An evaluation of ticopaginas

We, at raidersodds.com, have picked 'ticopaginas' to be our present domain and hosting vendor. Therefore we consider that this short review of 'ticopaginas' is perchance going to be quite helpful for other people from all around the Globe in need of domain name and web hosting services. We say individuals from all over the Globe, because the mere truth is that 'ticopaginas' currently provides domain and hosting services in numerous server farm sites: in the US (Chicago, IL), in England (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, encompassing virtually the entire Globe. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'ticopaginas' in a few words:

Shared Webspace Hosting Services

The initial detail we, at raidersodds.com, have observed is the affordable prices of the shared hosting packages offered by 'ticopaginas'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared hosting. The good thing here is that the website hosting accounts offered by 'ticopaginas' are driven by an in-house invented, futuristic cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as email, databases, web site hosting CP, storage space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being run on an autonomous stack of web hosting servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting distributor in the World will have enormous troubles with, because cPanel is a one single server based site hosting platform (each web hosting service, like email, databases, web page hosting CP, disk storage, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being handled by a single server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel-based web space hosting corporations are not able to add new functionality and handle it the way they want it) and there is no open source file platform (they have to invent their own file platform), which is at the bottom of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared site hosting plans, which are driven by an actual clustered website hosting system. With a shared web page hosting package, each client pays solely for his/her plan, thus keeping the web hosting price really low (because multiple clients use one and the same hosting server). In short, a shared hosting plan, which runs on a clustered web hosting platform, enables you to pay only for the reserves that you indeed demand, averting a scenario where you pay for a high-end website hosting package that you cannot really use, or for a small web hosting account that cannot handle your website. The option to upgrade your account from one plan to another with just 2 clicks grants you the flexibility to start with a low-end plan and upgrade as your web site expands. So, you save capital that you can invest in publicizing the site while it is still brand new. Every site hosting package supplied by 'ticopaginas' boasts an online website builder and over 40 popular script software platforms such as WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you 100s of dollars for web site design services. 'ticopaginas' offers shared hosting services in several different countries across the Globe. There is one data center facility in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; two European datacenter facilities - in Britain and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific. Hence, practically the whole Globe is encompassed to supply you and your website's visitors with a stable and fast webspace hosting solution at a desired place. As a whole, the shared hosting plans furnished 'ticopaginas' are quite well stocked and are available at a very cheap price (starting from $7.00 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To users with little to no experience, a private virtual server may appear hard to handle. That's perhaps why 'ticopaginas' also offers semi-dedicated servers in its main American server farm facility in Chicago. Handling these plans is similar to administering a standard shared web space hosting package through a website hosting CP interface. They have all the specs of a shared web site hosting plan such as a free-of-cost site building tool and a PHP script installer, but the amount of system resources provided by a semi-dedicated web server hosting plan is many times bigger than that of a shared web site hosting plan. For instance, the CPU power that can be utilized is almost FIVE times as much as compared with the shared plans. When juxtaposed to a shared webspace hosting plan, the quota of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting plans is immense: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted TLD allowance is a principle as well. The semi-dedicated web server plans do not ship with root-level access (we, at raidersodds.com, think that this is a little minus), but the benefit is that they are administered via the very same web site hosting CP user interface as the shared web space hosting packages. This indicates that a user-friendly graphical user interface is offered to all users who are not confident enough to administer a virtual web server, yet require more power and resources than a virtual private web hosting server can supply them with. This is so due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web servers share the system resources of the same powerful top-class hosting servers as the ones which accommodate the VPS hosting server packages, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated web hosting servers is quite low (somewhere between twenty to thirty per physical server), whereas the virtual web hosting servers can reach a much higher number (80 to 120 per physical machine). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers delivered by 'ticopaginas' can be branded as being amazingly affordable (as far as cost is concerned), commencing from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Servers

In raidersodds.com's opinion, enormous sites such as social networks, community and corporate portals or famous online storefronts with 1000s of customers require a much more powerful webspace hosting platform. It appears that the guys from 'ticopaginas' have drawn the same conclusion as well. To fulfil its clients' demands, 'ticopaginas' provides a number of dedicated web hosting servers that can cope with millions of daily hits. That assessment stands on the hardware specs the servers arrive with: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four gigabytes of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of disk storage and Gigabit network interface cards will beyond doubt guarantee the quick and steady performance of any type of site. In 'ticopaginas's opinion, the original hardware configurations can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring web sites. We, from raidersodds.com, think that all dedicated server plans supplied by 'ticopaginas' are also suitable for commencing a hosting reseller business as every dedicated server includes free-of-charge invoice transaction software platform and a charge-free domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated hosting servers provided by 'ticopaginas' are all unmanaged. We, at raidersodds.com, count this as a slight disadvantage, which can be amended by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $36.00 USD. So, if you are in need of help, the Managed Services upgrade offers a selection of additional services such as a regular backup, software installation, server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. A bouquet of site hosting CP (CP) interfaces are offered with each of the dedicated hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (raidersodds.com's) prognosis is that the exceptional drag-and-drop File Manager included in the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel will perhaps render the use of any File Transfer Protocol client pointless. Our (raidersodds.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers supplied by 'ticopaginas' don't appear to be very inexpensive (yet the Hepsia Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain allowance will doubtlessly make you smile), starting from $40.00 for the Atom 2c package.
