SPECIAL NOTES:
 

This is what You should consider when choosing the web hosting services for Your business:

Lynux vs. Windows hosting:    Choose Lynux hosting for your business. 

Uptime:  Servers do need maintenance, meaning that every time your hosting server is down, your website and your business will also be shut. Make sure you select a company with solid track record of high uptime. Industry standard is
99%. You want to have that as a minimum requirement, better look for 99.9%.

Server speed:   Slow web site is almost as bad as no web site. Therefore, look for the most server speed you can get. Ensure your hosting company uses state of the art processors and as much RAM as possible.

Disk Space and bandwidth:   As you are starting out, you will not need to worry much about disk space and band width. However, as you begin using audios, videos, downloads, etc. on your sites, large disk space and band width will become key enablers to your business.

Technical Support:  Having the ability of calling 24/7 and getting your questions answered correctly will be key to building and running your business. Give the company a call in the middle of the night and see if you can get through and get your question answered.

 

Select private registration when purchasing your domains. This is going to help you protect your business.
