With this type of competitiveness in the marketplace it usually means you can get a very good deal or you can stretch your dollar much further.

Some providers even offer Free web hosting. Web site hosting is a critical part of your business, therefore, accepting a free web hosting offer should only be for a blog or site that your are not dependent on for revenue. Losing your site for several hours can typically negate any potential savings offered by these free web host sites.

This competition means many businesses are vying for your hosting dollars and competition usually drives down cost. How do you make a decision and whom do you trust to manage and host your array of websites?  For us, cPanel is crucial, as it allows people with limited knowledge manage our own sites, it allows users to add programs like WordPress and it simplifies overall site management.

But the bottom line is reliability, quality of service and for us cost effectiveness. Most hosting companies today guarantee a 99.9% up-time so you should focus on support ticket response times and what options or benefits you are getting for your dollar. Monthly Bandwidth Transfer and Disk Space Usage…some offers get you in the door cheap but then you are forced to upgrade when you get some traffic and some providers are counting on the fact you do not want hassle of moving your blogs so you feel trapped and pay the higher rate.

We will give a shout out to LaceHost Hosting whom we have been using for over two years. They are a dedicated group that respond immediately to support tickets or any other service related inquiry. For us, this is the #1 selection criteria we use when making our internet related decisions.
