Good Hosting Is A Must
In order to successfully run an online business, good web hosting is a must. But when deciding on the dedicated web hosting
for you business, you should take some time to analyze it well. Here are a few things to look for:
Technical Support – You always want to be assured that you could get help if something goes wrong. Is your web host company there for you, or will they play the blame game? Check out all your contact methods that they make available to you, to help you rest easy knowing you have help 24/7. Many have online chat night and day to allow them to help with solving your problems.
Speed And Reliability – Many people will fall for the bells and whistles and overlook the reliability of the web host they’re looking at. This can be very disappointing. Always try to look for a provider which has a lot of ‘up-time’. Many have up-time guarantees. This is a far more important factor than procuring features that you might not even use. Poor servers go down regularly, which will cost you and your business.
Your website needs to stay up and be available if you can ,, and in good standing with both the search engines and your visitors. If your site loads too slow, then people will leave it. Plus the faster sites will get crawled by the search engines faster so they can gather information about your site for your page rankings.
FTP Accounts – It’s a good idea to install an FTP client onto your hosting account. This will enable you to upload and download files back and forth from your server without any problems. There are several discount web hosting
who don’t offer you the FTP access to your server. This makes it very hard for you to manage and update your site on a regular basis. So always check to see you have FTP capability.
Email Accounts – Any business online will need a good email campaign. This is a superb marketing tool and should not be overlooked. See how many POP3 email accounts are included in your package. And while you’re at it, look for access to auto-responders too. They accompany your email campaigns. You will also need good SPAM blockers.
Number of domain and hosting reseller Allowed – Some people have several site to host, so this option enables you to host multiple domains on one single account. Many companies are doing this now, to cater to their customer’s requirements.
Control Panel – Here is the administrative area where you, as the webmaster, can manage your server and site. Most people who have been online for any time know that cPanel is the standard for the industry. You want this function to be simple to use, and cPanel has the best interface going. It also has other features like Fantastico which will allow you to install programs quickly to help you ready to go in a short time.
Bandwidth And Disc Space – These two features are essential in online business. And they vary with the different hosting packages. The smaller the site, the less you need. The larger, the more.
