Best Fast & Cheap Windows Shared Hostings For ASP.Net Core

I’ve been using VPS(Virtual Private Server) for many years. I have tried many providers & always been satisfied. I have also used Amazon Web Services (AWS) for some of my clients. It offers reliable & scalable cloud computing services. When It comes to Microsoft Azure Cloud Services, It’s also an open, flexible, enterprise-grade cloud computing platform with great features as AWS.

All the above solutions to host your .Net Core Applications are great but expensive & require a little networking knowledge to set up your web application.

Do you want a cheap shared hosting plan with the support of latest .Net Core Versions?

Yes, In this article, I’m going to list down some of the cheap, fast & reliable web hosting providers to publish your ASP.Net Core Application.

Background

2 days ago, I bought a Godaddy Windows shared hosting plan to host an ASP.Net Core 2.2 Application for my client. I have used Godaddy’s VPS which is really great with the power of Plesk. After purchasing Shared Hosting I found that It doesn’t support .Net Core 2.2 (till I’m writing this Article – Aug 2019). Actually they added support till .Net Core 2.0 in July 2019 & looks like there’s no recent plan to update. So I decided to ask their support to refund. I’ll appreciate their really friendly support, they help me to initiate my refund request.

Best Shared Hosting for ASP.Net Core Latest Versions

After too much searching & testing many Shared Windows hosting, I have compiled a list of best, Fast & cheap solutions which also support Latest .Net Core versions.

Сегодня на просторах постсоветского пространства хостинг поддерживающий технологию ASP.net давно уже не редкость. Каждый провайдер, который предлагает Windows-хостинг, соответственно поддерживает работу данной технологии. Это объясняется тем, что компания Microsoft, чтобы хостинг-провайдеры покупали ее Windows-server, создала ASP-конструкции, которые дают определенные преимущества над Linux-платформой. Эти преимущества заключаются в возможности получения более быстрого доступа к функциям сервера, хотя впрочем они несущественны.

Данный рейтинг практически идентичен рейтингу Windows-хостинга и имеет небольшие отличия, которые продиктованы отзывами пользователей.

Настоятельно рекомендуем не покупать слишком дешевый хостинг! Как правило с ним очень много проблем: сервер иногда не работает, оборудование старое, поддержка долго отвечает или не может решить проблему, сайт хостера глючит, ошибки в регистрации, оплате и т.д.

Также мы собрали тарифы от тысяч хостеров, чтобы вы могли выбрать хостинг по конкретной цене.

Облачный хостинг — распределение нагрузки на несколько серверов, если сервер с вашим сайтом перегружен или не работает. Это гарантия того что пользователи в любом случае смогут видеть ваш сайт. Но это дорогая, более сложная опция, которую предоставляют далеко не все провайдеры.

Виртуальный хостинг — подходит для большинства проектов начального уровня с посещаемостью до 1000 человек в сутки. В таком хостинге мощность сервера делится между несколькими хостинговыми аккаунтами. Услуга проста в настройке даже для новичков.

VPS — подходит для более сложных проектов с достаточно большой нагрузкой и посещаемостью до 10000 человек в сутки. Здесь мощность сервера фиксированная для каждого виртуального сервера, при этом сложность настройки увеличивается.

Выделенный сервер — нужен для очень сложных и ресурсоемких проектов. Для вас выделяют отдельный сервер,мощность которого будете использовать только вы. Дорого и сложно настраивать.

Размещение и обслуживание вашего собственного сервера в дата-центре хостинга — это не очень популярная услуга и требуется в исключительных случаях.

CMS — это система управления контентом сайта. Хостеры стараются для каждой из них делать отдельный тариф или упрощать установку. Но в целом это больше маркетинговые ходы, т.к. у большинства популярных CMS нет специальных требований к хостингу, а те что есть — поддерживаются на большинстве серверов.

Тестовый период — предоставляется хостером бесплатно на 7-30 дней, чтобы вы могли удостовериться в его качестве.

Moneyback — период на протяжении которого хостер обязуется вернуть деньги, если вам не понравится хостинг.

Означает какая операционная система установлена на сервере хостинга. Мы рекомендуем размещать на серверах с Linux, если нет особых требований у разработчиков сайта.

Абузоустойчивый хостинг — компании, которые разрешают размещать практически любой контент, даже запрещенный (спам, варез, дорвеи, порнографические материалы). Такие компании не удаляют контент вашего веб-сайта при первой же жалобе (“абузе”).

Безлимитный хостинг — хостинг у которого отсутствуют лимиты на количество сайтов, БД и почтовых ящиков, трафик, дисковое пространство и т.д. Обычно это больше маркетинговый трюк, но можно найти что-то интересное для себя.

Безопасный хостинг — тот, где администрация постоянно обновляет ПО установленное на серверах, устанавливает базовую защиту от DDoS-атак, антивирус и файерволлы, блокирует взломанные сайты и помогает их «лечить».

Защита от DDOS — компании, которые предоставляют хостинг с защитой от DDoS-атак. Такие пакеты ощутимо дороже обычных, но они стоят своих денег, так как ваш сайт будет защищен от всех видов сетевых атак.

На языке программирования PHP и базах данных MySQL сейчас работает большинство сайтов. Они же поддерживаются практически всеми современными хостингами.

ASP.NET — платформа для разработки веб-приложений от Майкрософт.

От панели управления зависит ваше удобство в настройке хостингесайта.

Большинство качественных хостингов из нашего ТОПа используют удобные панели управления, поэтому рекомендуем больше внимания уделить другим параметрам при выборе.

