Cloud hosting is Cheap Dedicated Hosting

This article is one I wrote some days back. Please read it and feel free to add your comments. In some of the future posts I will

Cheap dedicated hosting is hard to find. Many a times the dedicated hosting packages are designed in such a way that webmasters fear to go for such expensive plans. Most dedicated hosting services, dedicated web hosting or dedicate server packages start from around $100 per month. And there are generally additional overheads of maintaining and managing the software on a dedicated server. Managed hosting services are one answer for this but again the cost becomes a deterring factor.  On the other hand the shared hosting options have their own dark side. The hosting providers who promise unlimited domain and unlimited bandwidth are helpless when a client overloads there infrastructure with millions page requests. As a result of which other customers sharing the same infrastructure suffer.

In such a landscape webmasters looking for Cheap dedicated hosting options often get lost in search results. Deepak Nanda, who works as a Senior Technical Analyst in a software development company in India (  is a webmaster when he is back at home) says, in his last 10 years of experience with website hosting he has seen a very ugly face of shared hosting services companies online. He goes further in launching his own hosting service at an interestingly named website www.Ihatethiswebhost.com where is provides affordable cloud hosting packages. He further says, if cloud hosting packages start from $100 or even $50 per month then it might not be of solutions for many webmaster who are looking for cheap yet dedicated hosting service which is many folds  superior to shared hosting but with in a manageable cost.

One particular thing that might be of interest to the readers is the actual chat transcripts that Deepak has posted on his site under story behind ihatethiswebhost.com. The transcripts describe the shared hosting blues he has faced and what motivated him to start Ihatethiswebhost.com. The story behind this  cloud hosting site link is one of thousand experiences that he has had with such shared hosting providers, Deepak explains.

Cloud sites is a concept where a huge, multiple infrastructure is inter connected  in such a redundant  fashion that a particular site served from multiple nodes at the same time, so if a particular node gets more load then automatically other nodes come into play and join hands. That is a 10000 miles view of the cloud computing concept. Hopefully, Cloud sites will be an answer to the webmasters who are looking for Cheap Dedicated Hosting.
