What is Virtual Web Hosting?

We are specialized in Virtual Web Hosting, which means that you can find a home for your web site on our active web servers and establish a presence on the internet. We can help you to register your own domain name and it will become your unique address on the World Wide Web. Since email can be addressed to your domain (eg: www.yourdomain.com ), you will not have to announce a new email address if you change to another Internet provider or web hosting company.

What is virtual web hosting?

Virtual web hosting refers to the process of running multiple "virtual" web servers on a single physical host computer. Using this technique, a single computer can host thousands of independent web sites. Commercial web hosting service providers often use this technique to allow better manageability, efficiency and scalability of their service infrastructure.

Virtual hosting is a method that servers such as web servers use to host more than one domain name on the same computer, sometimes on the same IP address.

Virtual web hosting is one of the most popular hosting options available at the moment - probably because it is one of the most cost effective options on the market. Also known as shared hosting, virtual hosting allows a website owner to have a site hosted on a web server that is shared with other websites. In simple terms, the virtual hosting company's server will allocate out hosting services and bandwidth to more than one website. Virtual web hosting is a cheaper hosting option because you won't have to pay for a dedicated server to host just your website.

Virtual web hosting is a good solution for small- to medium-sized (and even some larger) websites that aren't constantly being visited or that have reasonable bandwidth needs.

There are two basic methods of accomplishing virtual hosting:  name-based, and IP address or ip-based.

Name-based
Name-based virtual hosts use multiple host names for the same webserver IP address.

IP-Based
In IP-based virtual hosting each site (either a DNS hostname or a group of DNS hostnames that act the same) points to a unique IP address. The web server is configured with multiple physical network interfaces, virtual network interfaces on the same physical interface or multiple IP addresses on one interface.

The web server can obtain the address the TCP connection was intended for using a standard API and use this to determine which website to serve. The client is not involved in this process and therefore (unlike with name based virtual hosting) there are no compatibility issues.

Virtual hosting is the term used to describe multiple domains that are hosted on the same server. Virtual web hosting can be compared to leasing an item as opposed to purchasing it. In this case, you are leasing a service offered by a virtual hosting provider that generally includes the following:

• Basic server features
• Internet connection services
• Domain name registration
• File storage and directory services
• An email account with related services

In addition, a provider of virtual hosting may provide website and web page design.
