An assessment of LiveFrog

We, at kabisigcreditunion.org, have chosen 'LiveFrog' to be our present domain name and hosting vendor. Hence we expect that this concise review of 'LiveFrog' is maybe going to be very helpful for other individuals from all around the World who are looking for domain name and web hosting services. We say folks from all around the World, since the mere truth is that 'LiveFrog' presently delivers domain and hosting services in multiple data center facility locations: in America (Chicago, IL), in Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thereby, embracing practically the whole planet. At least from the point of view of the Internet. So, here is what you could expect from 'LiveFrog' in brief:

Shared Web Space Hosting Services

The first thing we, at kabisigcreditunion.org, have noted is the cut-rate prices of the shared web page hosting packages delivered by 'LiveFrog'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared hosting. The good news here is that the hosting packages delivered by 'LiveFrog' are driven by a custom designed, cutting edge cloud web hosting platform (each hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, web hosting CP, disk storage, DNS, stats, and so on, is being handled by a different bunch of hosting servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance ANY cPanel web hosting distributor on the Globe will have mammoth difficulties with, since cPanel is a single server based hosting platform (each hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, webspace hosting Control Panel, disk storage, DNS, statistics, etc., is being tackled by a single web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (that is why the cPanel-based website hosting companies are unable to include 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 the foundation of any cloud web hosting service. Let's return to the shared web page hosting plans, which are powered by a real cloud web site hosting solution. With a shared website hosting plan, each customer pays just for his/her package, thus retaining the website hosting price very low (since plenty of customers share the same hosting server). In a nutshell, a shared hosting package, which is being served by a cloud site hosting solution, permits you to pay solely for the resources that you actually need, escaping a scenario where you pay for a powerful web site hosting package that you cannot truly utilize, or for a tiny web hosting plan that cannot handle your web page. The option to upgrade your account from one package to another with only 2 clicks grants you the flexibility to commence with a small plan and upgrade as your Internet presence grows. Hence, you save funds that you can spend on promoting the web site while it is still new. Every website hosting plan provided by 'LiveFrog' ships with an online site building tool and more than 40 widely used script software platforms like WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you 100s of dollars for web site design solutions. 'LiveFrog' furnishes shared hosting services in a number of different countries across the Globe. There is one datacenter in Chicago covering the USA and Canada; two European datacenter facilities - in the UK and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific region. In this way, almost the entire Globe is encompassed to provide you and your website's visitors with a stable and reliable site hosting solution at a desired place. As a whole, the shared hosting accounts delivered 'LiveFrog' are really well equipped and come at an affordable price (starting from $3.00 for the Starter plan).

Dedicated Web Servers

In kabisigcreditunion.org's opinion, enormous web sites such as social networks, community and business portals or famous web storefronts with 1000s of clients request a much more powerful site hosting environment. It seems that the guys from 'LiveFrog' have reached the same conclusion as well. To answer its users' expectations, 'LiveFrog' supplies a number of dedicated hosting servers that can handle millions of daily hits. That evaluation stands on the hardware specifications the dedicated servers include: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to 4 GB of RAM, two thousand GB of web space and Gigabit NICs will doubtlessly ensure the fast and steady work of any type of website. In 'LiveFrog's opinion, the primary hardware specs can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring sites. We, from kabisigcreditunion.org, consider that all dedicated server specs furnished by 'LiveFrog' are also suitable for setting up a hosting reseller business as each and every dedicated web server includes free billing software and a free-of-charge domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated web servers supplied by 'LiveFrog' are all unmanaged. We, at kabisigcreditunion.org, deem this a little negative point, which can be amended by paying a monthly fee of $35.00 USD. So, if you require support, the Managed Services upgrade offers a bouquet of supplementary services such as a regular backup, software installation, server surveillance and troubleshooting operations. An array of web hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are offered with each of the dedicated web servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (kabisigcreditunion.org's) prognosis is that the outstanding drag and drop File Manager offered by the Hepsia webspace hosting Control Panel will probably render the use of any File Transfer Protocol client futile. Our (kabisigcreditunion.org's) inference is that the dedicated servers provided by 'LiveFrog' don't seem to be very inexpensive (yet the Hepsia web space hosting Control Panel and the unmetered hosted domain name quotas will definitely make you smile), beginning from $145.00 for the Xeon Scalable 8c package.
