There is no doubt that reliable web hosting is essential element of a successful online business and one should pay a lot of attention when choosing web hosting provider. The purpose of this presentation is to point out some main do's and dont's in choosing best web hosting.

  3. DONT's 1. Never rely on free web hosting. Nowadays there is a lot of web hosting companies that offer free web hosting services and there is no suprise that this sounds tempting. However, if you are in a need of a reliable web hosting, free web hosting services will usually not meet your expectations. The truth is that top web hosting services have never been free and you simply have to pay for them.

  4. 2. Try to avoid particulary cheap options. Very cheap web hosting will always be better than a free one but usually still not good enough.  Cheap web hosting providers generally don't have stable and reliable servers as well as skilled customer support staff. If somebody offers you unlimited web hosting space with unlimited bandwidth for 1 or 1.5$ per month something will usually be wrong. Prices of reliable unlimited hosting plans start from 3$/month. 3. Never pay for two or three years in advance if you aren't familiar with web hosting company. When choosing a paying option never pay for more than one year in advance. Of course, monthly cost of one-year subscription is higher that two or three-year subscription but this will minimize your losses in case you aren't satisfied. If you have already familiarized with a web hosting company and they proved the quality of their services only then consider long-term subscriptions.

  5. 4. Don't choose totally new web hosting companies. Try to avoid web hosting companies that have been just established. Let others do the testing for you. It's wiser to choose those web hosting providers, that already have lots of customers and have received many positive reviews. That usually costs more, but you will always know that you get what you pay for.

  6. DO's 1. Do a lot of research before making decision. Collecting information before making final decision is crucial. Don't choose the first web hosting company you find. Always explore other options, compare prices and most importantly, read web hosting reviews. This will ensure that you will get "a bang for your buck" and potentially save a lot of time in the future.

  7. 2. Always look for unconditional money-back guarantee. When paying for a web hosting plan don't forget to check wether this web hosting provider ensures that you will be able to get your money back if you don't feel satisfied. This means that you will be able to test this web hosting before making final decision. Don't hesitate to contact customer support and ask for a refund if particular web hosting does not seem to be as good as promised. 3. Try to contact customer support before paying. Even if you understand everything, try to contact customer support team of potential web hosting provider and ask them something. You will see how fast and how well they respond. Fast and helpful customer support service is one of the main characteristics of good web hosting company.

  8. 4. Look for free bonuses. Lots of web hosting providers offer reasonably priced web hosting plans nowadays. In order to attract customers some web hosting companies offer various free bonuses with their hosting plans. These bonuses usually include Google, Yahoo or Facebook advertising credits that might be of a great use when advertising your new website. You will also be able to sell to other people and get some of your initial hosting expenses back.
