Hi guys,

I'm a new member of thenewtech.

Choosing a particular web hosting provider available in the market for our website can sometimes be confusing and frustrating.

In my opinion, the best way to deal with this situation is to use:

1. Referral:
Ask your business acquaintances, friends and family which web hosting provider is used for their respective organizations or if they can otherwise recommend a web hosting provider.

2. Money Back Guarantee:
A good and reliable web hosting provider will dare to have a money back guarantee policy for their client. It'll will give more confidence knowing their web hosting provider is not some sort of "back yard" company.

3. Check with a particular web hosting provider (through their "contact us" interface) whether they are able to provide service according to your needs in terms of price, storage space, traffic volume permittable and last but not least is for them to provide a guarantee 24/7/365 support (possible in writting).

Hopefully my input can be of help for everybody. Any additional inputs welcome.

I like to add that people should shop around. You don't have to go with the first host that you investigate and sometimes taking a few days, or week, can help you with making a better decison.

Another suggestion is to be wary of any host that says they give you unlimited bandwidth, or unlimited space. Check out what that means is the very fine details.
