Shared hosting is often seen as the “entry-level” of web hosting—but at PLiKhost, we take it much further.
We’ve carefully designed our shared hosting infrastructure to deliver reliable speed, strong security, and excellent uptime—without the high costs of premium servers.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how we keep our shared hosting fast, secure, and efficient.
🧠 1. Powered by Apache with Optimized Configuration
Unlike many providers who chase trends, PLiKhost sticks with Apache, one of the most stable and trusted web servers in the world.
We fine-tune our Apache setup for:
-
High compatibility with CMS platforms like WordPress, Joomla, etc.
-
Efficient handling of PHP and static content
-
Robust performance in shared environments
Combined with our backend optimizations and caching tools, Apache continues to serve reliably across thousands of websites.
💾 2. SSD Storage for Speed, HDD for Backup
We use enterprise-grade SSDs as the primary storage in all shared hosting servers, delivering:
-
Fast file access
-
Quick database queries
-
Reduced loading times
Meanwhile, all data is also backed up regularly on HDD-based local storage for redundancy, plus an additional layer of remote backups on separate servers for disaster recovery.
🧱 3. CloudLinux OS + AlmaLinux for Resource Stability
Every shared hosting server runs on AlmaLinux, a secure and stable enterprise OS, paired with CloudLinux OS to ensure:
-
Account-level resource isolation
-
Fair usage of CPU, memory, and disk I/O
-
Protection from “noisy neighbors” on the same server
CloudLinux allows us to deliver VPS-like stability in a shared hosting environment.
🛡️ 4. Secured by Imunify360
Security is built into every PLiKhost shared hosting account thanks to Imunify360, a comprehensive security suite that provides:
-
Real-time malware scanning
-
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
-
Proactive defense against brute force attacks
-
Patch management for known vulnerabilities
-
IP reputation filtering
Your website is protected—even if you’re not a security expert.
🌐 5. Cloudflare DNS Integration
DNS matters more than most people realize. That’s why PLiKhost uses Cloudflare as our DNS partner, enabling:
-
Faster global DNS resolution
-
Built-in DDoS protection
-
Caching and CDN features (optional)
-
Domain management with high availability
Your website is not just fast—it’s also globally accessible and resilient.
🧩 6. Softaculous – 1-Click Install for 400+ Apps
No need to install software manually. With Softaculous, available in every PLiKhost shared hosting account, you can:
-
Install WordPress, Joomla, PrestaShop, Laravel, and more
-
Set up staging environments
-
Manage backups of installed apps
-
Perform automatic updates
You get your website up and running in minutes—not hours.
🔁 7. Regular Backups – Local and Remote
PLiKhost provides multi-layer backup protection:
-
Local backups on HDD storage (easy recovery)
-
Remote backups on a separate server (disaster recovery)
-
Scheduled snapshots for peace of mind
We believe your data deserves more than “just one copy.”
📊 8. Transparent Resource Monitoring
Each hosting account comes with tools to track your:
-
CPU and RAM usage
-
Disk space
-
Bandwidth
-
Inode (file count)
You’ll know exactly how your site is performing—and when it’s time to consider an upgrade.
Final Thoughts
Shared hosting doesn’t have to mean low performance or weak protection.
At PLiKhost, we combine stable technology like Apache, CloudLinux, Imunify360, Cloudflare, and SSD storage to deliver a shared hosting experience that punches well above its weight.
