What Is Shared Hosting

Every website needs a virtual home called the web server. Like a traditional business, a website could rent either just a web space or an entire web server. For developing websites, renting a web space is the most popular choice.

Sharing a single server with different websites is called Shared Hosting. These websites will be sharing the same resources from a single server – each limited to the allotted amount of resources set by the hosting plan.

If you’re getting started online, Shared Hosting is the cheapest and most economical option available for you. However, cheap price comes with drawbacks. When your site gets more traffic, it may begin to perform less, and websites sharing the same server as yours may pose threat to your site.

But, don't fret. It is rest assured that every website under Crazy Domains' hosting service is monitored regularly. You will be notified whenever you need to upgrade your hosting plan. In time, you can upgrade to another Shared Hosting plan that suits your budget and needs. More importantly, Crazy Domains suspends sites that pose threats to others on the same server.

Whether you are on a tight budget or just starting out, Shared Hosting is a great option. Now, you won’t have an excuse to start your own website, or to digitise your business.

Important Note: Same principles apply to Linux and Windows Hosting.
