How to choose a hosting provider?

If you are looking for web hosting provider to host your personal or business website, you need to consider two things. I did a list of the most important things that you should always be taken into account when choosing a web host for your help you make the best decision possible.

1 - bandwidth

Theses who do not know what it is, and bandwidth is the amount of data your website can upload / download per month. This is very important because when your website will grow in popularity, it will use more and more bandwidth. You have to know that every time the user to download one of your web pages, even if it does not load anything, it takes some bandwidth. On your web site in bandwidth will be allocated up to the ceiling, no more visitors will be able to access your web site until next month. It can lead to the loss of the most faithful visitors or potential customers you have e-commerce site. If you can, try to choose a hosting provider that offers you unlimited bandwidth so you will not have to bother about it anymore.

2 - Disk Space

Disk space is the amount of data server allows you to store your web site. This depends on your goals with your web site. If you do not plan to put a lot of media (such as images, videos, and music ,...), more than hosting packages will provide you with enough space on the disk. Otherwise, you should consider, such as bandwidth, and choose a hosting provider that offers you unlimited space and simply forgotten.

3 - Features

If you already know exactly what features you will need to build your website, you can simply look at the list of attributes that are always offered by any hosting company. (If not provided with a list of features, I do not think that you have to go with them!;)) And the most important feature to consider is: Do you support the markup language that you want to use? You also want to know if they have a mailing list, databases and services to send e-mail. However, like most people do not know that all the small things that you need. This is why I always recommend to choose a web hosting provider that gives you more features. You can not know if you need it one day, today, you'll be very happy to have them because you will not have to change your host.

4 - server uptime

And server uptime is the amount of time that was your web site up and running. All hosting companies and down for various reasons such as maintenance or pirates. Do not be fooled get 99% uptime guarantee, because it is not so much. You should look for at least 99.5% to reach 99.9% uptime guarantee, which has become the standard in the industry. I have never seen a guarantee 100% uptime, even if you see one, I wanted to e-mail me!

5 - Support

And customer support is really important especially if you are beautiful and new in this area. They need not only to answer your questions fast, but also give you valuable information. Not achieved only if it offers telephone, e-mail, chat and support tickets, but also look as if they have the knowledge base, forums, questions and answers to a library or even a step by step lessons. These sources of information that can answer your question faster than having to wait for your reply. Even if you're a web master experience, and sometimes you do not have the option to contact them to make some changes or to fix some bugs. The best advice I can give you is to test them with a question before signing. Whether to meet their demands.

6 - Price

For most people, the price is the most important factor. If you just want a personal site, and cheaper and should be fine, but if you want a web site more professional, you should not be very cheap. Sometimes it is much better to pay a little more to be everything to you, and truly great service. This does not mean it is cheaper hosting providers does not suit your needs, but remember that it is more important to have everything you need with a good service to get the best price only. Also, it is something you should consider when looking at the price is: Does the price include setup fee and domain name? With a minimum subscription in a single plan, and many companies offer free setup and free domain name. Some even offer you a free domain name for life (as long as you stay with them, of course!).

7 - To ensure the recovery of funds

Not a lot of people think about money-back guarantee, but I think it is very important. If you do not like your new host for any reason, there will be a chance to be refunded. Most of the show for 30-day money-back guarantee, but even save some money at any time and ensure a return! Do not forget to think about this!

I hope that this will help you, and wish you better luck!
