Compared with a static HTML Internet site where all content is on the actual pages of the site, any script-driven website gathers all of its information in a database. Just a couple of examples of this sort of sites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart electronic commerce portal - in both cases, item listings, rates, blog posts, user reviews and so on are collected in the database and not inside the actual script files. The more the information you include, the larger the database becomes and if your website hosting package has some limit for the maximum size a database may have, your website may not function correctly as soon as you hit that limit. The effects can vary from being unable to include new information to poorly performing website or even the site displaying nothing but error messages and not being available at all.
MySQL Database Storage in Shared Website Hosting
If you get a shared website hosting from our company, we shall never restrict the growth of any MySQL-driven Internet site which you host in the account since our plans feature unlimited database space for storage. Though large databases could have an effect on the overall performance of an Internet site no matter what type of hosting, we do not have a limit both for the total space all databases could take and for the total size of one database. You may run an Internet store with as many items as you wish or a forum without having to worry that you may have to remove old posts or limit the amount of registered users that you could have. Our Hepsia web hosting CP shall also permit you to import or export databases in your account no matter their size. If you face any issues with the latter, our tech support is available 24/7 to assist you.
