By hosting a site on our VPS servers, the data is guaranteed to be on NVMe disks, which, together with the latest processors and operating systems, provide maximum performance.
For the site to work quickly, your server must be configured for the platform you have chosen, we have collected all the necessary configurations that you can easily select with one click.
Magento server set up.
Over the past period of work with Magento, all the necessary changes have been detected and made for the most efficient interaction of the site with the server. Check the speed and convenience by hosting the site at the best rate.
Regular hardware updates ensure high speed and uninterrupted operation.
Every day, automatic backups of your data are performed and stored on a separate disk. This gives maximum security to your data and protects against accidental data loss due to normal deletion or technical failures.
Magento is used to develop online stores, so in this case, parsing protection plays an important role. Implemented such protection systems as Layer 7 and a limit on the number of requests, there is also protection against malicious bots.

## Prices for Cloud Hosting
> Zahid-Host Cloud Hosting from $20/month — SLA up to 99.95%, scalability, CDN, backups and 24/7 support. Perfect for businesses of any size.
Cloud hosting is a type of web hosting that allows you to easily scale your project, distribute the load and maximize uptime. Regular control and monitoring allows you to allocate the necessary resources in a timely manner, or make a quick transfer to servers with free capacity. This means that even if one server is under heavy load, the project is transferred to another server, and everything continues to work.
Cloud hosting is a modern web hosting solution that ensures maximum flexibility, scalability, and reliability for your online projects. Unlike traditional shared hosting, where all websites share the same physical server, cloud hosting is based on a network of interconnected virtual and physical servers. This architecture allows resources—such as CPU, RAM, and storage—to be allocated dynamically according to the actual needs of your website or application.
Key Advantages of Cloud Hosting for Your Business
With cloud hosting, you can easily scale your project up or down at any time. For example, if your online store experiences a surge in traffic during sales or holiday seasons, additional resources can be allocated instantly, preventing downtime and maintaining high performance. Conversely, when demand decreases, resources can be reduced, optimizing your hosting costs. This pay-as-you-go model ensures that you only pay for what you actually use.
Scalability and Resource Optimization
Load balancing is another key advantage of cloud hosting. If one server experiences heavy load, your website or application is automatically transferred to another server with available capacity. This process is seamless, meaning visitors will not notice any interruptions. This feature is especially important for businesses that rely on their websites being online 24/7, as it minimizes the risk of service outages.
High Availability and Uptime Guarantee
Advanced monitoring and management tools allow system administrators to track resource usage in real time. Automatic alerts and performance analytics help detect potential issues early, allowing for timely adjustments before they affect website availability. Combined with proactive maintenance, this ensures that your project runs smoothly and efficiently.
Security Features and Data Protection
Security is also a top priority in cloud hosting. Data is stored redundantly across multiple servers, which reduces the risk of data loss due to hardware failures. Regular backups, firewall protection, DDoS mitigation, and SSL encryption provide additional layers of defense for your website and sensitive customer information.

## Cloud Dedicated Server (VPC)
> A cloud dedicated server provides a high-performance, secure, and scalable solution that meets the computing needs of businesses, without the hassle of managing a physical dedicated server.
In today's world, businesses of all sizes require high-performance computing resources to support their operations. Whether you're running a small startup or a large enterprise, having a reliable and powerful server is crucial to your success. One option that has gained popularity in recent years is a cloud dedicated server.
A cloud dedicated server is a type of server that provides dedicated resources to a business while running on a cloud infrastructure. It means that you get all the advantages of a physical dedicated server, but without the overhead and hassle of managing it yourself. With a cloud dedicated server, you can easily scale up or down your resources as per your business requirements.
When it comes to a cloud dedicated server, architecture and optimization are critical components to consider. A well-designed architecture can help ensure that your server is performing optimally, while optimization can help you get the most out of your resources.
Architecture refers to the design and structure of your cloud dedicated server. A well-designed architecture should take into account factors such as load balancing, failover, and redundancy. Load balancing ensures that your server is evenly distributing traffic to prevent overload, while failover provides a backup in case of a server failure. Redundancy means having multiple components to ensure high availability and reliability.
In addition to architecture, optimization is also critical for ensuring your server is running efficiently. Optimization refers to the process of configuring your server to make the most of the available resources. This can include setting up caching, compression, and other performance-enhancing tools. Optimization can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster response times and better performance.
There are several optimization techniques that our company applied to a cloud-dedicated server. These include:
Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) - A CDN is a distributed network of servers that delivers content to users from the closest server. Using a CDN can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster load times and improved performance.
Server caching - Caching involves storing frequently accessed data in memory, reducing the time it takes to retrieve data from the server. By using server caching, you can reduce the load on your server and improve performance.
Compression - Compressing data can reduce the amount of data that needs to be transmitted between the server and the client, resulting in faster load times.
Database optimization - Optimizing your database can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster response times. This can include techniques such as indexing, database partitioning, and query optimization.
In conclusion, when it comes to a cloud dedicated server, architecture and optimization are critical components that can help ensure that your server is running efficiently and effectively. A well-designed architecture and optimization techniques can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster response times and improved performance. When selecting a cloud dedicated server, it's essential to consider both architecture and optimization to ensure that you're getting the most out of your resources.

Optimizing servers for e-commerce websites
E-commerce websites are a critical component of the modern economy, with millions of people using them every day to buy products and services. As such, it is essential that these websites are fast, responsive, and reliable.
One of the key reasons for optimizing servers for e-commerce websites is to ensure that they can handle high levels of traffic. E-commerce websites can experience significant spikes in traffic, particularly during peak shopping seasons such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Another reason for optimizing servers for e-commerce websites is to improve website speed. Optimizing servers can help to reduce page load times, improve website performance, and enhance the user experience.

The main advantage of our hosting for WordPress is fine tuning of the server for a specific type of CMS.
The WordPress server must be powerful enough, as a content management system for any e-commerce solution is quite heavy.
Dedicated servers are a costly solution, as they require maintenance in addition to rent,
and integration of additional new systems and technologies requires significant costs.
To solve such problems, we created a VPS server based on cloud technologies that minimize costs,
enable scaling, and easy integration of new solutions.
We offer a wide range of hosting services for clients with resource-intensive projects.
Hosting for WordPress is basically no different from other PHP systems, but, like any business product,
it requires a particularly careful approach to ensure comfortable and reliable site operation,
since, first of all, any problem on the site automatically brings losses to their owners.
It all starts with choosing a hardware platform that meets the requirements: reliable communication channels, a fast disk system,
latest-generation processors, and a large amount of RAM. Using a self-developed server management system,
we implement advanced and interesting solutions that provide speed and optimization of both the backend of the interpreter and the frontend part.
Thanks to the use of CDN in the service package, fast connection and delivery of static content are ensured.
Our basic system of protection against bots and DDOS attacks, although it is not the most advanced on the market, it copes with most attacks, it is constantly improved,
and, most importantly, the service is provided free of charge to all users.

