Business web host selection is one of those steps that every business will have to go through when setting out your stall on the internet. It doesn’t matter whether you are an established offline enterprise looking to being promoting on the web or whether you are just starting up a new online business. At some point you will need to choose your web host for your business.
You do need to be aware that you could host your web site on your own server. However for a start up business or for one coming online for the first time there are significant disadvantages that include the need for server expertise in setting up and managing it and of course cost. So at this early stage it is advised you seek out a good business web host. As you grow and expand, you can always upgrade.
So let’s look at some of the positive things about a good business web host.
The web hosting industry has been in a state of flux over the recent past as the demand for web space has increased near exponentially. Buying web space with a hosting company used to be an expensive investment but fortunately because of improvements in hosting technology coupled with the increasing levels of competition, prices have fallen dramatically from what they were only a short few years ago.
That means as a consumer you don’t need to worry about price being a factor in choosing your business web host because the cost of a really good service, one that will more than likely even exceed your needs will be so cheap. In the past you might have felt you were sacrificing quality at the expense of saving a few dollars, but these days that is not the case.
One of the first considerations you will need to make is how much disk space will you need and how much bandwidth. Perhaps as a first time purchaser of web hosting services you might have no idea how to define these variables in your search for somewhere to place your site. Well this is not going to be a problem for you because these days a good business web host will offer you unlimited disk space and unlimited bandwidth, so you never have to worry about defining your needs.
Here are a couple of things that are really important that you must consider though.
The first is choosing a provider that will give you the best technical support. Now it is probably hard to assess what levels would qualify as being the best, but a good place to start is how accessible that support is. As business on the internet is carried out 24 hours a day because people from all over the world will find their way to your site, you need to have support that you can all up at any time of the day.
It is especially important that you are able to contact them “live” which means by real time chat or over the phone. E Mail support is frustrating because you have to wait for an answer and often there are failings in communication if you don’t know how to describe the symptoms of the problem in the technical language required for support staff to understand how to help.
The second key factor to consider when choosing your business web host is that how you interact with the behind the scenes components of your site (known as the control panel), needs to be simple to access and easy to use. You will find that a good business web hosting package will allow you to add multiple domains, shopping carts, blogs and a variety of other services you probably don’t even know that you need right now. Unless your user interface is simple to access and easy to use, implementing these new features could become a headache.
Fortunately the majority of business web hosts provide a good control panel and easy to follow tutorials on how to use the various features. If you are going to manage the site yourself, it is a good investment of your time to understand how to use your control panel.
