This article mainly shows you "how to choose a good virtual host or website space". The content is simple and clear, and I hope it can help you solve your doubts. Let the editor lead you to study and learn the article "how to choose a good virtual host or website space".

To select a virtual host or web space, you need to follow the following steps:

Tools / raw materials

A computer with access to the Internet

Steps / methods

one

Determine the required virtual host or site space type according to your website program code type

If your program is asp or aspx, you need to choose the virtual host or web space of the windows environment. If it is a php program, you need to choose the virtual host or web space of the linux or Unix platform. If it is a pure static web page (pure html code), you can choose a virtual host or space for any platform.

two

Select the appropriate virtual host or web space according to the type of database you need (check if your host vendor provides the database support you need)

Generally speaking, windows platform servers (many of which are made into so-called universal hosts) can support both access and databases such as mysql SQL.

Access support is not available for linux hosts. However, it is best to choose a linux host for PHP programs.

three

Select the storage capacity, database size and site traffic of the virtual host or site space according to your site size and visitors

1) if your site is mainly text content, in addition to the site source code most of the data stored in the database, you can choose a smaller storage capacity, larger database capacity or choose the type of database and web page storage space sharing.

2) if the website is a picture station, resource download station, etc., which requires a large number of files to be stored on the server, you should choose the one with large storage space.

3) calculate the required traffic (bandwidth) based on the size of your page and the number of visitors, for example:

The average page size is 30kb. If you expect to visit 1000IP every day and browse an average of 4 pages per person, the monthly traffic required is as follows:

30*4*1000*30=3600000kb=3600M=3.6G (it's good for a personal website to be visited by 1000 people a day)

four

Select a virtual host or web space provider

Mainly consider the speed, stability, performance-to-price ratio, service quality, convenient management and other factors.

1) for domestic hosts, it is recommended to choose large IDC operators such as Wanwang and Xinwang, which have their own computer rooms, have good speed and stability, and have strong ability to resist policy risks. Of course, the price is also the most expensive (you can go to Taobao search agent, the price generally has a high discount). Small operators had better not choose domestic ones, although cheap, but the stability is too unreliable.

2) if the budget is tight, it is recommended to choose a foreign virtual host or website space (such as the United States, the United Kingdom). Western developed countries have some legal requirements in terms of online time (stability), which can basically achieve more than 99%. And the IP resources and bandwidth resources abroad are many times better than those at home. The ratio of performance to price is relatively high. In terms of access speed, it will be a little slower than the computer room of the big domestic operators, but it is still very good (and getting better and better) compared with many small domestic operators.

The author is more inclined to choose foreign hosts and can be exempted from filing. At present, all the author's websites are located in the computer room in Washington, USA. Of course, if you can't buy it directly without US dollars, you can choose some US virtual hosts provided by domestic operators (the one I bought now is quite good, which can be found in the Amoy Yibao search store "VAOON US Server Virtual Host").

3) in addition to ftp management, it is better to have an independent management platform, which can perform operations such as online file decompression, domain name binding, database management, and checking the status of the host. Never choose a virtual host or web space where you can only give a ftp account and then let you resolve the domain name to which IP (like VAOON's US virtual host provides CPanel Chinese panel is very convenient).

five

Choose the method of payment or apply for a trial

For large operators like Wanwang, this can be ignored. But to choose the host of a small operator, you need to try it first or the operator promises to be dissatisfied with the refund. Or just choose to support monthly payment.

For example, the author now chooses this "VAOON American server virtual host" to support monthly payment and 7-day unsatisfactory full refund.

six

If the budget is tight or the test station, you can choose a better free host (it's good to use it for a few days for a while)

The 400m PHP mainframe used by the author is quite good (j.mp/9QvNGf).

END

Matters needing attention