## Cloud hosting for OpenCart and OcStore
> Host Your Open-Cart Online Store on Secure, Powerful and Super Fast OpenCart Hosting Servers! Speed, Security, & Scalability for Open-Cart Hosting & Management That Elevates eCommerce
The main advantage of our hosting for OpenCart is the fine-tuning of the server for a specific type of CMS. Dedicated servers are quite a costly solution since, apart from renting, they need maintenance, in the event of a failure, a lot of time is spent on restoring the system, and the integration of additional new systems and technologies requires considerable costs. To solve such problems, we have created cloud-based VPS servers that not only minimize costs but also provide an opportunity to scale and easily integrate new solutions.
We offer a wide range of hosting services for clients with resource-intensive projects.
Hosting for OpenCart, as well as the online store platform itself, was built on the MVC principle, which supports the multitasking and scalability of online stores. CMS is quite versatile and easy to administer, OpenCart has tools for working with dynamic data, such as the ability to install Google Analytics for a user without affecting the code, and much more.
CMS is suitable for the self-development of an online store if you have experience in the work of PHP and MySQL. How to install OpenCart on a hosting service - our specialists will help you in this case, while monitoring the operation of your website absolutely free of charge. OpenCart CMS is popular not only abroad, but also in the domestic market development sites. For this CMS developed a lot of modules, add-ons, and plug-ins. Our experience has shown that the main advantages of hosting for OpenCart when working with this CMS are: the ability to integrate electronic payment systems on the site and currency conversion; a large number of additional improvements, with the help of which you can extend the functionality of the e-commerce site; there is own reporting system, which is very convenient for the user; OpenCart is well structured, which allows to increase the speed of information processing and work faster.
Our technical department specialists, when installing OpenCart to host this type of CMS, will be able to select and configure server settings, optimize the performance of your online store and reduce the download time of the site as a whole. When choosing a plan and services, we recommend taking into account the features of CMS: it will not be possible to switch to the new version automatically and there will be a need to completely transfer all information manually. Our technical department will help in solving this situation, which will allow you to save the cost of your time and resources.
We offer both ready-made hosting solutions for OpenCart, as well as developing solutions for individual requirements of e-commerce sites of our clients.

## Prices for Cloud Hosting
> Zahid-Host Cloud Hosting from $20/month — SLA up to 99.95%, scalability, CDN, backups and 24/7 support. Perfect for businesses of any size.
Cloud hosting is a type of web hosting that allows you to easily scale your project, distribute the load and maximize uptime. Regular control and monitoring allows you to allocate the necessary resources in a timely manner, or make a quick transfer to servers with free capacity. This means that even if one server is under heavy load, the project is transferred to another server, and everything continues to work.
What Is Cloud Hosting and How It Works
Cloud hosting is a modern web hosting solution that ensures maximum flexibility, scalability, and reliability for your online projects. Unlike traditional shared hosting, where all websites share the same physical server, cloud hosting is based on a network of interconnected virtual and physical servers. This architecture allows resources—such as CPU, RAM, and storage—to be allocated dynamically according to the actual needs of your website or application.
Key Advantages of Cloud Hosting for Your Business
With cloud hosting, you can easily scale your project up or down at any time. For example, if your online store experiences a surge in traffic during sales or holiday seasons, additional resources can be allocated instantly, preventing downtime and maintaining high performance. Conversely, when demand decreases, resources can be reduced, optimizing your hosting costs. This pay-as-you-go model ensures that you only pay for what you actually use.
Scalability and Resource Optimization
Load balancing is another key advantage of cloud hosting. If one server experiences heavy load, your website or application is automatically transferred to another server with available capacity. This process is seamless, meaning visitors will not notice any interruptions. This feature is especially important for businesses that rely on their websites being online 24/7, as it minimizes the risk of service outages.
High Availability and Uptime Guarantee
Advanced monitoring and management tools allow system administrators to track resource usage in real time. Automatic alerts and performance analytics help detect potential issues early, allowing for timely adjustments before they affect website availability. Combined with proactive maintenance, this ensures that your project runs smoothly and efficiently.
Security Features and Data Protection
Security is also a top priority in cloud hosting. Data is stored redundantly across multiple servers, which reduces the risk of data loss due to hardware failures. Regular backups, firewall protection, DDoS mitigation, and SSL encryption provide additional layers of defense for your website and sensitive customer information.
Zahid-Host Cloud Hosting Plans and Prices
Zahid-Host offers cloud hosting plans tailored for projects of all sizes—from personal blogs and small business websites to large e-commerce platforms and enterprise-level applications. Our plans include a guaranteed SLA of up to 99.95%, ensuring maximum uptime for your project. With features such as free website migration, integrated CDN for faster global content delivery, and 24/7 technical support, we provide a hosting environment that grows with your business.
Why Choose Zahid-Host as Your Cloud Hosting Provider
By choosing cloud hosting from Zahid-Host, you get not just a hosting service, but a reliable technology partner dedicated to keeping your project fast, secure, and always online. Whether you are launching a startup, expanding your online presence, or running a high-traffic platform, our cloud solutions are designed to meet your needs today and scale for your future growth.
## Cloud Dedicated Server (VPC)
> A cloud dedicated server provides a high-performance, secure, and scalable solution that meets the computing needs of businesses, without the hassle of managing a physical dedicated server.
In today's world, businesses of all sizes require high-performance computing resources to support their operations. Whether you're running a small startup or a large enterprise, having a reliable and powerful server is crucial to your success. One option that has gained popularity in recent years is a cloud dedicated server.
A cloud dedicated server is a type of server that provides dedicated resources to a business while running on a cloud infrastructure. It means that you get all the advantages of a physical dedicated server, but without the overhead and hassle of managing it yourself. With a cloud dedicated server, you can easily scale up or down your resources as per your business requirements.
Why you should implement our Cloud Dedicated Server architecture?
When it comes to a cloud dedicated server, architecture and optimization are critical components to consider. A well-designed architecture can help ensure that your server is performing optimally, while optimization can help you get the most out of your resources.
Architecture refers to the design and structure of your cloud dedicated server. A well-designed architecture should take into account factors such as load balancing, failover, and redundancy. Load balancing ensures that your server is evenly distributing traffic to prevent overload, while failover provides a backup in case of a server failure. Redundancy means having multiple components to ensure high availability and reliability.
In addition to architecture, optimization is also critical for ensuring your server is running efficiently. Optimization refers to the process of configuring your server to make the most of the available resources. This can include setting up caching, compression, and other performance-enhancing tools. Optimization can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster response times and better performance.
There are several optimization techniques that our company applied to a cloud-dedicated server. These include:
Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) - A CDN is a distributed network of servers that delivers content to users from the closest server. Using a CDN can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster load times and improved performance.
Server caching - Caching involves storing frequently accessed data in memory, reducing the time it takes to retrieve data from the server. By using server caching, you can reduce the load on your server and improve performance.
Compression - Compressing data can reduce the amount of data that needs to be transmitted between the server and the client, resulting in faster load times.
Database optimization - Optimizing your database can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster response times. This can include techniques such as indexing, database partitioning, and query optimization.
In conclusion, when it comes to a cloud dedicated server, architecture and optimization are critical components that can help ensure that your server is running efficiently and effectively. A well-designed architecture and optimization techniques can help reduce the load on your server, resulting in faster response times and improved performance. When selecting a cloud dedicated server, it's essential to consider both architecture and optimization to ensure that you're getting the most out of your resources.

