Woe the Web
Finding a good and reliable web hosting company is like looking for the right husband. The word ‘right’ and ‘husband’ don’t belong together in the first place, many insists! Well, how can I argue with something to inadvertantly correct and incorrect at the same time?
So, you’ve decided to have your own website but don’t have a $3000 budget to set it up. You’ll be surprised. My first few months into this ‘freelancing’ world cause me to jump quite a couple of times. One of those times have something to do with web hosting….yeah, they wanted to charge an arm, a leg and 1/2 a kidney to set up my domain name, hosting and also setup no more than 10 pages

Anyway, here are a few things you should consider looking out for when you’re out web-host-hunting.
The company
There are loads of bogus web hosting companies out to rip the hearts of genuine home business owners. Their main intention is to get people to sign up for their web hosting accounts and then run with the money. Simple enough strategy but you’ll be surprised at the kind of people behind this. Some of them are barely out of puberty. In this Internet and CD age, nothing

So, advice is: look into the company, if they have an email, email them. If they have an address, check it out *better still if they have a map to their place.

The price
You cannot start a business without knowing your budget and the kind of money you would need to start a business. Similarly, you cannot find the right web hosting company without knowing how much you’re willing to pay for the web hosting facility and web hosting service.
So, be practical about the needs of your web hosting requirement and be frank about how much you’re willing to pay for it.
The customer service
But there’s one advice that I can give you. The web hosting industry is a relatively competitive one. There are tons of good web hosting companies, small and big ones alike, out there. Don’t jump on to the first web-host-bandwagon you see.

As their web hosting client, you have to expect them to give you nothing less than PERFECT hosting customer service, although frankly, their profit margin for hosting is quite slim.
Don’t pay monthly
One thing I know is that paying on a monthly basis is not a good idea. It’s better to just book and get the hosting account for the whole year. So, make sure you find the right one right from the start! Otherwise, you’re stuck with the web hosting company for the whole year. Why not pay

You see, if you can get a web hosting account and domain for USD$105 or a whole year, why pay USD$14.95 per month? BECAUSE USD$14.95 per month works out to be USD$179.40 per year!! That’s USD$74.40 more! So, don’t be enticed with their monthly payment schemes.
Let’s look at it this way, if you find the right web hosting company from the start, you’ll be more than happy to stay with them for as long as you’re still in business, right?

Build it yourself
If you’re a quick learner, you can definitely do everything up by yourself. No problems to it. If the plan comes with a site studio (a DIY system), then it’s great! You’re getting value for money. What’s a site studio? Well, it’s a web based program that allows you to create your own websites online. Some of them are really quite simple to use. It’s almost like working with a Microsoft Word program - copying, pasting

If you know basic HTML, you probably won’t be using the site studio but it’s worth having it around in case you need something up really quick. Besides, most site studios come with quite a huge database of templates that you can use for your website. This saves you time, effort and money in hiring a graphic designer and writer like me.
On the site
You should be getting some side dishes along with your new web hosting account. Look out for free blogs, forums, scripts, ecommerce shopping carts, cgi scripts, newsletter forms, enquiry forms, customer support tools like chat system, free images, audio, buttons…etc, and php nuke. This works mainly

Tutorials and Training
Like I said, the web hosting business is really competitive these days. Everyone is offering some form of rock bottom prices for their web hosting services. I know some web hosting companies are actually offering site building trainings, search engine optimization technique and trainings, insights into the web promotion world training and free courses. If you get any of these and the price is reasonable, for for it. They will help you build a more credible web site from your web hosting service.
