An assessment of Flint Web Hosting

We, at twistedvisions.org, have chosen 'Flint Web Hosting' to be our present domain and hosting distributor. This is why we anticipate that this succinct review of 'Flint Web Hosting' is perhaps going to be very useful for other people from all over the World who are looking for domain name and web hosting services. We state people from all around the World, because the simple truth is that 'Flint Web Hosting' currently offers domain and hosting services in numerous datacenter facility sites: in the USA (Chicago, IL), in the United Kingdom (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, embracing approximately the whole Earth. At least from the point of view of the World Wide Web. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'Flint Web Hosting' in a nutshell:

Shared Web Hosting Accounts

The first detail we, at twistedvisions.org, have spotted is the budget prices of the shared webspace hosting accounts supplied by 'Flint Web Hosting'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared hosting. The good thing here is that the web site hosting packages offered by 'Flint Web Hosting' are driven by a custom invented, cutting edge cloud web hosting platform (each hosting service, like email, databases, web site hosting CP, disk storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being tackled by an independent stack of servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance EVERY cPanel web hosting company on the Earth will have enormous troubles with, since cPanel is a one single server based hosting platform (each web hosting service, like mail, databases, web hosting Control Panel, web space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being tackled by one and the same web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel-based web site hosting companies are unable to include additional functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file platform (they must design their own file platform), which is the premise of any cloud web hosting service. Let's return to the shared website hosting plans, which are driven by a real cloud web site hosting solution. With a shared web page hosting package, each customer pays just for his/her package, thus retaining the hosting price really low (since plenty of users share one and the same web server). In short, a shared hosting package, which is hosted on a cloud site hosting system, enables you to pay just for the resources that you indeed demand, averting a scenario where you pay for a high-end web space hosting account that you cannot actually use, or for a tiny website hosting account that cannot host your site. The possibility to upgrade your account from one package to another with only 2 clicks grants you the flexibility to kick off with a basic package and upgrade as your website expands. Thus, you save funds that you can expend on promoting the web page while it is still brand new. Each and every website hosting package provided by 'Flint Web Hosting' includes an online site builder and over 40 widely used script platforms including WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you hundreds of dollars for web design services. 'Flint Web Hosting' offers shared site hosting packages in a number of different countries around the Globe. There is one server farm facility in Chicago encompassing the United States and Canada; 2 European server farms - in Great Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia-Pacific. Thus, virtually the entire Earth is covered to supply you and your visitors with a steady and reliable webspace hosting service at a desired place. As a whole, the shared hosting accounts offered 'Flint Web Hosting' are quite well furnished and are available at a very cheap price (beginning from $3.92 for the Business package).

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

According to twistedvisions.org, huge web sites such as social networks, community and corporate web portals or famous web shops with 1000s of customers demand a much more powerful hosting environment. It seems that the chaps from 'Flint Web Hosting' have reached the same conclusion too. To answer its clients' needs, 'Flint Web Hosting' supplies an assortment of dedicated web hosting servers that can manage millions of daily hits. That evaluation rests on the hardware configurations the dedicated web hosting servers come with: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, 2000 GB of disk storage and Gigabit NICs will doubtlessly ensure the quick and stable performance of any type of web site. According to 'Flint Web Hosting', the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more resource-requiring websites. We, from twistedvisions.org, deem that all dedicated server plans provided by 'Flint Web Hosting' are also appropriate for establishing a hosting reseller business as every server offers free invoicing transaction software and a cost-free domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated web hosting servers supplied by 'Flint Web Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at twistedvisions.org, regard this as a small downside, which can be corrected by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you are in need of aid, the Managed Services upgrade provides an array of supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, web server surveillance and troubleshooting operations. A selection of webspace hosting CP (CP) interfaces are offered with each of the hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (twistedvisions.org's) forecast is that the great drag-and-drop File Manager available in the Hepsia web site hosting Control Panel will probably render the use of any File Transfer Protocol software futile. Our (twistedvisions.org's) inference is that the dedicated servers delivered by 'Flint Web Hosting' don't seem to be very inexpensive (yet the Hepsia web site hosting CP and the unmetered hosted domain allowance will doubtlessly make you smile), starting from $143.00 for the Xeon Scalable 8c package.