## CDN map from Zahid-Host company or what opportunities do clients get with more coverage?
> All about our CDN coverage
We will consider the following questions in this article:
CDN Coverage Map, What Is It;
What are CDNs Used for;
Why does Zahid.Host Expand the Coverage Map Constantly;
What Opportunities Do Clients Get With a Big CDN Card;
In Which Countries Do We Have Our CDN Servers.
CDN coverage map, what is it?
A CDN map is an image of the locations of our CDN servers around the world. At the moment we have more than 30 servers around the world, and their number is constantly growing.
What is CDN used for?
CDN is needed to quickly receive data from the server to the client. Your main server, on which you have placed your website, may be far away, the user, who went to your site, will first receive a cached copy of your website from the nearest CDN server, and then the main part of it, from the main server respectively. Thus, the website loading is much faster.
You can find more about this process in another article on our website called “What is a CDN? Why is it needed? What gives its use? "
Why is Zahid.Host constantly expanding the coverage map?
The CDN network is expanding for one reason only, and this is the download speed. Users, who are close to the CDN server, receive the cache almost instantly, and visitors from remote locations wait for the cache longer, respectively, and the website loading is slower. The conclusion is that: the more points with CDN servers, then faster visitors from the whole world will load your website. That's why we are trying in every way to expand our CDN map.
What opportunities do customers get with a large CDN map?
Capability means loading speed, but a lot depends on it. From just comfortable working with the website, to the point that search engines will find your site faster and put it on the first lines, which of course will significantly add the number of your visitors.
In which countries do we have our own CDN servers?

## About the Project
Zahid.Host, a company operating in the market of network technologies since 2010, is developing a system for automating the management of server-based systems oriented to e-commerce sites. Currently, our efforts are aimed at integrating such CMSs as CS-Cart and WordPress (WooCommerce), which work under high load conditions requiring high availability or a geo-distributed client base. In addition to our own approach to software optimization, we focus on hardware and hardware to meet the high requirements of our customers
The web hosting market is widely presented and does not require clarification of its functionality, but to understand the differences and advantages of our solutions, the following features can be distinguished:
Close integration under a specific platform: for each of the CMS selected optimal database parameters, graduations for different situational needs are developed.
Responsive technical support aimed at maximizing the comfort of using our services Subtle optimization of the program part, depending on each project, additional parameters can be selected Build your own CDN network to optimize the speed of delivery of content to the end-user
Scaling projects as needed for minimizing end-user costs
Selection of the most effective hardware
A clear understanding of the problem areas associated with project maintenance on supported platforms, as well as the availability of tools for solving complex and non-standard situations.
Our server resources are divided into two groups: Backend where data processing and Frontend server are actually used, which are used for caching, balancing, and protecting sites against attacks.
Backend servers represent a complex set of interconnected and consistently functioning software and hardware components located in geo-distributed data centers in Germany, the USA, and Finland.
Frontend servers have both wider geographic distribution and duplication of servers by data centers from different countries to ensure maximum availability in case of interruptions in connection with one of them. The network is regularly evolving and currently, servers in 30 countries are used in 50 data centers.
In the near future, we will publish a detailed map with available servers and their statuses online.
Awards
Thank you very much for your feedback, we hope for further support, as well as suggestions to improve our services.
## What should I use, Apache or Nginx?
To answer on this question, you need to parse them separately
To answer on this question, you need to parse them separately.
Apache - was created in 1995, already in 1996 it was the most popular in the world. The main advantages are strong documentation and integration with a host, more flexibility, reliability, power and wide prevalence. One of the main drawbacks in Apache is the lack of a graphical user interface for configuration, and configuration files must be edited manually.
Nginx - released in 2004. It’s designed to support 10,000 simultaneous connections, with which it manages. The advantages of Nginx include: easy placement with minimal characteristics and performance on it, simplicity, speed and fault durability. The big minus in Nginx is the lack of built-in PHP, it can be fixed using a PHP connection through a special FastCGI interface (a separate client-server protocol).
What are the main differences between thease web servers?
Apache uses a branched multi-threaded solution, in other words, it communicates with each client individually. Nginx does the same, it uses a nonblocking event loop, if it is easier, then it unites users who work asynchronously.
Why we use Nginx?
Since our hosting is designed to support professional sites, the speed of loading the site and its stability under heavy load is important to us. And Nginx creates one thread, and immediately processes it, without creating unnecessary processes. Because the load on the servers is not so great. The less the load on the server will be lower, the more it will stands.
## Boost your PrestaShop site with a cloud VPS server
> Learn how a cloud VPS server can improve your PrestaShop site's performance and security. Find the right VPS hosting solution to fit your needs and budget
This technical guide provides a comprehensive overview of optimizing PrestaShop hosting to improve online store performance. Covering topics such as server location, RAM and CPU resources, caching and CDN integration, Gzip compression, security, and image optimization, the guide offers practical solutions to technical challenges. The guide is suitable for online store owners, web developers, and hosting providers looking to improve their knowledge of PrestaShop hosting optimization.
As a PrestaShop hosting service provider, we understand that the speed and performance of your online store are critical to your business's success. In this technical guide, we will dive into the details of optimizing your PrestaShop store's speed and performance, covering a range of topics including server location, RAM and CPU resources, caching and CDN integration, Gzip compression, security, and more.
Server Location
The location of your server can have a significant impact on the speed of your online store. That's why we offer servers located in different regions, so you can choose a server that's closest to your target audience. This can minimize latency and improve site speed, leading to a better user experience for your customers.
The closer your server is to your target audience, the faster your site will load for them. This is because data has to travel a shorter distance between the server and the user, resulting in less latency. In addition, having a server in a specific region can help with SEO, as search engines prioritize websites that are hosted in the same region as the user.
RAM and CPU Resources
The amount of RAM and CPU resources your server has can significantly impact your site's speed and performance. At our hosting service, we offer cloud servers with varying levels of RAM and CPU resources to meet your site's traffic and processing needs. We also offer the option to upgrade your resources as your business grows, ensuring your site's speed and performance remain optimized.
When choosing a cloud hosting for Prestashop, you should consider your site's traffic and processing needs. If your site has high traffic or requires a lot of processing power, you may need a server with more RAM and CPU resources. On the other hand, if your site has low traffic or requires less processing power, you may be able to use a server with fewer resources.
Caching and CDN Integration
Caching and Content Delivery Network (CDN) integration are powerful tools for improving your site's speed and performance. At our hosting service, we offer built-in caching and CDN integration with our cloud hosting plans, which can significantly improve site speed and reduce page load times.
Caching is the process of storing frequently accessed data in memory to reduce the amount of time it takes to retrieve that data. By using caching, your site can load faster, as the server doesn't have to retrieve the same data repeatedly. We offer server-side caching, which is more efficient than client-side caching, as it caches data at the server level.
CDNs work by caching your site's content on a network of servers located around the world. When a user requests your site, the CDN serves the content from the server that is closest to the user, reducing the amount of time it takes for the content to reach the user. This can significantly improve site speed, especially for users who are located far away from your server.
