At AwardSpace your web success is of key importance. Hence, we are doing our best to update our knowledge base, WordPress tutorials, and other resources too. Also, we’ve built a help center for beginners. We do understand that with the progress of your website, your web hosting needs will grow as well.
We do our best to ensure that growing websites can scale efficiently.
Therefore, we’ve made it extremely easy for everyone to upgrade the web hosting service they are using.
No matter, if you’re creating your first blog or handling a complicated business site, being aware of the specific features and benefits of these hosting plans, will assist you in making an informed choice that matches your objectives and financial plan. Keep in mind that you can scale up at any time. So, you can easily start with a free hosting service, upgrading to a shared hosting plan once the free service is no longer enough for your web project. Should your website outgrow the shared hosting, feel free to move a step forward and scale the web resources you get with Semi-Dedicated Web Hosting.
Free Hosting
The free hosting service of AwardSpace, the pioneer of LAMP free hosting over 20 years ago, remains the best in the market. Our free hosting service offers the highest resources, numerous options unavailable elsewhere, and extensive functionality that suits even the most advanced users.
Shared Hosting
This option is the most cost-effective premium hosting service, perfect for smaller websites or those experiencing moderate traffic. Be aware of our promotions, and check our website regularly, as our Basic Shared Hosting plan is regularly discounted.
Semi-Dedicated Hosting
A middle ground between shared hosting and a fully dedicated server, semi-dedicated hosting provides significantly more resources (like CPU and RAM usage) and supports higher traffic. It is ideal for websites that have outgrown shared hosting but do not yet require a dedicated server. Prices for semi-dedicated hosting plans start at around $14.99 per month.
VPS Cloud Hosting (Virtual Private Server)
VPS hosting offers more control and better performance than shared hosting. It includes features like dedicated resources (CPU and RAM), full root access, and the choice of multiple operating systems including Debian, CentOS, and Ubuntu. This is suitable for more advanced users who need greater customization and control over their hosting environment.
Each type of hosting includes 24/7 customer support and a variety of additional features, such as a free website builder and one-click CMS installations, to help you launch your site quickly. Whether you’re starting a simple blog, managing a complex e-commerce site, or anything in between, AwardSpace offers a range of options to suit your specific needs.
