Countless web hosting sites have surfaced on the World Wide Web.  And so have countless web hosting offers & countless myths! It’s time to cut through delusions & know the truth about web hosting; shared hosting in particular in this post.

Here are some common myths related to Shared web hosting, which no longer hold true.

Myth#: That Shared hosting is a victim of “bad neighborhood” problem

It’s a common belief that as hundreds of websites are sharing the common server space in shared web hosting, your site might suffer from slow speed if any of the bad neighbors (websites) is consuming lots of RAM/disk IO/memory/network etc.

Fact—Most of the good web hosting providers have been able to minimize this problem to a great extent with their quick action & considerable monitoring of the server. A good provider aims to keep its server in a healthy state by keeping a constant vigil on its online resources. If any intricacies crop up on the server, it takes the necessary action to resolve the issues and send an alert to all the website owners. As a result, the ‘bad neighborhood’ problem is no more a serious concern.

Myth#: That Shared hosting is non-flexible

It’s a common perception that shared hosting is not flexible, and not many latest software can be run on the shared server.

Fact—Shared web hosting is flexible. A good shared web hosting provider would allow you to successfully install and run any software provided it adheres to its AUP (acceptable use policy) & does not consume a lot of available resources on the server. It also fetches you all the required tools using which you can install the software in the home directory of your website & are not supposed to reboot your system to run the same.

Myth#: That Shared hosting is NOT up-to-date

It’s commonly believed that shared hosting does not entail the latest developments & resources in the web hosting business.

Fact—A good modern shared web host equips its users with all the advanced tools, applications & resources besides updating its repository with new tools from time to time. So, when you purchase a shared web hosting plan keep aside all the fears & go ahead confidently hosting your site on a shared web server.

Myth#: That Shared hosting is full of hassles.

Many people think since there are numerous websites housed on a common server, the experience of shared web hosting would be problematic or rather horrifying. And that, it can deter the progress of your website.

Fact—Shared web hosting does not encompass hassles as it’s commonly thought. Also, it’s available at quite affordable prices, and does not create a hole in your pocket in the process of hosting your website. In shared hosting, the backup of all your data & files is created on the server. So, you don’t need to worry about the aspect of data loss too.

We hope that reading this post would help you overcome some of the myths that you may have about shared hosting, and prompt you to try a shared web hosting plan of a good provider for your website.

SingleHop’s Tandem system was launched on February 10th and has revolutionized the way that servers are resold by solving some of the reseller business’ toughest issues: Lack of control, limited economies of scale, and marketing and R&D budget constraints. As part of the webhosts focus on providing dedicated server resellers with more control they released the end-user control panel in over 15 languages. All the current functionality and access features of the Tandem Panel will be retained in each of these different language options.

The Tandem Panel is fully customizable with resellers’ logo, brand, colors and image, includes a fully-featured help desk with advanced ticketing functions, enables remote reboot and support, supplies server and bandwidth usage information, and is available as a mobile and webtop application. SingleHop is not offering support in these fifteen languages, only the end-user control panel.

“We’re offering the Tandem control panel in these 15 languages because we’re truly committed to fulfilling the Tandem principle of helping our clients’ have more control and sell more servers,’” says SingleHop VP of Sales and Marketing Dan Ushman. “This will enable our reseller clients to better serve and access both new and existing markets. We understand that having this type of control and flexibility has a direct impact on sales and profit, and the Tandem reseller program was designed from the beginning to maximize that control and flexibility—and thus, maximize profits.”

Dan added, “We’re also open to working with clients in translating Tandem to additional languages as needed. Here at SingleHop, and especially with the Tandem program, we believe that we are your partners and allies in growing and effectively managing your business, finding the right tools for your webhosting needs, and achieving your sales goals. If there is something more that we can do to help make that happen, we want to know about it.”

For server administrators and web hosts who need features such as server alerts, spam monitoring or even want to set up white-label reseller accounts, cPanel combined with Web Host Manager (WHM) provides an easy-to-use and versatile alternative for managing servers.

Venali Snapshot
A graduate of West Point and The Wharton School, John Poncy also served as a Special Operations Officer and EDS executive. With his background and career experiences, he brings an acute understanding of critical success factors and the operational excellence provided by industry-leading uptime. His experience in the technology arena gives him the confidence and sense of customer requirements to cut to the chase when it comes to talking about his business.
For Poncy, it’s all about providing solid products, backed by top-notch service – and finding out from his clients what else Venali can provide to enrich their experience with the company.
“The first question I always ask customers is ‘how are you going to use our service?’ because that tells me exactly the product that will satisfy their requirements,” he notes. “Our customers want rapid ROI, not a promise of savings in two years. They typically have a target on their heads to reduce costs, so the application they choose has to work well every time. I know we’ve been successful when they ask me what other services we provide.”
Venali’s portfolio comprises products and services for three customer categories:
• Enterprise – These Venali customers are looking for a platform that’s reliable, secure and scalable, which can be deployed across multiple locations, users and platforms. Also important is the opportunity to demonstrate a ‘green’ message by reducing paper and energy usage.

• Channel Partners – To expand its business, Venali offers its capabilities through channel partners who desire to include fax capabilities in their services portfolio.

• Small Office/Home Office – For these customers, Venali provides fax services from the devices they use for e-mail. With Web-based services and a simple pricing model that starts at $9.95, these customers want faxing that’s as easy as e-mail and requires very little customer support.

Because the Venali customer base spans multiple industries, the company must meet specific compliance requirements. From Sarbanes-Oxley to PCI, HIPAA and SAS 70, the team understands how they measure up and exceed customer expectations for each.
Looking to the future, Poncy says his product development team is looking to additional industries, expanded geographies and to new products and services, all with an eye to what’s next for his company.
