Basics of web hosting and what to look forFirst Things First
After deciding that you are going to have a website, you need two things, a domain name and a company to host it for you. Domain names are fairly cheap, you can go to www.godaddy.com where they sell them for $9.00 a year or sometimes, the web host provider will either sell them or give it to you with their plan.
The web hosting company is basically renting you space on their web servers. Whatever your website will be, a web hosting company will let anyone in the world view your site.

Web Hosting: To Switch or to Stay?Web Hosting: To Switch or to Stay?
Author: Joelene Wickens Orlando
That's a question that can only be answered by you. Depending on your current status and relationship you have with your provider, along with your evolving business objectives and needs, can determine what course of action to pursue. What are your issues and concerns? Ask yourself some basic questions and see where you stand after you've answered them. -Are you no longer satisfied with your current provider? -Did they deliver on the level of services that you signed up for? -Has technical support and customer service been to your satisfaction? -Or has your business grown considerably, and the hosting company cannot provide you with the level of capability and technical support you require?
Technically speaking, if you're looking for solutions out of frustration, or even a new web hosting provider, you're either very unsatisfied with the service, or you find that they cannot provide you the service you are looking for to handle your business. Switching isn't always a bad thing to do, especially if your business isn't doing well with that one particular provider. It's time to move on and get your online presence back on track. Unfortunately, for every good thing, there is a negative side. The flip side of finding a new provider is that you're back at square one. Before you decide, whether to stay or switch, do some research and find some indicators to help you make a sound decision.
