How To Obtain A Cheap Web Hosting Quote
Posted by admin in Web Hosting on September 22nd, 2010
Would you like to discover a way of being able to host your website without it costing you an arm and a leg? For people who have answered this question with a “yes” then it would probably be beneficial for you to continue reading. I will be writing about the way in which I host my many websites.
There are number of things to consider once your new website has been uploaded to the net. There is the little matter of promoting the site and there is also the need to find a suitable web hosting solution. There are many hosting companies offering different fees, therefore it can be quite difficult in finding the best deal.
There are many avenues to explore to find this best deal. I personally ask my web designer to see if he/she can recommend an affordable web hosting service.
Alternatively you can search the internet using a search engine like Google.
For those of you who have a great amount of sites it may well be prudent to think about signing up for a reseller hosting package. Here, for an annual fee, you are able to have as many websites as you like hosted under the same umbrella etc.
I myself have a large number of websites to do with being a freelance copywriter, my SEO company and offering stuttering cure speech courses, I use fasthosts for my hosting. They charge an annual amount and this works out to be a lot cheaper than having individual hosting accounts for each of my websites.
There are other companies out there offering a similar service to fasthosts, however this is a company I was recommended to use, and I have had no problems with them as yet.
The only negative I could mention about fasthosts is that at times when you phone their customer services hotline, you are kept waiting quite a long time before you get to talk to an advisor.
A lot of the questions are though answered at their control panel, therefore it is quite rare that I have needed to phone them; all in all I am pretty pleased with their service.
Web Hosting Companies And The Ten Commandments Of The Good Ones
Posted by admin in Web Hosting on September 20th, 2010
In terms of wanting to provide a good service to customers the following Ten Commandments should be complied with by good web hosting companies.
1. Customer support must be of the highest level and be available for customers whenever they are required. Emails will be responded to promptly.
2. The web hosting service will offer a range of services so that as a website grows the host can provide additional services.
3. There will be no lies or misleading statements made to customers from a great web hosting service. Their service is great quality and there is no need to lie about anything.
4. They will know their clients well and create packages that are tailor made to fit their needs.
5. A great web hosting company will be able to answer the many queries that customers have and will do all they can to reassure them. They won’t belittle any queries from their customers.
6. A good web hosting company will keep up to date with all that is happening in the world of hosting. They do this so that they are always offering one of the best services to customers.
7. They will make a point of not passing information about customers to anyone else unless they have the permission of the customer.
8. As well as providing security for their customers websites, a good web hosting service will also provide maximum security for any information regarding credit cards etc.
9. If a web hosting company feels you would be better off with another service then they won’t be afraid to tell you because they will know that even if they send you somewhere else, they may end up getting more business because of it.
10. Good web hosting companies will charge fairly for the service they are providing. Even though the best web hosting services will never be the least expensive, they will still offer reasonable prices.
Whenever you make your decision to enter the big, bad world of internet marketing, you should really have web hosting dealt with beforehand. Newbie’s can find, though, that the web hosting world can be rather confusing. An example of this could be coming across domain names when you are looking at different hosting options and plans.
