What are Dedicated Servers?

Corporate web pages, social networks and video sharing web sites are very popular and busy web pages that demand a lot of resources to function. The more visitors a web portal accommodates simultaneously, the more system resources will be needed to tackle all the requests from the clients' web browsers and to fulfill them. Therefore a dedicated server would be the optimum website hosting platform for such web pages.

Purchasing a dedicated server implies that you get a whole web server at your disposal. Unlike the hosting services or the virtual private servers solution where you share a physical machine with a given number of other customers, with a dedicated server you can avail of all the system resources for your websites' requirements.

Dedicated Server Hardware Equipment

There are varied hosting server configurations that you can buy. They differ in terms of the hardware specifications they include - processors, RAM quotas, hard disk drives, NICs, but they may also have a monthly web traffic limit. For a highly visited site, or if you would like to host plenty of portals on one hosting server, you may think of a more powerful configuration.

Going Dedicated? How Much? That's the Point.

At Magnolia Sweets Web Hosting we supply diverse configurations to fulfill the demands of every client - from a small server for one web site to a very avant-garde configuration that can handle very busy sites and 1000's of viewers at any particular moment. The CPU and data space quotas and the database connections can be limited only by the server hardware itself.

Dedicated Server Hosting - Advantages and Web Hosting CPs

One important advantage of the dedicated server hosting over a shared hosting package is that you are granted complete root-level access, so you can install any software platform that you would like. Some e-commerce shopping cart scripts, for example, require extra software that cannot be installed on a shared server as it would influence all the customers on it. With a dedicated server, you have complete independence to install anything. You can manage the dedicated server either by utilizing the SSH protocol, or via a website hosting Control Panel user interface. Here, you have an option again. You can use a website hosting Control Panel supplied by the web hosting supplier, or you can install your own one. Some well-known web hosting Control Panel interfaces are Hepsia, cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin and H-Sphere. Most website hosting CP interfaces are license-free (Hepsia), while others (cPanel) request a monthly license fee to use them.

Turn Your Dedicated Server Into a Cash Machine

Along with the opportunity to host your own domain name, a dedicated server gives you the chance to set up your very own hosting corporation and to offer web hosting solutions to other persons. A lot of website hosting Control Panel tools have a hosting reseller administration software counterpart, so if you have an invoice transaction & customer support solution like as WHMCS, AWBS or ClientExec, you can build your web hosting business, setting up a variety of hosting accounts for your future customers. You can also offer support to your clients directly, and, since you have full server root access, you can install software applications on demand, so your clients will be contented with the service they obtain.

Managed Dedicated Server Hosting Solutions

We also offer an extra paid administration service. Our system administrators will help you with any problem that you may have with your dedicated server hosting - an OS update, a script activation, a troubleshooting procedure, or any other problem that you may experience.

A dedicated server - the Top web hosting Platform

A dedicated server is the top hosting platform if you are looking for a powerful and reliable website hosting service without hassling about exceeding any quota limitations. Whether you will host your own personal sites, or you are a site designer with many clients and demand web content space for your work, or you desire to make some good cash by offering the web hosting server storage space to others, a dedicated server will give you the autonomy that no other website hosting environment can.