Hosting An ASP.NET Core Web Application In IIS

For the past few years I’ve been almost exclusively using Azure’s PAAS Websites to host my .NET Core applications. Whereby I set up my Azure Devops instance to point to my Azure Website, and at the click of the button my application is deployed and you don’t really have to think too hard about “how” it’s being hosted.

Well, recently I had to set up a .NET Core application to run on a fresh server behind IIS and while relatively straight forward, there were a few things I wish I knew beforehand. Nothing’s too hard, but some guides out there are waaayyy overkill and take hours to read let alone implement what they are saying. So hopefully this is a bit more of a straight forward guide.

You Need The ASP.NET Core Hosting Bundle

One thing that I got stuck on early on was that for .NET Core to work inside IIS, you actually need to do an install of a “Hosting Module” so that IIS knows how to run your app.

This actually frustrated me a bit at first because I wanted to do “Self Contained” deploys where everything the app needed to run was published to the server. So… If I’m publishing what essentially amounts to the full runtime with my app, why the hell do I still need to install stuff on the server!? But, it makes sense. IIS can’t just magically know how to forward requests to your app, it needs just a tiny bit of help. Just incase someone is skimming this post, I’m going to bold it :

Self contained .NET Core applications on IIS still need the ASP.NET Core hosting bundle

So where do you get this “bundle”. Annoyingly it’s not on the main .NET Core homepage and you need to go to the specific version to get the latest version. For example here : https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/3.1.

It can be maddening trying to find this particular download link. It will be on the right hand side buried in the runtime for Windows details.

Note that the “bundle” is the module packaged with the .NET Core runtime. So once you’ve installed this, for now atleast, self contained deployments aren’t so great because you’ve just installed the runtime anyway. Although for minor version bumps it’s handy to keep doing self contained deploys because you won’t have to always keep pace with the runtime versions on the server.

After installing the .NET Core hosting bundle you must restart the server OR run an IISReset. Do not forget to do this!

In Process vs Out Of Process

So you’ve probably heard of the term “In Process” being bandied about in relation to .NET Core hosting for a while now. I know when it first came out in .NET Core 2.2, I read a bit about it but it wasn’t the “default” so didn’t take much notice. Well now the tables have turned so to speak, so let me explain.

From .NET Core 1.X to 2.2, the default way IIS hosted a .NET Core application was by running an instance of Kestrel (The .NET Core inbuilt web server), and forwarding the requests from IIS to Kestrel. Basically IIS acted as a proxy. This works but it’s slow since you’re essentially doing a double hop from IIS to Kestrel to serve the request. This method of hosting was dubbed “Out Of Process”.

In .NET Core 2.2, a new hosting model was introduced called “In Process”. Instead of IIS forwarding the requests on to Kestrel, it serves the requests from within IIS. This is much faster at processing requests because it doesn’t have to forward on the request to Kestrel. This was an optional feature you could turn on by using your csproj file.

Then in .NET Core 3.X, nothing changed per-say in terms of how things were hosted. But the defaults were reversed so now In Process was the default and you could use the csproj flag to run everything as Out Of Process again.

Hosting ASP.NET Core application with IIS

I just want to make it short by not telling stories. For detail stories reach to reference article.

Classic ASP.NET hosting

In a classic ASP.NET application everything is hosted inside of an IIS Worker Process (w3wp.exe) which is the IIS Application Pool. The AppPool hosts your ASP.NET application and your application is instantiated by the built-in ASP.NET hosting features in IIS.

ASP.NET Core with IIS

With the ASP.NET core, the application is NOT hosted inside of an IIS worker process but rather runs as a separate process (like a Console application) that runs its own Web server using the Kestrel component. It’s fast and functional in getting network requests into your application, but it’s ‘just’ a raw Web server. It does not include Web management services as a full-featured server like IIS and NGNIX does.

ASP.NET Core applications are standalone Console applications invoked through the dotnet runtime command. They are not loaded into an IIS worker process, but rather loaded through a native IIS module called AspNetCoreModule that executes the external Console application.

The AspNetCoreModule has to be installed on your server and is part of the ASP.NET Core Server Hosting Bundle.

Once you’ve installed the hosting bundle (or you install the .NET Core SDK on your Dev machine) the AspNetCoreModule is available in the IIS native module list:

The AspNetCoreModule’s job is to ensure that your application gets loaded when the first request comes in and that the process stays loaded if for some reason the application crashes. Once running, incoming Http requests are handled by this module and then routed to your ASP.NET Core application.

If you run on Windows you will likely want to run Kestrel behind IIS to gain infrastructure features like port 80/443 forwarding via Host Headers, process lifetime management and certificate management to name a few.

While the IIS Site/Virtual still needs an IIS Application Pool to run in, the Application Pool should be set to use No Managed Code. Since the App Pool acts merely as a proxy to forward requests, there’s no need to have it instantiate a .NET runtime.

The AspNetCoreModule is configured via the web.config file found in the application’s root

If the above config does not work try with the following config which you will be getting when you published in the local system folder.

Note that when you open the config which was created as a result of publishing the application, you will find AspNetCoreModule (marked bold in the above config) as AspNetCoreModuleV2. Change it to AspNetCoreModule

IIS Identity and Permissions

You might also have to tweak the IIS App Pool Identity to something other than the default ApplicationPoolIdentity in order to ensure that your application has access to resources it needs to run. Try starting with NETWORKSERVICE and then move to a Custom Account that matches the actual rights required by the application.