Gzip Compression
Gzip compression is a simple yet effective way to improve your site's speed and performance. Gzip compresses files on your server, reducing their size and the amount of time it takes to transmit them to the user. This can result in faster page load times and a better user experience.
At our hosting service, we offer built-in Gzip compression, which compresses HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files on your server. This can significantly reduce the size of these files, leading to faster page load times. Gzip compression is a simple yet effective way to improve your site's speed and performance, and it's easy to implement.
Security
Security is a critical concern for online stores. That's why we offer robust security features, such as firewalls and regular backups, to protect your site from potential threats. Our servers are regularly updated with the latest security patches and are monitored 24/7 to ensure your site is always secure.
In addition to our built-in security features, we also recommend implementing additional security measures to protect your site. Some measures you can take include:
Keeping your PrestaShop software up to date: Regularly updating your PrestaShop software can help fix security vulnerabilities and ensure your site is running the latest version with the most updated security patches.
Using strong passwords: Using strong and unique passwords for your site's admin accounts can help prevent unauthorized access to your site.
Implementing HTTPS: HTTPS is a secure protocol that encrypts data between the server and the user's browser. Implementing HTTPS can help protect your site's data from potential threats, such as man-in-the-middle attacks.
Regularly backing up your site: Regularly backing up your site's data can help you recover in case of a security breach or other issue that could cause data loss.
Optimizing Your Images
Images are an essential part of any online store, but they can also slow down your site's speed if not optimized correctly. Optimizing your images can significantly improve your site's speed and performance. Here are some tips for optimizing your images:
Resize your images: Resize your images to the appropriate size for their intended use on your site. For example, if you're using an image in a thumbnail, you don't need to use a large image.
Compress your images: Compressing your images can reduce their file size, leading to faster page load times. You can use image compression tools, such as TinyPNG or Kraken.io, to compress your images.
Use the appropriate file type: Use the appropriate file type for your images. For example, use JPEGs for photographs and PNGs for graphics and logos.
Conclusion
In conclusion, optimizing your PrestaShop store's speed and performance is essential to your online store's success. By considering factors such as server location, RAM and CPU resources, caching and CDN integration, Gzip compression, security, and image optimization, you can significantly improve your site's speed and performance. As a PrestaShop hosting service provider, we offer a range of technical solutions to help you optimize your site's speed and performance. Contact us today to learn more about our hosting solutions and how we can help you take your online store to the next level.
## What is HTTP/2 protocol?
> Why is the new protocol better than the old one and how much faster is it?
What is HTTP/2 protocol?
First, let's look at what the HTTP protocol is. This is a data transfer protocol, which was originally intended for the transfer of hypertext.
HTTP/2 is an improved HTTP protocol, this is the new version.
What is HTTP/2 protocol?
First, let's look at what the HTTP protocol is. This is a data transfer protocol, which was originally intended for the transfer of hypertext.
HTTP/2 is an improved HTTP protocol, this is the new version.
Why the HTTP / 2 protocol was created?
Since HTTP was created a long time ago, in 1991, for this time of existence, it was only a few times subjected to global changes. The latest version of HTTP 1.1 was released in 1997, during this time this protocol was obsolete and in 2015, HTTP/2 was created. It improved the main three indicators - simplicity, high productivity and sustainability.
Should I enter it?
The download speed in HTTP/2 compared to HTTP 1.1 increased by 23%, according to HttpWatch experts. The new version of the protocol sends the content not in parts but immediately together, except that it already exists in the browser cache. As improvements, stream monitoring mechanisms, error handling and upgrade are used. They give more application stability and faster download speed.
Why does http 2 protocols better than the old one?
Modern sites, unlike old ones, use many elements that were transmitted over several connections in the old version of the HTTP protocol, which slowed the download speed. In HTTP/2, everything is sent through a single TCP connection, and there is no need to keep multiple TCP connections.
Added the ability to set the priority of sending data, user can tell the server which files to send first.
Added the ability to Push-send data from the server, in other words, the server sends the user only those data that he doesn’t have yet.

Why is it worth using our hosting, if you have one, or will there be a website on one of these CMS?
Zahid.Host, unlike other host providers, has a small list of CMS, but this is our advantage. Since it's good to configure the server for a large number of CMS is impossible. Because different engines require different settings, and working together isn't entirely correct. That's, the fewer of them, the better and more harmoniously the server will work. Our hosting is well tailored to the CMS data, and they are ideal for hosting your site.
Also, experts from cs-cart.ru, recently made an analysis on the best hosting providers of this CMS. Our Zahid.Host has entered the top three best VPS hosting sites. See more in detail here.

Is there a difference between cloud-based virtual hosting and VPS?
Yes, there is a difference - in the placement of your site. If it will host on VPS hosting, its resources could be taken by other sites that are also on this machine. Similarly, your site, at peak points, can take resources from other sites. Cloud virtual hosting is completely separated from the rest, and it gives resources that you ordered. The last service is more expensive than the previous one.
How to choose the right plan?
Choose a plan should be in accordance with the number of visitors per day:
- StartUP is optimal for 500 visitors per day in peak loads can handle and more than 1000;
- Base is optimal for 1000-2000 visitors;
- Intermediate - from 2000 visitors;
- Enterprise - from 5000 visitors.
How can I understood that the resources on the plan aren’t enough, and it's time to order better?
You can understand this from the number of maximum visitors specified above, and disk space. If it's crowded or visitors become more then recommended, you can choose the new plan for better work, but don't rush, it's better to write to support. Since the load problem may not be in the number of visitors, or space, but in the code itself. Our experts will find ways to optimize the code and advise you the best choice.
How to transfer the site to our hosting?
On this issue you need to contact our support. Our specialists will transfer your site for free and make the best settings for it. This process takes approximately 1 hour, and from 1 to 24 hours to change the IP of the DNS servers (depends on the operator).

## Optimization of the online store, or his own admin
Each of the online storeowners seeks to optimize and improve the work of its resource, to provide the potential buyer with the best opportunities to buy goods or services. Of course, not every one of them owns hidden programming skills and parse the code in parts to optimize it. At the initial stages, when the online store isn’t promoted yet and doesn’t carry the desired profit, it can be difficult to have a qualified specialist on staff for the smooth operation of the resource on the selected CMS. We will try to open the doors to optimize and increase productivity, in simple ways that will be available to each of us
Each of the online storeowners seeks to optimize and improve the work of its resource, to provide the potential buyer with the best opportunities to buy goods or services. Of course, not every one of them owns hidden programming skills and parse the code in parts to optimize it. At the initial stages, when the online store isn’t promoted yet and doesn’t carry the desired profit, it can be difficult to have a qualified specialist on staff for the smooth operation of the resource on the selected CMS. We will try to open the doors to optimize and increase productivity, in simple ways that will be available to each of us.
Let's try to analyze and understand how to use simple actions to improve the work of the online store, to optimize code if you have basic programming knowledge and how to compress images to improve the productivity and resource performance, increase the download speed and speed of the site. What or how to do independently check the work of the online store, detect and correct difficulties in the work of the site.
Let's start with the most basic parameter and requirements of each of us, namely how to improve the work of the website, without making great efforts and expenses of finance and time.
