It is almost the end of the year. So many things happened, specifically in the web hosting business. Some new web hosting providers come into the business, some of them can struggle and even reach a good market position in the web hosting world.
Almost every web hosting provider provide the domain selling too. It is a “side business” for them, and in some case it helps their customers to setting up their website/blog easier.
But, for me, buying a domain and a hosting package from the same seller is not a good idea, especially if we manage a lot of domains. I prefer to buy domains from the well-established domain specialized seller : godaddy (godaddy.com) and name (name.com).
Currently, there are so many web hosting provider in the world. All the providers claim themselves as the best one, with unbeatable prices. If we want to buy a good hosting plan, we have to make sure that we buy it from the perfect web hosting provider that can be trusted, reliable and consistent in providing services.
Before we start searching for the right web hosting, please identify our actual needs first. What kind of features that we really need? What web programming language we will use? How many email address and how much capacity? Do we already have a domain? How many databases that allowed? And many more. All these questions will help we choose the best web hosting for us.
