This usually leads to overloaded and slow servers because some customers may abuse the scheme or because the provider does not have control on how many websites running on a server.<br \/>\nWe understand that due to the low subscription price to try and actually host as many websites as you can on the same server to overcome the loss.<\/p>\n<p>For our ultra-fast high-performance hosting services, we naturally follow a completely different way. <strong>Only one Domain is allowed with a hosting plan<\/strong>.

A purely static HTML page with 100 page views a day will naturally produce far less load on a server as a dynamic PHP-shop system with database connectivity with 100,000 page views a day.<\/p>\n<p>We always hosted per server only so many websites that the speed of a website does not suffer from the other sites, ie, if your website is the only one on one server or one of several &#8211; you will notice with respect to the speed of your page no difference , This is partly because nginx as opposed to Apache very economical with server resources bypasses (memory, processing power), on the other hand, we can at the server availability generous leeway, so that peak loads will not lead to problems.
