In contrast to a static HTML Internet site where all content is on the actual pages of the site, any script-driven site collects all of its information in a database. Just a few examples of this kind of websites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart electronic commerce portal - in both cases, item listings, prices, blog posts, user comments etc are stored in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the information you include, the bigger the database becomes and if your web hosting plan has some limit for the maximum size a database may have, your site might not perform properly after you reach that limit. The effects can range from not being able to add new information to improperly performing Internet site or even the website showing nothing but error messages and not being accessible at all.

MySQL Database Storage in Shared Web Hosting

If you get a shared web hosting through us, we will never limit the expansion of any MySQL-driven Internet site that you host in the account due to the fact that our packages feature unlimited database space for storage. Although huge databases could influence the overall performance of a website irrespective of the type of hosting, we don't have a limit both for the total space all of the databases can take and for the total size of an individual database. You can easily run an Internet based store with as many products and services as you wish or a forum without worrying that you may have to delete old posts or limit the number of registered users that you can have. Our Hepsia hosting Control Panel shall also enable you to import or export databases within your account no matter their size. If you experience any issues with the latter, our tech support is available 24/7 to help you.