Our experience with projects of varying complexity suggests that to improve the load on your site, you should take care of the CDN network. Regardless, whether you own a small online store or a resource with a large number of goods and services, sooner or later you will connect with the issue of increasing the speed of loading your website to deliver content to the user at times faster. When you are choosing a hosting provider, we recommend to pay attention to provide a full range of services and to the cost and basic characteristics, we don’t think about additional services that you have to pay for in order to ensure the speed of your site.
For example, we, as a hosting provider, provide all clients without exception to automatically connect to CDN servers immediately after purchasing a plan and regardless of the size of your project, you get this service, which allows you to increase the speed of downloading files and display information to your client faster. The information is already distributed on such servers. Thus, the load on the primary processing server is lower, the speed of the website increases from the very beginning, financial costs for the CDN network services are not required, and the speed of display and download of your online store files increases.
A convenient and simple way to optimize the work of the site will be the inclusion of caching the site on the user's device. When you first download, the main files of your online store will be saved in the user's browser, and when it’s re-loaded, the site loading will be much faster than the first one, which of course will lead to less time loss for the user.
If you are still using the old security protocol (HTTP), and have thought about the performance of your website, it’s time for you to upgrade to its new version, namely HTTPS.
Almost all new websites work on it, and their download speed exceeds the maximum from HTTP. The basic principle of its work is to send all the files of the website, in one stream, rather than creating several, like its predecessor. This significantly speeds up the site’s download speed, and more importantly for an online store, increases its security, this is important, although today we’re not talking about that, and yet, if you’ve been thinking about the site’s security, then we will advise you pay also attention to the material dedicated to this section on our website.
A very good tool for optimizing online store operation is Google PageSpeed. Which analyzes the speed of loading your site, and gives excellent advice on its acceleration, also carries out basic analysis and gives recommendations that will be easy to implement and improve the work of the site. We now turn to code optimization.
Immediately, the very first advice from us will be, if you are not confident in your abilities, and you don’t really understand the code itself, its construction and meaning, DO NOT try to change something in it, according to the instructions of users in the forums, or any instructions found in the Internet. It is better to contact an experienced specialist, who already has extensive experience in setting up and optimizing the site and not spend a lot of time, money and effort.
If you are an experienced user, and are guided in the code of your site and worked with this type of CMS, first make backup files, later begin to optimize the code, first checking it for errors.
If you look at the points, let's start with HTML.
To optimize the code, you should do these simple steps:
Compression gaps;
Reducing the amount of content at the top of the page code;
Preliminary DNS rezolving;
Deletion of the domain from the URL in the href and src attributes.
Now move on to optimizing CSS code.
Combine all CSS in one file;
Minify CSS;
Moving CSS to the HEAD section;
Moving files with CSS styles in front of JavaScript scripts;
Transfer small style descriptions to HTML.
We optimize JavaScript codes.
Combine all javascript into one file;
Minimize JavaScript.
Several items have already been entered, the difference in the work of the site is already noticeable and you can go to its visual part, where the speed and loading speed is hidden, namely compress the pictures, for faster loading of the page and its elements.
Compressing images is a very important process in optimizing an online store, because we need to get a little weighing image with good quality. This will help us a variety of programs and services. From us, I would like to advise "Compressor".
This is a free service where you can compress an image up to 90%. Of the minuses, this is only a limit of 10MB, and image formats. Speaking of formats, there are only two of them here, .jpg, .png, which are most often used in website design. There are also many other services if you do not like this one. The main goal is good quality and low image weight.
You ask, why do you need to compress images?
Everything is simple, the smaller the weight of the image, the faster it will load. And judging by how people browse sites, their main attention is focused on pictures, not on text. Since the image is faster on the eyes, and faster analyzed. With the help of pictures, you can quickly get to the first lines in search engines, which will increase the popularity of your site or online store.
Diagnostics of the site, perhaps the most important of all the above points. Because without it, we can learn little about, and then decide which way to go, optimizing the site. For this, it would be best to use “developers.google.com” from Google, which analyzes the site well, for its download speed and overall performance. Gives good advice on optimizing the entire site, and speeding up its work, as well as providing its assessment. You can use any such service convenient for you, basically, they will show you the same problems.
If you need advice and walk in more detail to optimize the online store, you can contact our experts from Zahid-Host and we will show you how to increase the speed and attract more users to your site with simple efforts.
## What is the difference between web hosting in the CIS countries, Europe, and America? What are their pluses and minuse.
> Why do our hostels are so inferior to foreign ones?
Today, modern technologies allow access to many opportunities, some of them are foreign hosting providers, but is everything as good as it seems at first glance, are they suitable for the CIS countries? Answers to these and other questions will be discussed below
Today, modern technologies allow access to many opportunities, some of them are foreign hosting providers, but is everything as good as it seems at first glance, are they suitable for the CIS countries? Answers to these and other questions will be discussed below.
Let’s see, what is web hosting?
Web hosting - it's possible to say a special computer where the data of the sites are located. They are stored there for a reason, and to maintain constant access to the site.
The first hosting started to appear in USA, because they are most developed there, then USA appeared in highly developed European countries, and finally in the CIS countries.
USA Hosting
Pros:
- High stability;
- A wide range of different services (there are a HUGE amount of them);
- Less good support (there are a lot of customers, therefore, support isn’t at the highest level);
- High speed internet;
- Use of new technologies;
- Relatively low prices (low, for most Americans);
Minuses:
- Language barrier (in other language then english you can’t speak there);
- Great response time of the site (because of the distance);
- Problems with payment (you need to pay by Visa or Master Card);
European Hosting
Pros:
- High stability;
- Very good support;
- High speed internet;
- Use of new technologies;
- Low prices;
- Partial knowledge of other language then english language;
Minuses:
- Language barrier (only part of the hosting will help you in other language then english);
- Average response time of the site (the distance is still not small, but not so large);
- Problems with payment (you need to pay by Visa or Master Card);
CIS Hosting
Pros:
- High stability (there are exceptions);
- Average Internet speed (sometimes high);
- Use of new technologies;
- There is no language barrier;
- There are no problems with payment;
- Fast response time of the site;
Minuses:
- Support level is low enough (there are exceptions);
- High price;
Now we will sum up all this
Since such web services appeared for the first time in USA, it undoubtedly leads in the quality of its services, but if you live in the CIS countries, this is not the best choice. A great response time of the site, and many other problems will not allow you to create a professional website. Many users will experience quite a lot of discomfort due to the speed of page loading.
A good choice will be several European hosting, but there will be as many problems with them as well. The best choice after all is our web hosting. Although the price isn’t small, and support isn’tt always well put to the client (there are not a few good supports, but most are in rather bad condition), for visitors to your site, this is the best option.
## GEO-DNS, what is it used for, how can you speed up the site in conjunction with CDN?
> How the site accelerates using GEO-DNS
DNS is a server where store all domains and IP addresses of sites. Domain is the name of your site, for example, google.com or zahid.host. The IP address is a combination of 4 digits separated by a period, for example: 111.111.111.111
What is DNS?
