This article mainly introduces the relevant knowledge of what the novice should pay attention to when choosing and purchasing the virtual host, the content is detailed and easy to understand, the operation is simple and quick, and has a certain reference value. I believe that after reading this novice virtual host to pay attention to what matters the article will have a harvest, let's take a look.

First of all, you can't just look at the price. You can doubt this sentence for every penny, but you can't ignore it.

Secondly, you can't just look at the size of the space capacity. This is often the most confusing place. You know, 200 gigabytes of hard disk is only 400 to 500 yuan, which is probably the cheapest thing in the server. Besides, you can't use so much space, don't naively think that the capacity is large, you can put some files to provide download services, other people's space merchants are not stupid.

Third, we should not just listen to IDC's unilateral boasting or just watch advertisements. Every potter praises his pot boasts that if you believe all of him, just wait to be angry.

Fourth, we should not unilaterally pursue the so-called "unlimited". Do not limit traffic, do not limit CPU, do not limit memory. Is it possible that there are unrestricted things in this world?

Fifth, we should not blindly believe in the so-called "multi-line space". Especially for those who claim to be the 345-5678-8 line, this is the evil consequence of the interconnection problem. If you really value this and insist on multiple lines, it is recommended that you choose a double-wire and single ip. One thing you should know, at present, those who provide multi-line services are generally small computer rooms or private computer rooms.

Sixth, you cannot deliberately choose ones that support multiple subdirectory bindings. For example, a server with 100 users, if it supports binding five subdirectories per user, is equal to 100,5500 sites. Can you trust its performance?

Seventh, we can not ignore bandwidth resources (especially when sharing), we should learn to judge. For example, someone who claims to have server 100Mb bandwidth but refuses to mention the word "sharing" should be careful. Do you know? It costs about 1000 yuan a month to enjoy a single 100Mb bandwidth, that is to say, only such a bandwidth costs tens of thousands of yuan a year. Therefore, IDC will not allow you to enjoy this bandwidth exclusively (unless you have your own IDC). Normally, the bandwidth of this 100Mb will be allocated to about 15 servers (unscrupulous IDC vendors may allocate more). Moreover, the bandwidth limit of each server is generally set to around 10Mb. So please remember: there is no 100Mb exclusive bandwidth server for you to use, the so-called 100Mb, basically shared, allocated to each server is only up and down the 10Mb. Here we have to mention the problem of bandwidth unit again! Note that KB is not equal to Kb,MB or that Mb,B represents byte, while b is bit,1B=8b. So, and so on, in fact, the bandwidth of 10Mb on your server, the theoretical speed limit is only about 1.25MB, but in fact, excluding some of the header file information, this number will only be less. At this point, you may ask, is it enough for so many users on the server to use such a small amount of bandwidth resources? The answer is yes. As long as you do not provide downloads, this is sufficient for web access. You can check it out through IIS's traffic monitoring tool.

Taboos are about the above points, let's talk about a few more things that must be done.

First of all, we must look at our own needs. What are we doing with this virtual host? Private blog or do e-commerce station, or garbage station and so on. If you do a blog, you may not need too much space, and an online rate of about 99% will suffice; if you do an e-commerce station, you may need better stability; if you do some websites that may have a lot of pictures, you may need more storage space. Of course, we all have good intentions: the more stable the mainframe and the more space, the better. But you have to know, the more money you need. In addition, take into account the program, if it is PHP or Perl, then it is recommended to use Linux host; if you are using ASP.NET, then you have to choose Windows.

Second, you have to look at what the IDC is good at. Most IDC have their own areas of expertise, such as Bluehost is good at shared hosting, while linode is good at VPS,Media Temple is a little bit, doing a good job in shared hosting,VPS. Based on this information, we need to determine the object of IDC. In this way, it is possible to obtain guaranteed products.

Third, we must see whether the IDC that sells the mainframe is formal. Irregular IDC is not very reassuring. Everything I said to you today is fine-- ensuring stability, ensuring high speed, ensuring first-class service. And I think of you as God! OK, you bought it tomorrow. There will be a problem with the space the day after tomorrow, and you will seek service again, and now it is his turn to be God.

Fourth, you must look at the configuration parameters of the server. Before choosing and buying a host, it is best to learn how to look at the configuration parameters of the server, and learn to look at this and understand this, so as not to be fooled too far.

Fifth, we must be wary of the tricks of free domain names. In order to promote their hosting products, some IDC will bundle the host to send you a free domain name, which is a good thing, but be sure to pay attention to the ownership behind the free domain name. First of all, who owns this domain name? Second, what should we do in the second year? What is the price for renewal?. Experienced students will know how to separate domain name registrars from space merchants, which is right. It is recommended that you do not register your domain name with the space provider. If you have to register in the same company, you need to know whether there is a problem with the domain name transfer in the future. If the owner is us, it doesn't matter. Otherwise, you'd better avoid it.

Sixth, it must be purchased year after year. Many IDC offer multi-year purchase incentives, I do not object to one-time purchase for many years, but recommend you to buy year after year. There are many uncertain factors in the virtual host, such as if the foreign host, which day the IP will be walled and so on. If we buy it year by year or month by month, if something goes wrong, it can be transferred immediately, and the loss will not be too great.

Seventh, we must understand the user's word-of-mouth. For example, I learned about several well-known foreign host providers in China, such as Bluehost, MediaTemple and Hostgator, from other blogs, so the word-of-mouth of users is also an important reference factor for us to choose and buy virtual hosts. Of course, there must be many people who are not satisfied with these IDC. It is normal to have bad comments. We should rationally filter those emotional factors.

Eighth, it is necessary to understand the control panel of the host background. This is not very important when choosing an IDC, but it may affect your mood. For example, you used to use CPanel, but after you switch to Dreamhost, you may feel uncomfortable when you see that his backstage panel is very unfamiliar. Of course, a good mainframe control panel is easy to use and can make our maintenance much easier.

Ninth, you must understand the scalability of the host. With the development of websites or blogs, the existing hosts may not be able to meet the needs and whether they can be upgraded seamlessly. This is a very important issue and must be understood in advance. Some IDC provide shared hosting and VPS, can you upgrade from shared hosting to VPS? Wait, wait, wait.

Tenth, it depends on the after-sales service of this IDC. However, it seems difficult to make an accurate judgment on this problem before buying a mainframe. Based on this, I suggest that you know the reputation of the IDC and also learn about it through previous channels. That's about it. Finally, let's make a summary--

Buying space is like buying a house, buying a house is for people to settle down, and buying space is for a website to settle down. When buying a house, a house of the same size is definitely not the same price in the city and the countryside, so we can not only care about the price and capacity when buying space. When we buy a house, we should consider not only the price and area, but also the location, transportation, community environment, property, peripheral facilities and so on. A high-quality website space also needs to be determined by many factors: computer room environment, server hardware configuration, bandwidth adequacy, specialized servers, virtual host management technology, resource limitations, server or computer room security measures, the number of server sites, after-sales service. All of this, one can not be less!
