Shared hosting is a popular choice when it comes to web hosting as it is cheap and the most basic form of
web hosting. If you want to host just one regular sized website or a few smaller sites, you should find that shared hosting will meet your needs. Shared hosting offers varying disk spaces and bandwidth and guarantee 99.9% uptime and 24/7 customer support if you choose the services of a reliable and reputed
hosting provider.
Shared hosting has a few disadvantages as well. The website is hosted on a shared server and hence puts you at a disadvantage when it comes to using specialty functions or modifying the server configurations. Slow loading of website can also be a major issue.
