The price of web server software isn&#8217;t exactly the main issue when planning to bring a web site online. Web server price depends on how much resources you need for your website, and what kind of infrastructure you can afford.<\/p>\n<p>More than 99% of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/what-is-web-hosting\/\">web sites use shared hosting<\/a> as a solution. In other words, they rent a space in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/google-web-hosting-price\/\">web hosting<\/a> companies, sharing a big physical server with other customers. Copahost, for instance, offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/cheap-shared-hosting\/\">cheap shared web servers<\/a> at low prices, starting at 1,99\u20ac per month.<\/p>\n<h3>Having your own server versus price to rent a web server<\/h3>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/what-is-web-server\/\">web hosting company basically provide several big servers<\/a> connected to the internet, 24 hours a day. It&#8217;s perfectly possible to have your own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/what-is-web-server\/\">web server<\/a> up and running, in your office for example. There may be some surprises when calculating the web server <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/google-website-hosting\/\" >price if you plan<\/a> to run a local web server.<\/p>\n<p>There are lots of disadvantages on running your own web server, despite the price:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>High energy costs<\/li>\n<li>Web server configurations of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/http-vs-https\/\">HTTP<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/what-does-dns-stand-for\/\">DNS<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/what-is-an-ftp-site\/\">FTP<\/a>.. require efforts and time<\/li>\n<li>Security updates must be performed daily<\/li>\n<li>A good firewall must be configured<\/li>\n<li>The control panel license costs are quite high (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buycpanel.com\/cpanel-price-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>There are efforts to monitor your web server (we recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nagios.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nagios<\/a>).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Why you should consider a shared web server, and what&#8217;s the price?<\/h3>\n<p>Basically, having a shared hosting web <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/how-to-fix-500-internal-server-error\/\">server is a perfect solution<\/a> for 99% of the web sites on the internet. Copahost, for example, have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/google-web-hosting-price\/\">web hosting<\/a> plans starting at 1,99\u20ac per month.<\/p>\n<p>Advantages and costs of a shared web server:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cheaper price<\/li>\n<li>No surprises with the energy bill<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/cheap-and-best-domain-hosting-how-to-find-it\/\">Domain registration<\/a> services<\/li>\n<li>There is a specialized team monitoring your web server<\/li>\n<li>Expertise in security configurations<\/li>\n<li>A very rich and complete control panel, without extra prices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Conclusion about web server prices<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s not worthy to have a local web server running, as its monthly cost is usually high. In this other article, we show some\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/web-server-examples\/\">web server examples<\/a>. If you really need to run a local web server, there are good and free solutions like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/free-cpanel-alternatives-centos-web-panel\/\">Centos Web Panel<\/a>. \u00a0It will save some working hours and effort configuring your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/what-is-web-server\/\">web hosting server<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As a conclusion, a shared <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/google-web-hosting-price\/\">hosting web server price<\/a> is way lower than running your own server.<\/p>\n<p>Copahost shared hosting servers offers a more complete control panel, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.copahost.com\/blog\/directadmin-letsencrypt\/\">DirectAdmin<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/cpanel.net\">cPanel<\/a>.
