An evaluation of Siddiqui Hosting

We, at milc.org.uk, have selected 'Siddiqui Hosting' to be our current domain and web hosting supplier. Hence we believe that this brief assessment of 'Siddiqui Hosting' is probably going to be quite useful for other folks from all around the Globe in search for domain name and web hosting solutions. We say people from all over the World, because the simple fact is that 'Siddiqui Hosting' currently distributes domain and hosting services in multiple data center sites: in the United States (Chicago, IL), in the UK (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thereby, encompassing practically the entire planet. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'Siddiqui Hosting' in short:

Shared Webspace Hosting Packages

The first thing we, at milc.org.uk, have detected is the cut-rate prices of the shared website hosting packages offered by 'Siddiqui Hosting'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the site hosting plans furnished by 'Siddiqui Hosting' are powered by an in-house created, ultramodern cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as mail, databases, hosting Control Panel, disk storage, DNS, statistics, etc., runs on an individual set of hosting servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance ANY cPanel web hosting supplier in the World will have enormous troubles with, since cPanel is a one-server based website hosting environment (each hosting service, such as email, databases, web hosting Control Panel, storage space, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being dealt with by one and the same web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (that is why the cPanel webspace hosting providers are unable to include new functionality and handle it the way they want it) and there is no open source file platform (they need to design their own file platform), which is the basis of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared webspace hosting plans, which are driven by a real cloud web page hosting system. With a shared hosting package, each client pays just for his/her package, thus preserving the web hosting price very low (since a lot of clients utilize the same web hosting server). In a few words, a shared hosting account, which is being served by a cloud web hosting solution, permits you to pay only for the resources that you indeed need, evading a situation where you pay for a powerful web hosting package that you cannot really use, or for a basic website hosting plan that cannot accommodate your site. The option to upgrade your account from one package to another with just two clicks grants you the flexibility to kick off with a small package and upgrade as your Internet presence expands. In this way, you economize money that you can spend on publicizing the web page while it is still new. Every web page hosting account delivered by 'Siddiqui Hosting' contains an online web site building tool and over forty popular script-driven platforms including WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you hundreds of dollars for website design solutions. 'Siddiqui Hosting' delivers shared web space hosting plans in several different geographical regions across the Globe. There is one server farm in Chicago encompassing the US and Canada; two European datacenter facilities - in Britain and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia-Pacific region. Thus, practically the whole World is encompassed to present you and your web site's visitors with a steady and fast web hosting service at a preferred place. As a whole, the shared hosting services offered 'Siddiqui Hosting' are quite well appointed and come at a very affordable price (beginning from $2.75 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To clients with little to no practice, a private virtual hosting server may seem complicated to handle. That's perhaps why 'Siddiqui Hosting' also houses semi-dedicated hosting servers in its main US datacenter in Chicago. Handling these packages is comparable to handling a typical shared site hosting account via a site hosting CP interface. They have all the features of a shared web hosting plan such as a free website builder and a web app installation tool, but the system resource quota typical of a semi-dedicated web server hosting package is many times larger than that of a shared account. For instance, the CPU power that can be utilized is nearly FIVE times as much as compared with the shared hosting plans. When juxtaposed to a shared package, the number of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting plans is immense: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted domain allowance is a norm too. The semi-dedicated hosting packages do not ship with full server root privileges (we, at milc.org.uk, think that this is a little negative point), but the benefit is that they are administered via the very same web page hosting CP tool as the shared site hosting plans. This suggests that a user-friendly graphical interface is accessible by all customers who do not feel self-confident enough to administer a virtual private web server, but at the same time need more power and supplies than a VPS web server can deliver. This is like that owing to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the resources of the same powerful hyper-advanced web hosting servers as the ones which accommodate the VPS hosting server accounts, still, the number of the semi-dedicated web hosting servers is very low (somewhere between twenty to 30 per physical machine), whereas the private virtual servers can reach a much higher number (80 to 120 per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers provided by 'Siddiqui Hosting' can be classified as being very inexpensive (as far as cost is concerned), commencing from $20.00 for the Level 1 plan.

Dedicated Web Servers

In milc.org.uk's opinion, enormous web sites such as social networks, community and corporate web portals or popular online shops with 1000s of clients call for a much more powerful web space hosting solution. It seems that the fellows from 'Siddiqui Hosting' have come to the same conclusion as well. To satisfy its clients' needs, 'Siddiqui Hosting' provides a bouquet of dedicated web hosting servers that can tackle millions of daily hits. That estimation rests on the hardware specifications the dedicated hosting servers boast: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four gigabytes of RAM, 2000 GB of disk storage and Gigabit network interface cards will beyond doubt ensure the fast and stable work of any type of web site. In 'Siddiqui Hosting's opinion, the primary hardware configurations can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring sites. We, from milc.org.uk, believe that all dedicated server specifications delivered by 'Siddiqui Hosting' are also suitable for beginning a hosting reseller business as each dedicated server offers free invoice transaction software platform and a free domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated hosting servers offered by 'Siddiqui Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at milc.org.uk, consider this a little weak point, which can be amended by paying a monthly fee which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you are in need of aid, the Managed Services upgrade provides a selection of additional services such as a routine backup, software installation, dedicated hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. A handful of site hosting Control Panel (CP) tools are available with each of the web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (milc.org.uk's) prediction is that the remarkable drag-and-drop File Manager added in the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel will possibly render the use of any File Transfer Protocol client pointless. Our (milc.org.uk's) inference is that the dedicated servers provided by 'Siddiqui Hosting' don't appear to be very affordably priced (yet the Hepsia Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain quotas will undoubtedly make you smile), commencing from $115.00 for the Xeon Scalable 6c package.
