Many people think that building a website is a really simple task which, if you have the technical knowledge, it can be. But you have to then select a web hosting company to make your website visible to the world. There are several choices of web hosting available to you and your choice will be based upon the type of website and its purpose.
If you have a website solely as a hobby or pastime and you use the site just for fun then free web hosting may be the choice for you. There are advantages and disadvantages to free hosting and these should be considered carefully before you make your choice. The advantage is the cost, as it is free, and the hosting will usually come with free email. The downside to free web hosting is the limited security, limited technical support and few, if any, software options.
You are also limited on your bandwidth, which covers the number of visitors you can receive to your website.
If you select paid hosting it is important to choose a reputable company who can offer low cost hosting with a wide range of services. Here at Heart Internet we believe that low cost does not mean poor service and we have three hosting packages to suit all budgets.
Another web hosting option is dedicated hosting. With this option you have a server and its resources all to yourself. As you would expect with this option, you have unlimited software solutions and twenty four hour technical support. This type of hosting is the choice for larger businesses with high traffic volumes and multiple domain names. Using a dedicated server does require that you have a certain level of technical knowledge.
Again selecting a reputable company is a must if you want to concentrate on building your business without extra worries.
