An assessment of Schrikkel Hosting

We, at bendter.com, have picked 'Schrikkel Hosting' to be our current domain name and hosting provider. Hence we think that this short assessment of 'Schrikkel Hosting' is maybe going to be quite helpful for other individuals from all around the Globe who need domain name and web hosting services. We state individuals from all over the World, since the mere truth is that 'Schrikkel Hosting' presently distributes domain and hosting services in several datacenter facility locations: in America (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, embracing approximately the entire Earth. At least from the point of view of the Internet. So, here is what you could expect from 'Schrikkel Hosting' in a nutshell:

Shared Webspace Hosting Solutions

The initial detail we, at bendter.com, have detected is the affordable prices of the shared web site hosting plans delivered by 'Schrikkel Hosting'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the website hosting packages provided by 'Schrikkel Hosting' are powered by a custom designed, state-of-the-art cloud web hosting solution (each hosting service, like email, databases, web hosting Control Panel, web space, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being dealt with by a different stack of servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting firm on the Globe will have mammoth predicaments with, since cPanel is a one single server based website hosting platform (each hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, website hosting Control Panel, storage space, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being handled by one single web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel-based hosting vendors are not able to include additional functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file system (they must invent their own file system), which is the premise of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared web hosting plans, which are driven by an actual clustered web space hosting solution. With a shared webspace hosting account, each customer pays just for his/her package, thus maintaining the web site hosting price amazingly low (since a lot of users use one and the same hosting server). In short, a shared hosting package, which runs on a cloud website hosting solution, allows you to pay just for the reserves that you actually require, avoiding a situation where you pay for an advanced website hosting plan that you cannot truly use, or for a tiny web space hosting package that cannot host your website. The option to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only two clicks of the mouse gives you the flexibility to begin with a basic plan and upgrade as your web presence expands. So, you economize capital that you can invest in publicizing the web page while it is still brand new. Every webspace hosting package delivered by 'Schrikkel Hosting' boasts an online web site builder and over 40 popular script-driven software applications like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you hundreds of dollars for web design solutions. 'Schrikkel Hosting' offers shared site hosting accounts in a number of different regions around the Globe. There is one datacenter in Chicago encompassing the USA and Canada; 2 European server farms - in Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia-Pacific. Thus, approximately the entire Globe is covered to present you and your visitors with a stable and fast web hosting service at a desired location. Altogether, the shared hosting packages provided 'Schrikkel Hosting' are very well equipped and come at a very affordable price (starting from $3.17 for the Beginner package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To users with little to no practice, a VPS may seem troublesome to administer. That's probably why 'Schrikkel Hosting' also stores semi-dedicated hosting servers in its main United States data center facility in Chicago. Managing these plans is similar to administering a conventional shared web hosting plan through a site hosting Control Panel user interface. They have all the features of a shared web hosting plan such as a free-of-cost site building tool and a web app installation tool, but the amount of system resources typical of a semi-dedicated web server hosting package is many times larger than that of a shared web hosting account. For example, the central processing unit power that can be utilized is about 5 times as much as compared with the shared website hosting plans. When contrasted with a shared hosting package, the number of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting packages is big: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted TLD allowance is a standard too. The semi-dedicated server web hosting accounts do not offer full root-level access (we, at bendter.com, count this as a little inconvenience), but the advantage is that they are managed via the very same web site hosting CP tool as the shared web page hosting accounts. This goes to say that a user-friendly graphical environment is available to all users who do not have enough confidence to handle a private virtual server, but at the same time are in need of more power and features than a VPS web server can give them. This is so owing to the fact that the semi-dedicated servers share the resources of the same powerful high-end web servers as the ones which host the virtual hosting server packages, however, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is quite low (somewhere between twenty to 30 per physical server), whereas the virtual web servers can reach a much bigger number (eighty to a hundred and twenty per physical machine). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers supplied by 'Schrikkel Hosting' can be classified as being very affordable (as far as cost is concerned), beginning from $20.00 for the Fast plan.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

According to bendter.com, large websites such as social networks, community and corporate portals or popular web stores with 1000s of clients demand a much more powerful webspace hosting platform. It seems that the folks from 'Schrikkel Hosting' have come to the same conclusion as well. To answer its customers' expectations, 'Schrikkel Hosting' supplies a number of dedicated web hosting servers that can handle millions of daily visits. That assessment stands on the hardware specifications the dedicated web hosting servers come with: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of data storage and Gigabit NICs will beyond doubt guarantee the quick and steady performance of any kind of web site. According to 'Schrikkel Hosting', the original hardware specifications can be upgraded for more resource-demanding websites. We, from bendter.com, consider that all dedicated server specs offered by 'Schrikkel Hosting' are also appropriate for launching a hosting reseller business as every dedicated web server provides free invoice transaction software and a bonus domain reseller account. Unfortunately, the dedicated web hosting servers offered by 'Schrikkel Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at bendter.com, consider this a slight downside, which can be rectified by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you are in need of support, the Managed Services upgrade includes an assortment of supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated web hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. A bouquet of webspace hosting Control Panel (CP) tools are available with each of the servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (bendter.com's) prognosis is that the excellent drag-and-drop File Manager offered by the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel will perhaps make the recourse to any File Transfer Protocol client futile. Our (bendter.com's) inference is that the dedicated servers supplied by 'Schrikkel Hosting' don't appear to be very inexpensive (yet the Hepsia hosting CP and the unlimited hosted domain name quotas will definitely make you smile), commencing from $113.00 for the Xeon Scalable 6c plan.
