A survey of Lonex

We, at vmartus.com, have selected 'Lonex' to be our current domain and hosting distributor. This is why we presume that this concise review of 'Lonex' is perhaps going to be quite useful for other folks from all around the World who seek domain name and web hosting services. We state people from all over the Globe, since the simple truth is that 'Lonex' currently provides domain and hosting services in numerous data center locations: in the US (Chicago, IL), in Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, encompassing almost the whole planet. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'Lonex' in brief:

Shared Web Space Hosting Services

The first thing we, at vmartus.com, have discerned is the affordable prices of the shared web page hosting packages delivered by 'Lonex'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good news here is that the web page hosting plans provided by 'Lonex' are powered by a custom developed, innovative cloud web hosting platform (each hosting service, such as email, databases, web space hosting CP, data storage, DNS, stats, and so on, is being tackled by a different set of servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting vendor on the Earth will have great complications with, since cPanel is a single server based hosting platform (each hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, web space hosting CP, disk space, DNS, stats, etc., is being served by one and the same hosting server), cPanel is not open source (that is why the cPanel-based hosting firms cannot add extra functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file system (they have to set up their own file platform), which is at the bottom of any cloud web hosting service. Let's get back to the shared website hosting accounts, which are driven by an authentic cloud web page hosting platform. With a shared site hosting account, each client pays only for his/her package, thus preserving the website hosting price very low (because many customers are hosted on the same server). In a nutshell, a shared hosting package, which runs on a cloud web page hosting system, permits you to pay solely for the reserves that you really require, refraining from a situation where you pay for an advanced webspace hosting package that you cannot truly utilize, or for a small web hosting account that cannot handle your web site. The possibility to upgrade your account from one plan to another with only two mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to begin with a low-end package and upgrade as your online presence expands. So, you economize capital that you can spend on promoting the website while it is still novel. Each web space hosting package offered by 'Lonex' ships with an online website builder and more than forty popular script software platforms such as WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you 100s of dollars for web design solutions. 'Lonex' distributes shared web page hosting accounts in several different geographical regions around the Globe. There is one datacenter in Chicago covering the US and Canada; 2 European datacenter facilities - in Great Britain and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia Pacific. Hence, practically the entire Earth is encompassed to provide you and your web site's visitors with a steady and fast webspace hosting service at a desired location. On the whole, the shared hosting packages supplied 'Lonex' are really well appointed and come at an attractive price (beginning from $3.95 for the Personal plan).

Semi-dedicated Web Hosting Servers

To customers with little to no experience, a virtual private hosting server may appear difficult to manage. That's perhaps why 'Lonex' also houses semi-dedicated web servers in its principal United States data center in Chicago. Handling these plans is comparable to administering a normal shared web space hosting account via a web page hosting Control Panel user interface. They have all the features of a shared web site hosting account such as a fee-free website building tool and a PHP script installer, but the system resource quota provided by a semi-dedicated hosting server plan is many times bigger than that of a shared package. For instance, the central processing unit power that can be used is almost FIVE times as much as compared to the shared site hosting accounts. When compared to a shared plan, the quota of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is huge: 90 000 / hour. An unmetered hosted top-level domain name quota is a standard as well. The semi-dedicated hosting packages do not ship with full server root privileges (we, at vmartus.com, count this as a slight weak point), but the benefit is that they are administered via the same hosting CP GUI as the shared web space hosting accounts. This hints that a user-friendly graphical environment is accessible by all clients who do not have enough confidence to administer a private virtual web server, but at the same time need more power and supplies than a virtual private hosting server can supply them with. This is so owing to the fact that the semi-dedicated servers share the resources of the very same powerful leading edge web servers as the ones which accommodate the Virtual Private Server plans, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is very small (somewhere between 20 to thirty per physical machine), while the virtual private web servers can reach a much higher number (80 to 120 per server). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers supplied by 'Lonex' can be defined as being very inexpensive (as far as price is concerned), starting from $30.00 for the Semi-dedicated Plus plan.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

According to vmartus.com, large web sites such as social networks, community and corporate portals or famous online storefronts with 1000s of customers request a much more powerful web hosting environment. It seems that the guys from 'Lonex' have arrived at the same conclusion too. To satisfy its clients' needs, 'Lonex' provides a selection of dedicated servers that can handle millions of daily hits. That estimation rests on the hardware configurations the servers sport: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to 4 gigabytes of RAM, 2000 GB of web space and Gigabit network interface cards will no doubt guarantee the quick and steady work of any kind of site. According to 'Lonex', the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring websites. We, from vmartus.com, consider that all dedicated server solutions delivered by 'Lonex' are also appropriate for launching a hosting reseller business as each and every web server provides free billing transaction software and a bonus domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated web servers provided by 'Lonex' are all unmanaged. We, at vmartus.com, count this as a tiny minus, which can be corrected by paying a monthly fee of $30.00 USD. So, if you need help, the Managed Services upgrade includes an array of extra services such as a routine backup, software installation, hosting server monitoring and troubleshooting operations. An array of site hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are offered with each of the servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (vmartus.com's) forecast is that the exceptional drag and drop File Manager offered by the Hepsia web page hosting Control Panel will possibly make the use of any File Transfer Protocol client useless. Our (vmartus.com's) inference is that the dedicated servers provided by 'Lonex' don't seem to be very cheap (yet the Hepsia CP and the unmetered hosted domain name allowance will beyond doubt make you smile), beginning from $40.00 for the Optima 01 package.
