Web Hosting thats right for you
Posted on 28. Oct, 2008 by Robert in Internet
You’ve decided that you want a website, you learn that you will need to get some kind of hosting package. But what do you choose? 50 mb of space with 2 gigs of bandwidth or do you need 2 gig’s of harddrive space and 25 gigs bandwidth?
Do you get your own domain name or do you get one somewhere else? How many email addresses do yo need?
If you are starting a new company
You will need to have a hosting package that gives you storage space online and email addresses for as many people as youo have in your company. You will have to have a domain registered to you.
With a domain name, you will have to think about what you want your domain name to be. Preferably the name of your company. If you can, get a domain name that is relevant to your country. eg. If you are in South Africa, get a .co.za domain. If you are in Australia, get an .au domain. Keep that in mind when you register a domain name.
If you are looking for a blog or free website.
wordpress an blogger are both great free services that allows you to create and manage your very own blog. It is still accesable by everyone and Search engines pick it up and indexes it.
If you just need an email address.
There are many services that gives you a free email address. Gmail, yahoo, msn, hotmail, webmail ect. You just sign up with them, and setup your favourite email client to download that mail.
When you decide on what hosting solution you will need, keep these things in mind.
