accounts, and DNS records through the control panel. Large web hosting businesses occasionally utilize control panels that they have specially designed and built.
5) When a customer uses shared hosting, the web hosting company handles all server management, software installation, security updates, post-purchase technical support, and other web hosting service-related tasks.
6) Additionally, some web servers provide Microsoft Windows hosting options built around the Plesk or WebsitePanel control panels. Propriate software is needed for Windows-based hosting, such as MS SQL Server and IIS web server.Net frameworks for hosting websites built with the ASP.Net programming language.
7) Windows web servers can run PHP and ASP.Net-based websites with a few extra software installations, but Linux web servers cannot run ASP.Net-based websites.