DNS is a server where store all domains and IP addresses of sites. Domain is the name of your site, for example, google.com or zahid.host. The IP address is a combination of 4 digits separated by a period, for example: 111.111.111.111.
What are the DNS servers used for?
To get to the site, you need to know IP address, but it's inconvenient, because you should remember the name of a site, it’s easier than remember a combination of numbers. That's why there are DNS servers.
When you navigate through a domain, your browser contacts the nearest DNS server, depending on the domain, issues an IP address, which you can already download the site. Your browser receives the address what you need and loads the page.
What is GEO-DNS for?
Imagine that your site is popular in America and Europe, but DNS servers are only available in Europe. Then users want to enter your site from America will be forced to send a request to the nearest server, and since it’s very far away, it will take a lot of time to wait for the answer. That is, the download site will be very long.
Therefore GEO-DNS servers are exist. When you place a server in America, users will already contact it. The answer will be fast, and this affects the speed of loading your site.
How can you speed up the site with GEO-DNS and CDN?
Imagine the same situation as before, only with an existing DNS server in America. When you go to your domain by a user from America, you will contact the nearest server. It gives you the right IP, after which you will go to the server that contains the content of the site, to receive it, but since servers with content are far away, you will not receive it again quickly. If you place both CDN servers in America that will store cached data, then the download will look like this:
The client browser sends a request to the nearest DNS server;
DNS server sends back the required IP address;
The browser refers to the nearest CDN server and to the main server;
CDN server transfers for cached content to the browser;
While it’s loaded for the cached content from the client, missing files come from the main server;
The full site will download.
In this way, a large amount of time to load the site will reduce, since files from the main server will send much less.
## Should you use different CMS on the same hosting?
> Why is it better not to do this?
CMS is a content management system created from a variety of scripts. It was created to facilitate the administration of the site. Since it has a graphical interface, a person doesn't need the skills of website layout, or knowledge of the programming language
In order to give an answer, first, will we analyze what is a CMS?
CMS is a content management system created from a variety of scripts. It was created to facilitate the administration of the site. Since it has a graphical interface, a person doesn't need the skills of website layout, or knowledge of the programming language.
One of the most popular and simple CMS is WordPress and Joomla.
The main question: Should I use different CMS on the same hosting?
It's not recommended to host different CMS on the one hosting. Because they will not work (depends on the CMS that you put), or they will work, but not correct. The reason for this may be different versions of PHP modules, because different versions of these modules are required for different CMS. Therefore, there will be a conflict between them.
## What is a DDoS attack? How does Nginx handle them?
> What are the objectives of the DDoS attack? How to see that your site is under attack?
This is a very large number of requests sent to the server in a short period. Requests can be use of your site, such as opening web pages, pictures, and other similar elements, that's just not very effective. To do the most harm, it need to find a vulnerability in your site, one of it can be the registration. That is why most popular sites put protection against bots, since the database is quite a vulnerable place
What’s rhat DDOS-attack?
This is a very large number of requests sent to the server in a short period. Requests can be use of your site, such as opening web pages, pictures, and other similar elements, that's just not very effective. To do the most harm, it need to find a vulnerability in your site, one of it can be the registration. That is why most popular sites put protection against bots, since the database is quite a vulnerable place.
What’s purpose of DDOS-attack?
The purpose may have difference, but not much. The main purpose is to give a load to the host machine so that it stops accepting requests from customers, in part, or completely. Here is the difference, DDoS can be used to crack the site data, and then hurt it, or simply load the host so that it will not accept customer requests for a long time, and this will affect it’s popularity, because people don't use the non-working site.
How do I know if a site is under a DDoS attack?
It’s simple. There are several ways to find out. The simplest thing is to open a site, if it doesn’t show parts that aren’t downloaded, such as pictures, or any other elements, there is a possibility that it’s under attack. The site can also hang, load for a long time, or simply not open. It's worth saying that if you notice this, don’t make conclusions, maybe it's not DDoS. You can check it in the second way. For confirmation, you need to see the number of requests from the same IP-addresses, if there are more than the person can leave, when he view your site, they are constantly repeated, most likely this is DDoS-attack.
What are the ways to protect the site using Nginx?
The Nginx web server can manage traffic when it notices a large number of identical requests from the same IP address, it can block them by limiting the number of maximum requests. Then the attack bot can’t be effective. Also one of the decision to combat similar attacks is distribution. It’s used under heavy loads, when one server is overloaded with requests, and can’t respond more. It redirects all remaining requests to the nearest server, and the server, in turn, processes them, and sends it to the user. This is useful in cases of attack from different IP addresses.
## SSL Security Certificates
> What is it? Why and for what use?
SSL (Secure Socket Layer) are security certificates that encrypt data when transferred from a server to a user. It allows you to use the HTTPS protocol. This is a security protocol that will provide you with protection from hackers, hacking and other problems, as your connection from the server will be encrypted. Most often, SSL is used on commercial sites, such as our hosting, when buying or selling goods. In our case, when ordering a plan for your site

Most often, SSL is used on commercial sites, such as our hosting, when buying or selling goods. In our case, when ordering a plan for your site.
Why it should be used on commercial and other sites?
Hackers don’t have much sense hacking a normal user without getting anything from this. Most often they try to take advantage of it. They can redirect money of a regular user who buys something on the Internet, to himself in the wallet. To prevent this we recommend to use SSL certificates.
On regular sites for hackers, your information data, such as name, bank accounts, or even a normal password, can be useful. You should learn it, they will be able to crack something more useful for them (provided that you have the same passwords).
What is the difference between free and paid certificates?
- Security.
When using different certificates (paid and free) they have different security, for example, free certificates don’t guarantee security for the visitor, like the paid one.
- Duration time.
Free certificates are issued for a period of 3 months, after which they require updating. Paid certificate you can be use from 1 to 3 years.
- Price.
Free certificate you can get without spending any money, paid ones cost from about $ 17.
- Appearance.
They have different appearance, it can be seen near the website address. Free most often displayed in green lock. Paid certifecates, in turn, have the name of the organization which this site belongs
- Support of subdomains.
Paid certificates have the ability to support subdomains, in contrast to free ones, which you need to order for each subdomain separately.
## What is CDN? Why is it needed? What gives its use?
> An explanation of how our CDN servers work
CDN (Content Delivery Network) — server network, each server is located in different countries. It’s for accelerated delivery or distribution of static content on your site, such as: images, audio, video and other files
What is CDN?
CDN (Content Delivery Network) — server network, each server is located in different countries. It’s for accelerated delivery or distribution of static content on your site, such as: images, audio, video and other files.
How does work CDN?
You download your content (web-site) in CDN;
This content transfer between local servers of the CDN network;
When user will download this content, he will gain it from the nearest server.
How CDN can help speed up the web-site?
CDN servers are located in different countries. They can contain cached data on your web-site, and when the user be closer to it, the web- site loads quicker and faster it gets the files you need.
Result – data is located as closer as it can to the user it will receive them faster.
What can you receive when you use CDN?
- Increase the speed of download the web-site with a large number of users simultaneously;
- Reducing the risk of DDoS attacks;
- High level stability of the site to bursts of activity;
- Reducing the user's consumed traffic;
- Reduce the load on web hosting;
- Improved search engine ranking.
