You Must Consider These Factors When Choosing Your Web Hosting Provider


Your Web site is your virtual business card. It is going to define your business and may well be the first impression potential customers get of your business. But your Web site is more than your business card; it is an important tool that will set you apart from the competition. It is also the heart of your Web-based business.

Therefore, your Web site has to be as professional as possible. A poorly designed Web site reflects poorly upon your business and, subsequently, upon you. Your Web site is your virtual storefront, and you want it to be easy for your customers to navigate and purchase your products or services.

Before you can even think of designing your Web sire, however, you muse first choose and register your domain name and then find a reliable Web host. Shopping around and researching is vital during this process.

When choosing your web hosting provider you are to take into account the following factors:

1. The first thing you want to find out is if the Web host is capable of supporting e-commerce activities. If it cannot move to the next host.

2. Your Web hosting package should give you sufficient bandwidth, so that when you have a high volume of visitors to your Web site, they will not have to deal with pages that open slowly.

In the simplest terms, bandwidth is the total amount of data that can be transferred over a network connection during a certain time period, bandwidth is denned in terms of bits per second. If you have an Ethernet Internet connection, for example, you will have ten Mbps (ten million bits per second). The higher your bandwidth the more data can be transferred over the network

3. Your Web host should offer you sufficient disk space. (Keep in mind that if your business grows to the point where you need more disk space, you can upgrade to a higher Web hosting package.)

4. Find out what type of corniced on speed the Web host uses- Some budget Web hosts run their servers on the 56K speed modems while the bigger Web hosts use the faster Tl or T3 high speed connections.

5. You want a Web host that will allow you to create e-mail addresses with your domain name, such as myname@mywebsite.com. Some Web hosts allow you to have an e-mail address with your Web host domain while giving you the ability to forward e-mails to your personal e-mail address. You also want to find out how many e-mail addresses you get with your Web hosting package. Can you purchase more e-mail addresses if you need them?

6. Ensure your Web host provides technical support 24 hours a day, seven days a week, by toll-free phone, live chat, or e-mail. When you run a Web-based business, you cannot afford to have a problem that will keep you online.
