Website Hosting At Affordable Rates

By Ade Carone


Before I start talking about web hosting and what you should look for, let me say that I host my own sites with Hostgator. So I'm definitely not just "talking the talk". I actually do use the hosting provider that I sing praises about.

What may be affordable to me may not be affordable to you. Whatever the case may be though, you should look for a company that only charges you about $10 bucks a month for hosting.

As I mentioned earlier, affordability goes hand in hand with reputable hosting providers such as Lunar Pages and Hostgator. They get great reviews every year and that is something else you should keep in mind. A good hosting company will get great reviews.

Other things to keep in mind when it comes to getting your site a suitable host would include disk space, bandwidth, domain limit, database count, PHP, FTP, cPanel, and a variety of other factors. All of these items are crucial to any successful web hosting business.

Let's face it, we both want the same thing for our website in the long-term spectrum of things. We want to be able to handle lots of traffic without our site ever going down. We also want to know that there is someone we can chat with if an emergency were to occur.

Only use what you really need when it comes to picking a webhosting company. You will see many hosts offer a variety of features that may sound nice, but when it comes down to it, you will probably never use them. Only pay for what you actually need.