## The difference between shared hosting and VPS. Why you should VPS? What are the benefits of our hosting?
Normal virtual hosting - hundreds of sites with shared resources are located on one the server, these resources are shared among all customers. In this case, you strongly depend on your “neighbors” in the server, who are not always professional.
- Shared hosting uses resources shared by all users;
- On the virtual hosting it’s difficult to change even the basic settings, and for more complex optimization there are no access rights;
- The task of virtual hosting, basically, provides for cheaper services, rather than ensuring maximum performance.
Dedicated virtual server VPS - autonomous allocated part of the disk space on one physical "machine" (server) and dedicated fixed resources for each user.
Advantages of VPS over regular hosting:
- Shared hosting uses resources shared by all users;
- On the virtual hosting it’s difficult to change even the basic settings, and for more complex optimization there are no means and access rights;
- The task of virtual hosting, basically, provides for cheaper services, rather than ensuring maximum performance.
Why use VPS?
As mentioned above, the VPS has a lot of advantages, which is why it costs more. But it will give you the stability that your visitors need, and various services, including search engines. Unstable sites will not get on the first pages of the search, and therefore there will be less visitors.
What are the benefits of Zahid-Host hosting?
You will receive a comprehensive service with the ability to connect additional ones, and includes:
Optimization for e-commerce sites
At the moment, our servers are optimally configured to work with CS-Cart and WooCommerce, taking into account the basic requirements of the systems. E-commerce sites are complex systems with extensive functionality. Download speed depends mainly on server optimization and the weight of the code. However, the CMS itself contains a large number of modules that affect performance. We do everything to ensure that your websites work as efficiently as possible, and in case of problems, our specialists will help with diagnostics.
Technical support
Our experts are always ready to help you if you have difficulty in additional server settings. In the Base and above plans, free hours of such works are allocated.
Optimization
You will always receive qualified technical support to optimize the server and better configure it for the current download.
Convenient content management system
The server management system is optimized for working with e-commerce sites, taking into account the capabilities supported by CMS.
Implemented a series of defenses against basic DDos attacks.
We have implemented protection against popular bots, namely: SemrushBot, SMTBot, MJ12bot, AhrefsBot, DotBot, Exabot, BomboraBot, SeznamBot. As well as a number of other solutions that we do not disclose, to enhance security.
Test period
You will have time to test the site for a period of 7 days, which will not be taken into account in case of failure
## What is important for online stores when you will place it in the Internet provider?
> Resources, speed, stabil work, protection
- Resources
When you choose a hosting for your online store, first of all, you should pay attention to the resources that are offered. Resources can be selected depending on how many visitors you have per day.
Our rates:
StartUP is optimal for 500 visitors per day;
Base is optimal on sites from 1000-2000 visitors;
Intermediate - from 2000 visitors;
Enterprise - from 5000 visitors.
The first three, work as virtual dedicated servers (VDS / VPS) and the fourth as a dedicated server, with the possibility of combining.
What is the difference between them?
Virtual dedicated servers accommodate several clients with their sites. The resources between them are common so that sometimes they can be smaller than when ordering. Even in peak situations, they can increase. Suitable for online stores of small and medium popularity.
Dedicated servers, in turn, don’t have any other clients. The whole server is available to you. In this case, no one will take resources from you, and they will be completely yours. According to the characteristics, they are many times superior to the previous ones. With a shortage of even such resources, there is the possibility of clustering servers. In other words, combining two or more servers to get more resources. Online
stores work on such bundles rather badly, but we fixed it with our own work.
- Speed downloading of the page
Also, an important characteristic of online stores will be speed. If downloading speed will be faster, then more pleasant it's to browse the catalog of goods on it, to buy them, and in general, just use the site. The download speed affects the location of the user that entered your site. If it will be closer to servers that host your site, the faster it will receive the site content, and the site will load faster. But if the client is far away, we have our own CDN network consisting of more than 30 servers around the world that store cached versions of our clients' sites. Therefore, before receiving dynamic content, the user will receive static (images, text, etc.), and thus the loading of the site will be much faster.
- Stabil work of servers
The availability of your online store is an important indicator. But it directly depends on the ISP. If the servers aren’t stable, they can "fall", and at that time your site will not be available, so you can lose customers that they wanted to buy some product from you. The stability of our servers is at a very high level, and they are constantly available for visitors. If something happens, our specialists will correct this error in a short-time period.
- Protection against DDoS attacks
Protection also plays a big role in such stores. Since shops are always competition, and your competitors will want to get rid of you, to increase their profits. Then various DDoS attacks will be used. But our hosting provides good protection against such attacks, and our client's websites continue to work stably. We use the Nginx web server, which blocks abnormal traffic from the same IP addresses.

## What the difference between HDD, SSD, NVME SSD. Why use the last?
> Why do we use NVMe SSD
What are HDD, SSD, NVMe SSD?
HDD, SSD, NVMe SSD these are the standards of information stores. In other words, these are the hard disks where the data is stored, in our case the data of the clients and their sites.
Let's look at the difference between them
HDD. These drives are old generation, and they haven’t changed since 1990. It works by remagnetizing cells on magnetic plates. They run at 4300, 5400 rpm and at a speed of 60 to 90 MB/s.
Since 2001, some manufacturers begun to make drives from 7200 rpm, this increased the speed of operation to 90 - 120 MB/s. But for good hosting it's not too much.
Among the minuses can be identified:
- Low speed of reading and writing data;
- High noise level;
- High power consumption.
SSD. Drives based on memory chips. Work much faster than the previous ones, namely at 700 - 1100 MB/s. Don’t create noise and vibration. Use much less electricity.
From the minuses can be noted:
- Limited number of read/write cycles (approximately 10,000);
- Inability to recover deleted information.
NVMe SSD. These are the same SSD drives, only they are connected not through the SATA interface, but by PCI Express. The NVMe disk provides a large read-write speed, namely about 3 GB/s. Another feature is its own protocol, developed by Intel, which gives a great performance of disks with a lot of simultaneous requests.
Why should use NVMe SSD?
As it was said before, NVMe SSDs have their own interface, for processing a large number of requests simultaneously, which greatly affects the download speed of the site and its performance. Compared to conventional SSDs, the site load is performed twice as fast (with a conventional SSD of 1.19 seconds, with an NVMe SSD of 0.58 seconds). For professionals of hosting, this can be the big importance.
