The Web hosting company you choose for your business is the mostcritical aspect as to whether your business thrives or dies!

First thing you'll need to start a business on the Internet is choosinga name for your website. Then you'll need to find a reliable hostingservice to make the website live. Choosing your web page hosting companywill be the most important decision you make for your business.

The reason I say this is, if the server your website resides on isdown, more than up, your business might as well not even exist. Not onlywill you lose revenue because of the loss of sales, if the search enginebots visit your website and cannot find your pages you may be dropped fromtheir index. This doesn't happen the first time, but after repeated triesto your site it could very well happen. So any free traffic that you maybe receiving from the search engines up to this point will be gone.

Website Hosting Doesn't Have To Be Expensive

Running your website doesn't have to be expensive. Most reliable hostswill offer you their services for $8-$20 per month. If your looking forsomething cheaper than that, of course you can find it, but the serviceyou receive may not be the best. You know the old saying: "you get whatyou pay for"...

Take A Test Drive for Evaluation

I feel customer service is critical, and I mean the #1 considerationfor choosing a hosting service, I recommend you take them for a test ride.Send an email to their customer service department or go to their websiteand submit a contact us form. See how long it takes to get a response andwhat quality of response each company gives you. Some smaller companiesthat work more one-on-one with their customers may go the extra mile foryou. It is these types of web page hosting companies that become your"jewel" in the haystack. Once you find them you'll never let them go.

Some things to remember when looking for a hosting company:

1) Does the company offer educational tutorials on their website toassist you in growing your business?

2) Do you have access to software that allows you to build pageswithout knowing html?

3) What about a membership area that provides additional resources forlearning to market your website? There is a learning curve for making awebsite profitable so ebooks, videos, and audios make a great addition tothe web hosting package.

4) Do they offer a Price Freeze Guarantee? This ensures that yourhosting price will stay the same even if the web hosting prices go up inthe future.

5) How long as the hosting company been in business? This is one of thegreatest fears talked about on the hosting forums, in that the hostingcompany goes belly up and leaves you high and dry.(mind you with nowarning) Be sure to look for companies that have been around for at least2 years.

To your success!
