subject: Choosing the right web hosting plan for your website [print this page] There are many factors involved in choosing the right web hosting plan for your new website. The trick is to weight the costs against the features provided. Of course it is easy to get the cheapest web hostingplan with a company XYZ. But this plan does not have SQL or PHP functions, has limited bandwidth, traffic, etc. So, it really depends on what you need your website are.
To select a good web hosting plan, I recommend at least the following features are included:
1. High-bandwidth traffic.
2. Compatible with SQL and PHP.
3. Supports subdomains.
4. Cpanel for easy control.
5. At least 5000MB of storage space.
6. Auto responders.
7. POP email accounts.
8. FTP Accounts
9. Support backup
after all these features, select the price is within your budget. Some cheap web hosting providers charge a setup fee time, and some charge less if you pay a year in advance fees. Also look out for incentives such as free domain names; this is a powerful attraction that is very common nowadays.
If you are planning to host multiple websites, you must choose a plan that supports hosting multiple domains on one account. Some providers are compatible with this and is mostly two or three domains. I heard that the support of the other unlimited domains, but it is necessary to consider the price factor against this option.
The downside is that if the hosting provider's server goes down, all websites are also provided. Do not put all your eggs in one basket so to speak.
There are probably many other considerations before deciding on the hosting plan that is right for you. But time and effort invested in the plan to get the right of the first round is worth investing in. I myself rate Canadian web hosting both in terms of money and quality of service.
