Discounted dedicated web hosting service

Dedicated hosting accounts

The most significant of all hosting solutions, the dedicated servers delivered by Free Hostia offer various Control Panel choices: (a) Hepsia (with the Debian Linux OS exclusively; fee-free; unlimited hosted top level domain names; a single web hosting account login; no root privileges; our suggestion number 1 due to the presence of the leading-edge Domain Manager – not incorporated by default in any other hosting CP on the whole market); (b) DirectAdmin (without charge); (c) cPanel (a monthly cost involved). Both DirectAdmin and cPanel sustain CentOS only; unmetered hosted TLDs; involve a second account login for domain name, invoicing transaction and client support ticket handling procedures; full dedicated server root privileges. All dedicated servers are available exclusively in the US server farm facility.

Control Panel 1 - The Hepsia web hosting CP is a typical tool only in combination with the Debian Linux OS and comes free of charge. With Hepsia you can host unmetered domain names in a single hosting user account. This is accomplishable owing to Hepsia's powerful Domain Manager tool. The other Control Panel devices, i.e. cPanel and DirectAdmin, are offered only with CentOS. Unlike Hepsia, with them you must have 2 different accounts. This is so, since cPanel and DirectAdmin do not supply any domain name registration/transfer/administration functions. If you go for Ubuntu as an OS for your dedicated web hosting server, there will be no web hosting Control Panel possibility.

Hosted Hostnames 2 - unmetered domains can be hosted with all available hosting Control Panel setups, but only with Hepsia you can register/transfer/administer your website names under one account. Unfortunately, the cPanel/DirectAdmin hosting CP devices do not provide such option at all - there is no Domain Manager section and this is why they call for TWO autonomous account logins: 1 domain name management/billing/support account and 1 website management account (i.e. the actual cPanel/DirectAdmin Control Panel).

OS (Operating System) 3 - you will discover that the Hepsia CP is offered with Debian Linux only. It's free of cost to have it on your dedicated hosting server. Hepsia is not available with CentOS or Ubuntu. The cPanel and DirectAdmin web hosting CP devices can work solely with the CentOS Operating System. Neither of them is available with Debian or Ubuntu.

Dedicated Server Root Access 4 - not available only with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and available in all other circumstances.
