What is web hosting? Whenever you visit a website, what you see on your browser is essentially just a page that is downloaded from the web server onto your browser. In general, a web site is made up of many web pages (html). And a web page is basically composed of texts and images. All these web pages need to be stored on the web servers (A physical Location) so that online users can visit your website, But before the hosting you should have your own domain with you, do you have?

Let me simplify more for you “Suppose you plan to start your own company, so what you’ll do first of all? Yes, you will register your company from the “Company Registrar” of your city, state and after that you’ll seek a space where you can hang up your office board, put some chairs, tables, furniture’s, computers and else whatever you want. So your company name registration will called your domain name registration on web, and your office space will called your hosting space on web for your web furniture (Web pages and images).

Company that provides the web servers to host your website is called web hosting providers. A well-established web hosting provider sometimes hosts up to thousands of websites. For that reason, a web hosting company need many web servers (essentially, these are computers) to ‘store’ the website & all these web servers are connected to the Internet through high speed Internet connection and housed in a physical building called ‘data center’. In order to guarantee all the web servers are safe, secure and fully operational all time, a data center is a physically secure 24/7 environment with fire protection, HVAC temperature control, virus detections, computer data backup, redundant power backup and complete disaster recovery capabilities.

What are the different types of web hosting? There are different kinds of web hosting companies out there with different characteristics. The main types of web hosts can be organized into the following categories

There are so many platforms to host your web site, the most used are Windows, Linux & Unix. We’ll discuss about the hosting types and platforms in next blog sometime, right now I just want to brief you about the very basic tips that how you can seek a best place for your online business “Beginners Tips for Web Hosting” and here are the tips that how you’ll get this…

What You Should Know About Your Web Host

I am sure that you all have received some email in your inbox sometimes, it was like 5 to 6 lines max, at the end was a link which It was asked to click on, sounds interesting and you want to read ASAP before starts your new work, I am right? If yes then certainly you did exactly that wait for about 1 minute but no page downloaded. Just thought might Internet connection gets down so you checked it but it was perfect.

You refresh the page often but results were same. After trying many times you jumped into you another priority tasks and read all other mails and did your routine work. In evening suddenly you again remember that mail since it was so interesting, you again read it and click on the link but this time also same results appears you finally give up and delete that mail.

This whole episode left a question in your mind that why people don’t choose their web host wisely. In fact it’s the most vital part of Internet business. Why they compromise with the quality of the server and services for only saving some money, which is not going to make any difference anywhere.

A web host is the first important step towards building our Internet business. You can get cheap or even free hosting services but don’t prefer free hosting for commercial sites. Your users are going to get blasted with annoying pop-ups every time they surf to your page, it’s going to be impossible to get a decent position in a search engine, and you don’t even get a real business URL. No one’s going to remember your web address if they have to type www.freehostingforyourdomain.com/yourdomain.

So the question is what points we should consider before select our web host.

1. Space

It’s the first point to consider that how much space your host is providing to you. If you have one or two page website with no downloads, it’s not an important point but if you are planning to go for resale right product, you need at least 100 MB space. Most good web host provide minimum 1 GB space to their clients.

2. Bandwidth

It’s the most important part to check. Did you know that sites with high downloads causes many people to go over budget on bandwidth and lose their host? Sometimes they have to pay fees up to hundreds of dollars. It’s essential to check before buying any hosting services. Most good host provides 25 to 50 GB Bandwidth.

3. Support System

It’s also key point. If you get stuck at any point, how long does it take to get support? Do they provide 24/7 phone support.

Some Additional features you must check:

How many POP email account they are providing?

How many database they are providing?

Do they have Web based e-mail?

Do they have Anti-Spam and Anti-Virus filters?

Can you Password Protected your directories?

Do they take regular backup in case of server get crashed?

Do they have money-back Guarantee, if you don’t like their services?

Do they support Perl, PHP, Crontab and Secure Server Layer?

(You don’t require these facilities in beginning but after some time you need it.)

I personally trust “Reliable Web Hosting Services” for my hosting needs. They have all features that a professional host must have. The must to tell feature of this hosting service is that it gives one hour response guarantee but usually I get response in 5-10 minutes. I’ll prefer best hosting service just because of its speedy response and its tons of superb qualities.
