Many people thinks that premium hosting doesn’t have much advantage over shared hosting. But in reality it has many advantages over it. And a lot of customers asked us that what is the difference between Normal Web hosting (shared hosting) and Premium Web Hosting like, Premium Windows developer hosting, Premium Unix Hosting etc.

 Shared Hosting:

• Shared hosting means numerous unrelated sites are hosted on one server.
• Shared hosting cannot handle high traffic and is not appropriate for large websites
• Shared hosting is economic in nature.

Premium Hosting:

• In Premium Hosting only few sites are hosted on a powerful server.
• High traffic could be handled easily and it is suitable for large websites and shopping carts.

• It is somewhat expensive than shared hosting but in both the cases you have to pay only according to your usage. Whatever you pay in premium hosting is worth.

Host Department LLC has taken another step to interact with their customers and solve their issues by introducing web hosting forum. We are delighted to announce that by introducing this forum we could be more interactive then we were previously. Ask questions related to your applications etc, with your peers at anytime.

Host Department LLC. introduces Virtual Private Server(VPS) Hosting Plan in both Linux and Windows platforms. The Virtual Private Server (VPS) is designed to be economical, by allowing multiple customers to share the resources of one computer, yet with an extremely high degree of privacy and insulation. The separation is achieved by running a complete separate operating system for each customer.

VPS plan

Find the features of Linux and Windows VPS Hosting Plans below:

Linux VPS Hosting Plan:

VPS customers have “root” level access and can enjoy many of the benefits of a dedicated server, at a much lower cost. VPS is like living in a town house, without the long term house payment!

Host Department is pleased to offer Linux VPS hosting starting with our entry level $13.95 per month plan all the way up through our Enterprise level plans! We use state of the art hosting management software, called Virtuozzo, to implement our VPS environments.

Free Plesk Panel for first month for Linux VPS Hosting Customers.

Windows VPS Hosting Plan:

Windows VPS is ideal for companies and individuals that run high-traffic websites, complex applications or require customized environments that can’t be provided in shared hosting, and yet do not wish to have the overhead cost of dedicated server along with better control over the security. With full of administrative access you can able to manage your own server and fulfill the requirements which a shared hosting can’t offer.

Host Department is pleased to offer Windows VPS hosting for all plans, starting with our entry level $29.95 per month plan all the way up through our Enterprise level plans! We use state of the art hosting management software, called Virtuozzo, to implement our VPS environments.

The expert staff at Host Department always make sure that your virtual server is up and running 99.999% of the time. This is simply because we understand this pretty well that even a minute of downtime can lead to a big business loss for you.

The birth of SOPA has been established through the efforts of the lobbying arms of the studios and labels The MPAA and RIAA.  SOPA or (Stop Online Piracy Act) is in the Senate.

If passed, SOPA will give the Justice Department the ability to shut down almost any blog or website at will, PLUS it will also do absolutely nothing to stop those that pirate movies or music.

sopa must die

James Allworth recently wrote “Is this really what we want to do to the internet? Shut it down every time it doesn’t fit someone’s business model?” and I couldn’t agree more. Censorship is a slippery slope. Not only that but it also creates an absurd amount of bureaucratic busy work. Here at HostGator we already spend a HUGE amount of time answering DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) requests. If we allow our representatives to begin deciding what is and what isn’t ok for you to view on the internet then where will it end?

The bill itself is absurdly broad, creates a ton of liability for small to mid size e-commerce based businesses and will serve to stifle the tech industry in order to cater to lobbying groups paid by companies who refuse to adapt to a world in which free information is king (and almost as unstoppable as a force of nature).

Many Big Companies including Google Opposing SOPA.

But you will be shocked to know that one of our competitors, GoDaddy is supporting SOPA but it is getting backlash from many people.

We at Host Department wants internet to be free and it should be unrestricted. We also suggest you to support Free internet and take a step to stop SOPA by contacting by voting no for SOPA.

We are proud to announce that Host Department LLC. Team is working on the most awaited feature for which our thousands of customers have asked us millions of times, Data BackUP’s. We are planning to provide data backups for all the customers and we are delighted to say that we will be the first web hosting company in the world to provide it even to the shared hosting customers.

Daily Back Ups by hostdepartment

We have thousands of shared hosting customers and they are always worried of the their data. But now you don’t have to worry as we will take daily backups. It would be a great boon in the hosting world as no one will provide back ups and even if they provide they will do it only for dedicated hosting customers or Virtual Private Hosting customers (for a price) but we do provide it for even shared hosting customers for free.