## What parameters should you look before choosing a hosting company
> And also the parameters of our hosting
10 main characteristics, which usually include in their descriptions are:
- The size of the space allocated to the user on the disk. Includes total space for site files, for e-mail, for databases. Our hosting offers 50 GB on SSD NVMe. Their use will give the execution of a large number of disk operations;
- Number of sites. The number of sites that can be created (placed) on that tariff. We don’t have limits on the number of sites or databases, you are limited only by the tariffs for which you pay;
- The number of databases coincides with the number of sites (one database is one site);
- RAM required for the operation of user scripts. 256 Mb is satisfactory, 512 Mb is good, 1024 Mb is excellent. Our minimum tariff gives 4Gb of RAM, which is 4096 Mb;
- Restriction on the CPU. Characteristics of the host server CPU. It is indicated in kernels or percentages. The number of cores at the minimum plan is 2, at the maximum - 16;
- Number of processes. The number of PHP processes allowed in the account. Cloud hosting differs from the classic ones in that it allocates system resources that aren’t limited on the operator's side, so as a result you get a restriction only in the number of CPUs specified and the amount of RAM;
- The number of mailboxes that can be created on the hosting server. We look for information. If you are planning to actively engage in mailing, it’s worthwhile for the mail to search for a separate server. We don’t provide services with mailboxes, as for e-commerce sites there is a high probability of getting into spam lists. Because all users use external services;
- The limit for sending e-mail messages (the number of messages allowed for sending in 24 hours or per hour). In our plans to launch a mailing list service, now it's not there;
- Price per month/year; The price of the minimum plan becomes 20 $/month, the maximum of 300 $/month;
- Hosting traffic (allowable amount of information to be passed per month). Instead of the amount of restricted traffic, we entered a limit on the number of requests. For the minimum plan - 1 000 000 requests, for the maximum - 50 000 000.
There are also other equally important characteristics like:
Availability FTP access hosting - access the site via FTP. Required hosting parameter, which simplifies the work with the site. We have access to FTP and SFTP/SSH protocols.
Availability of DNS server hosting. There are two types of hosting for managing DNS servers.
- First, oblige the user to register with the registrar the domain names of the DNS server hosting;
- The second, loyal to the placement of DNS servers and may allow you to register DNS servers. There are less such hosters.
We have our own DNS servers that work in Geo DNS mode (each country has its own IP-addresses of servers).
The availability of SSL certification. Virtually all hosting companies don’t show the possibility of SSL certification, if they are paid. If you see an SSL certificate in the hosting services, it means it's free and it's good. Paid certificate costs at least 10$ per month, for each domain;
Free certificate isn’t worth anything and the hosting company can provide such a service if you work with the free certification center, for example, Let's Encrypt. Our hosting provides free SSL certificates, with support for HTTP/2 protocol.
## BackUp every day or once in a month?
> Why do backup need to be done as often as possible?
Together we will sort out in this article whether it worth to do BackUp daily? Should pay attention when choosing a hosting provider to this option? Budget hosting provider doesn't offer such an opportunity, but is it worth it?
BackUp, what is it? Why is it needed? Why is it better to do it every day? Why cheap hosting companies don’t have such services?
BackUp is a copy of your site data and save it in the hosting provider space. We have them done automatically every day. You can restore the site from the backup by contacting the technical support of our hosting.
Why do I need BackUp?
It is needed to restore your site files. This is required if they are damaged in the event of technical work, accidental deletion, with third-party intervention (hacking for example) or malfunction.
Why is BackUp worth doing every day?
Everything is simple, you can be in such a situation that your site is broken due to the reasons listed above, and if you don’t have the necessary backup, you will have to manually restore everything. If you have a large and popular site with a huge database, this is impossible to do (in case of a damaged database). Backups less than one day is also not a good idea. Take for example a backup once a month, this is a very long time, and if something happens to the site after 10-20 days, when the last time a backup was made and a recovery will be required, the users of your resource will feel it, since all their actions in recent days, just damn it.
If you have an online store, this is simply not acceptable.
Why cheap hosting services don't have such services?
They don't have for quite simple reasons. One of them may be the lack of space on the drives. Also, because these are cheap, not quite high-quality hosting, and they don't care about their clients. For technical reasons, such as the absence of a person who would automate this process. One of the main reason is that they don't have clients with large sites, and clients can download backups to their computers without spending much time on it.
## How to improve the work of the online web-store, if you use the cheapest plan with a minimum of services?
> Ways to improve the performance of online stores
Everyone who designed or was engaged in filling the online store was faced with the choice of a hosting provider. Sometimes not only by technical features, but also by the cost of services. In the early stages, the cost of services exceeds the technical literacy of the provider, because you need to quickly "unwind" the online store.
Today we will examine some of the "focuses" that will help to improve the operation of the online store, if you use a budget plan with a minimum of services.
For beginning, let's briefly describe all the points:
Find out what slows down the loading of your web-site;
Optimize the site code;
Use gzip;
Compress images;
Limit the number of items.
Let’s talk more in details about each of them.
Find out what slows down the loading of the web site
You can learn this with the help of a large number of analyzers, both paid and free. One of the freeware is a service from Google, which analyzes your site well, collects the necessary information from it, and gives you the result, as well as suitable tips, to optimize your resource.
Optimize site code
In a code made by an inexperienced typesetter, there may be a lot of unnecessary actions and commands. If you are the owner of such an “art”, and you began to notice that your site has been loading for a long time, perhaps you should pay attention to the code itself. Will appeal to more experienced people. Before that, you can write to our technical support, for clarification.
Use gzip
Gzip is an archiver that is installed in the site code. Before sending files from the server to the user, it compresses (archives) all the files, and then sends them to the client. After the client receives such files, his browser unpacks this archive and loads the already prepared page. Thus, the time to transfer files is reduced, and the load is accelerated.
Compress images
Images can be very large and their transfer of course takes a certain amount of time, which will affect the load and work of your site. For this, you can use, as in the previous case, the code that is installed in the .htaccess file.
Limit the number of items
If you have a lot of elements on your web-site, the load on your equipment will increase, it’s obvious. If you use the minimum fare, you should limit the number of interface elements and various functions, use only the most necessary and useful parts of the site for visitors. All the rest should be either optimized or removed altogether.
## Normal cloud, or private, what to choose?
In this article we will talk about private and ordinary clouds, what is the difference between them? And also we will help you to determine whether it is necessary for you, or you can do without it.
Let's look at what is a regular cloud? This is the part of the server where your site files are stored, with limited resources. In addition to your files, there are also other clients. At peak times, your site can take resources that you didn’t buy, and the site of your “neighbors” on the server can also do it with your resources. Resources are one for all. Because the rent of such a server isn’t worth a lot of money, and they are suitable for small and medium-sized sites with a small attendance.
Now discuss what is a private cloud?
This is almost the same as above, but without co-owners. One or several servers are allocated for your website, on which there is no one else, and accordingly, you get the resources for which you paid money. On account of the price, it’s not small, because such a tariff isn’t suitable for underdeveloped sites that don’t bring much income. But there are also exceptions, which we will talk about later.
What is the difference between a regular cloud and a private one?
All developments and additional services are saved, the only difference is in the server infrastructure that is engaged in data processing;
Payment is made for the server and not the virtual machine, all the resources of dedicated servers are completely yours;
Ability to create infrastructure of any complexity in compressed lines - You need a particularly complex structure of access levels and increased security;
Our experts will help to introduce complex technologies easily and as quickly as possible.
In which case do you need a private cloud?
First of all, the service is focused on large projects when one server can no longer withstand the load and additional resources are needed that will be balanced between several machines. These are the few exceptions that we mentioned above: If you have many different projects on different CMS and you need to quickly deploy, manage or scale and have a predictable result. If you need a complete setup of your server, but the usual settings are not enough.
Can I change server settings?
We can deploy the infrastructure for any customer requirements, ranging from the choice of hardware to the choice of data center.
