Considerations to Choosing your Hosting

Of course there are plenty of hosting companies to choose from. To help you narrow your choices down take the following points into consideration. You will then be able to make a wise hosting decision.

 Is this a personal or business site?
 Do you have a budget for Hosting?
 How big do you plan or growing your website?
 Do they offer Cpanel?
 Are you uploading lots of images?
 Will you require a shopping cart and payment method?
 Do you plan on installing a forum?
 If running a business will you need to set up an affiliate program?
 What type of security does your site require
 Does the hosting company offer website templates?
 Will your account allow for growth or upgrading if and when you require more space?
 Is there a support desk and an online customer service system?

As well as thinking about what features you want for your site you need to think about how much work you are prepared to do if things go wrong! Each web hosting company offers different packages and features. Be sure to check each one at and make comparisons before making your final decision.

Does the hosting company offer free support or will they charge you extra to go into your account and fix something? Greengeeks has top notch customer support. So far, for years, they haven’t charged us for anything in fixing hosting related issues.
