Frequently Asked Questions
What is LiteSpeed?
LiteSpeed servers are event-driven servers, and less hardware is needed to handle the same load as a process-based server. This means the CPU and RAM don’t need to be used as much, freeing them up to make your website faster.
Is LiteSpeed better than Apache?
It depends on what you’re looking for. LiteSpeed has incredible server speeds, resource distribution and allocation, and security. Apache is more user friendly, and also has these features but does not outperform LiteSpeed.
Is LiteSpeed better than NGINX?
Both have event-driven architecture, making them speedier than Apache. LiteSpeed has shown better results on benchmarks tests when up against NGINX, however.
What are the advantages of LiteSpeed web server?
With a LiteSpeed web server, your site will be able to handle more traffic without sacrificing speed or requiring more resources.
Is LiteSpeed secure?
Yes, with additional modsec rules, anti-ddos measures, the http/3 protocol (and some other cool features), LiteSpeed is a lot more secure than traditional hosting.
Do I have access to cPanel?
Yes, you have access to all the regular cPanel functionality as well as additional features like the LSCache plugin for all supported content management systems.
How to choose a web hosting company?
Focus on support – Most web hosting companies offer the same plans and prices, but swift, effective, personable, human support is invaluable.
Website uptime – Constant website uptime is imperative for anyone running a serious business or website.
Server speeds – The less time you spend waiting on things to load the better. We ensure you make the most of your time by using LiteSpeed caching, Mod Security WAF, Imunify360, and more.
Software & backups – You want solid web hosting management software and automatic backups that don’t count towards your disk space allocation.
Personable – You want a company that can help you scale your project while treating you like a valued friend the entire time.
Flexible – Flexibility in products and contract length means you can tailor what said hosting company has to your needs.
How do I move my web hosting to CreativeHaus?
Simply reach out to us and we’ll assist you with your website migration. We’ll help move everything you need. We’ll also spot you free domain name transfers.
What is disk space on web hosting?
Disk space is the storage capacity on your server. It works similarly to the storage capacity of your standard laptop or computer.
What is a subdomain in web hosting?
Think of a sub-domain as the child of the main domain. It shares a strong relation and connection but it’s a different website. For example, web.creativehaus.co.za is a subdomain of creativehaus.co.za.
What is the difference between web hosting and domains?
Web hosting is buying space on a server for a website to exist on the internet, while domain registration is buying the address so people can find that space on the internet.
What does bandwidth mean in web hosting?
Bandwidth refers to the amount of data that you can transfer to and receive from your users over time. So, if your website requires many large pages to load for thousands of visitors, you’ll need a larger bandwidth for those things to load at a good speed.
How does web hosting work?
Essentially, your website stays on a web server owned by a hosting company. The hosting company will provide you with space on the web server, as well as the tools you need to manage your website, as a service.
What is PHP web hosting?
PHP web hosting provides all the tools you’ll need to build, host, manage, and serve fast, dynamic websites built with PHP:
- An FTP account to upload your PHP scripts,
- Web servers that run PHP handlers to process your scripts to serve your website and manipulate databases,
- MySQL database management system to manage your data using PHP, and
- CMSs to manage your content.
Does web hosting affect SEO?
Absolutely, it can affect SEO in the following ways:
- Page load time: Slow page load time is a bad SEO signal because it provides a poor user experience, which will hurt your website rankings
- Server uptime, which means website uptime: Google will actually begin to de-index your website if it has more than a couple of days of downtime.
- Server location: Search engines like Google use server location and domain names as relevancy signals for local users. So, hosting your website on a web server in South Africa with a .co.za domain will rank better for visitors in South Africa.
What is a domain in web hosting?
A domain name is a human-readable word that directs people to a specific IP address. Website addresses are actually long numbers. Instead of remembering the number, we assign a domain name to the number. The same way your name and ID document works.
