Choosing
the right Web Hosting service provider
may be very tricky. The reason is simply that it becomes difficult for common
person to read between the lines and the ingenious way the Web Hosting provider use to suppress the proper information. The
cyber world is interspersed with very good activities as well as nefarious
activities and differentiating between the right and wrong is not an easy task.
A few tips are discussed which may guide you to make a good choice.
Do not make a choice
easily: You should not be in a hurry to choose a Web Hosting Plan. In your over eagerness to buy a plan, you may get
deceived easily and make a few fatal errors, much to the delight of the
provider.
There
are plenty of cases that people have bought lesser services than they need and
lamented afterwards. For example, you may be tempted to buy cheap hosting plan
offering shared Web Hosting service
without properly analysing your business needs. It is not to say that all
shared Web Hosting are bad. There is quite a great application where shared Web Hosting service is running very
successfully. It is cheap and also useful for various applications, like blogs,
local non-profit organisations, small businesses etc., where you do not expect
huge rush of traffic and therefore do not need very high speed of loading or
huge storage space. But in case you are here for opening a big on line
business, or want to stream videos, or certain other services which needs very high speed loading of your
Website, or SEO friendly Website, you must choose a different option for your Web Hosting plan.
Accepting a Long term
contract may be tricky: Many WebHosting provider offer good discounts for purchasing a plan having an extended
period of contract say for 3 years or 5 years. The provider may also offer some
good deals to you to entice you accept this plan.
The
problem starts when you want to change the hosting company and want to enrol
your business with another Web Hosting
Company. Chances are very high that your existing host will not agreed to
refund the reaming amount of money of your contract.
It
is suggested that you should not enrol with a Web Hosting company for more than 1 year as you may decide after
sometime to leave the host due to certain reasons. This is particularly to the
persons who are setting up the business for the first time. Many people, who
have entered in to a long time contract and decided to opt for leaving the host
and switched to another, leave the old site as it is as they do not get the
refund. The old site continues to remain neglected and this can adversely
affect your business reputation.
Always read the Terms
of Contract meticulously: There
are only handfuls of people who really go through the entire content of the
Terms of Contract. Most people have a just overlook of the pages and do not
have the patience to read the contract in its entirety. Nay Web Hosting companies use this fact to
their advantage adroitly. These companies often do not permit to store your
file or media streaming, etc. Therefore while signing the agreement please make
sure you understand what you are signing.
