A review of Divine Creations

We, at theananvillas.com, have selected 'Divine Creations' to be our present domain name and hosting distributor. Therefore we think that this succinct review of 'Divine Creations' is probably going to be very helpful for other folks from all over the Globe in search for domain name and web hosting solutions. We say people from all over the World, because the mere truth is that 'Divine Creations' presently offers domain and hosting services in several datacenter locations: in the USA (Chicago, IL), in Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, covering practically the whole Globe. At least as far as the Internet is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'Divine Creations' in brief:

Shared Hosting Accounts

The initial thing we, at theananvillas.com, have detected is the cheap prices of the shared website hosting packages furnished by 'Divine Creations'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the web page hosting accounts offered by 'Divine Creations' are powered by an in-house devised, cutting edge cloud web hosting platform (each hosting service, like mail, databases, web site hosting CP, disk space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being tackled by an autonomous stack of web servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting distributor on the Globe will have huge troubles with, because cPanel is a single server based hosting platform (each hosting service, like email, databases, Control Panel, storage space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being served by one single web server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel web site hosting firms cannot include extra functionality and handle it the way they need it) and there is no open source file platform (they need to devise their own file platform), which is the foundation of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared web space hosting plans, which are driven by a real clustered webspace hosting platform. With a shared webspace hosting account, each customer pays only for his/her account, thus maintaining the price amazingly low (because a lot of users utilize one and the same server). In a few words, a shared hosting plan, which is being served by a cloud web space hosting platform, permits you to pay only for the reserves that you actually need, refraining from a situation where you pay for a high-end web page hosting plan that you cannot truly utilize, or for a low-end site hosting package that cannot handle your website. The ability to upgrade your account from one package to another with only two mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to commence with a basic package and upgrade as your site expands. So, you economize funds that you can invest in promoting the web page while it is still new. Each and every hosting plan offered by 'Divine Creations' contains an online website building tool and more than 40 widely used script platforms among them WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you 100s of dollars for website design solutions. 'Divine Creations' delivers shared web space hosting plans in a number of different regions across the World. There is one server farm in Chicago covering the United States and Canada; 2 European server farm facilities - in Great Britain and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia-Pacific region. Thus, approximately the whole Globe is encompassed to present you and your website's visitors with a steady and dependable web hosting solution at a preferred location. As a whole, the shared hosting services furnished 'Divine Creations' are really well equipped and come at an affordable price (starting from €2.97 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To users with little to no experience, a virtual private web hosting server may appear complicated to manage. That's probably why 'Divine Creations' also houses semi-dedicated servers in its principal North American datacenter facility in Chicago. Handling these plans is similar to administering a typical shared plan through a webspace hosting CP GUI. They have all the features of a shared web space hosting account such as a fee-free web site building tool and a PHP script installer, but the amount of system resources offered by a semi-dedicated web hosting package is many times larger than that of a shared website hosting account. For example, the CPU power that can be used is nearly 5 times as much as compared to the shared web hosting plans. When matched against a shared website hosting package, the quota of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is vast: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted domain name allowance is a trend too. The semi-dedicated hosting accounts do not ship with complete root-level access (we, at theananvillas.com, deem this a slight problem), but the plus is that they are administered via the very same hosting CP tool as the shared web site hosting accounts. This signifies that a user-friendly GUI is offered to all users who do not feel self-confident enough to administer a VPS web server, but at the same time require more power and features than a VPS web hosting server can deliver. This is so due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web servers share the system resources of the very same powerful first-rate web hosting servers as the ones which accommodate the VPS server packages, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is very small (somewhere between 20 to thirty per physical server), whereas the private virtual hosting servers can reach a much higher number (eighty to a hundred and twenty per physical machine). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers furnished by 'Divine Creations' can be labeled as being very cheap (as far as cost is concerned), starting from €19.23 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Servers

In theananvillas.com's opinion, huge web pages such as social networks, community and business web portals or famous web shops with thousands of clients request a much more powerful web space hosting solution. It appears that the guys from 'Divine Creations' have drawn the same conclusion too. To satisfy its clients' requirements, 'Divine Creations' supplies a selection of dedicated web servers that can manage millions of daily hits. That estimate is based on the hardware specs the dedicated hosting servers arrive with: Dual and Quad-core processors, up to four gigabytes of RAM, 2000 gigabytes of disk space and Gigabit network cards will definitely ensure the fast and stable work of any kind of website. In 'Divine Creations's opinion, the primary hardware specs can be upgraded for more resource-demanding websites. We, from theananvillas.com, deem that all dedicated server accounts offered by 'Divine Creations' are also suitable for starting a hosting reseller business as every hosting server offers free-of-charge billing transaction software platform and a free domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated hosting servers delivered by 'Divine Creations' are all unmanaged. We, at theananvillas.com, regard this as a slight weakness, which can be righted by paying a monthly fee which amounts to €34.55 EUR. So, if you are in need of aid, the Managed Services upgrade offers various extra services such as a routine backup, software installation, web server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. Several web site hosting CP (CP) GUIs are available with each of the web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (theananvillas.com's) prediction is that the outstanding point and click File Manager added in the Hepsia web page hosting Control Panel will probably make the utilization of any FTP software program useless. Our (theananvillas.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers delivered by 'Divine Creations' don't appear to be very affordably priced (still the Hepsia webspace hosting Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain name quotas will undoubtedly make you smile), commencing from €124.16 for the Xeon Scalable 6c package.
