What webhosting provider knows

Hi there!

In some cases, hosting providers may have certain restrictions on proxy usage or require identification dоcuments or phone verification after registration.Otherwise, users may not need to provide full personal details to use hosting services. However, some questions still arise regarding the Internet channels used by hosting companies and whether web hosting providers have specific channels planned for their services.

A question that often arises is whether hosting companies access the same Internet channel as home users. While the difference in power may exist, it is not clear whether there is a dedicated channel for hosting services. When using a VPN on the server, the browser sends encrypted data to the VPN server, which then sends unencrypted data to the website. Given this scenario, it is worth asking if web hosting providers plan for a specific channel.

SORM is often regarded as unreliable, and almost all hosting services have it. With our hosting service, it is common to retrieve data by directly accessing the server's hardware via soldering. Though this approach may seem more invasive than SORM, I personally do not fear SORM as much since I have experience working in telecommunications. However, the thought of using a soldering iron still scares me.

There are two options for payment and hosting services:

Option a) allows for anonymous payment via bitcoins and tor clients, but does not have adequate support for problem resolution. Additionally, it does not offer any way to identify the owner of the account.

Option b) requires personal identification and contact information, including a passport, mobile number, email, and two-factor authentication. This option offers greater protection against fraudulent activity, but may result in potential refunds or legal disputes if services are not rendered.

In general, hosting providers only log requests to the site for fail2ban and attempts to access the hosting provider's panel. These logs do not include user traffic, and it is not the host's responsibility to collect traffic data.

Additionally, it is worth noting that on average, each hosting server may have thousands of sites with access.log files ranging from megabytes to hundreds of meters per day. With hundreds of client requests per hour, it is unlikely that the host will monitor individual user activity.

On average, servers recycle traffic more frequently than individual internet users. This is not due to overselling, as some servers can consume 3-5 TB or more per month. Even VPS may use tens of terabytes of traffic, and some clients have managed to pump over 100 TB per month on a VPS.

According to statistics, there are typically a maximum of 50 servers with 1 Gbit/s and a limit of 100 TB per 1 Gbit/s, assuming that the client profile is comprised of enterprise clients rather than traffic generators such as sites with movies. While it is possible that some traffic may go to exchange points, routing costs may still arise and require additional fees.

To simplify pricing for customers, we offer cheap Cogent 1N for those who require low-cost traffic in large volumes and the best Tier I service for enterprise clients with 10-20 TB of traffic per month.

Hosting companies typically utilize the same Internet channels as home users. They rely on Internet service providers (ISPs) to connect their servers to the wider Internet. The difference in power between hosting companies and home users lies in the infrastructure they use, such as high-speed connections, redundant networks, and data centers with advanced networking equipment.

Regarding your question about a specific channel for web hosting services, it's important to note that hosting providers do not typically have dedicated channels exclusively for their services. Instead, they rely on their network infrastructure and connections offered by their ISPs to ensure reliable and fast access to their servers and websites.

It's also worth mentioning that when users employ a VPN on a server, the browser's encrypted data is transmitted to the VPN server and then forwarded to the website in an unencrypted form. This encryption helps maintain security and privacy during data transmission.

Ultimately, hosting providers focus on establishing reliable network connections, optimizing server performance, and ensuring consistent accessibility for their clients rather than having a separate channel specifically for hosting services.
