Before we start, I just want to say, I been designing websites for almost 10 years and in those years I have learned (mostly the hard way) which companies best suited me for the types of websites I designed and their functions.

If you have never had to purchase a hosting plan before and your ready to make that move now, you will quickly learn just how many people want your business. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of hosting companies. Some are free, some are cheap and well some are just way too expensive.

Before jumping and making your choice right now, you should ask yourself a few questions such as what are my hosting needs and where do I see this website in the future? Your hosting needs could be how much hosting space, usually measured in MB’s or GB’s you need. Most general informative websites will work fine with web space of less then 5MBs depending on how many graphics you have. If you have a website that has a lot of graphics such as digital photos or your going to have a catalog of products then you may need more space.

Of course this all fine and dandy but this still doesn’t tell the answer to “Why Choosing A Hosting Company Is Crucial To Website Success”. Well I’m going to tell you what you need and where to get it so stop searching. Like I said earlier I have done this for years and found the right answer after failing for so long. First I’m going to tell you what you need to make a website successful and make it easy to add more sites in the future.

1) FREE Domain Name forever! A domain name is the actual name of your websites address such as www.mysite.com Not only will you get your domain name FREE you will also only pay $10.00 for EVERY domain name after! Cheap

2) Ability To Have Multiple Domains Names On ONE Hosting Account! So now you know you can buy domain names for only $10.00, how would you feel if you knew you could create up to 6 websites on ONE hosting account? Since the first domain name is free, you would only pay $50.00 total on 6 domain names! 3) Free Website Builder! OK well if you’re a super duper website designer like me (toot toot) then you may not need a website builder, however if you want a website but have next to no knowledge about HTML then this feature will be perfect for you. Did I mention it’s FREE!

4) All The Software & Features For Your Site With A Click Of A Mouse and FREE! Let me ask you if you could use just one feature for your website like your own blog site, forums (discussion boards), chat rooms, shopping cart which accepts all major credit cards, guest books, image galleries, mailing lists, polls, surveys, helpdesk software, and well… you get the point. You can have one or all of these features and more.. Oh and once again did I mention FREE. You like that word… F R E E ! So do I.

5) Website Statistics Why is statistics important? Because you can find out tons of valuable information such as how many visits you receive every month. Where these visits are being referred from such as search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN and so on. You can find which webpage on your website then come in from (from referrals) to which page they leave. You could use this information to tailor better web pages to keep the visitors attention, or maybe they are leaving because there’s a technical issue on that specific webpage. So you can see why the statistics can come in handy for your sites. Oh did I mention that not only can you use this for one or all websites you have on this one hosting account, but also that it is all FREE!

6) Support For Literally All Programming Languages Now if you don’t know what I mean, that’s OK. You may need to know when the time comes. For those who do know, you will have support for CGI, Ruby (RoR), Perl, PHP, and MySQL.

7) 24/7 FREE Technical Support There will be a time that you will get stuck on something for your website. Well calling the technical support team is like having a techy sitting beside you except you won’t feel compelled to offer a coffee. Instead they will walk you through with any issue you have and try their best to answer all your questions 24 hours a day and yes, 7 days a week…. Oh and it’s FREE too.

Well how about that. Does this seem good for you? You will have everything at your fingertips to create your own website. Well I hope this article has helped you understand what you should have for your next website or even existing one. And now for WHERE… Oh wait! You are probably wondering about the price. How does $6.95 a month sound for everything and more I mentioned above? Did I mention you can have up to 2500 email accounts and you have up to 999GBs of traffic transfer? Also you will be given up to $100 marketing credits with Yahoo and Google FREE. OK! You can find out more information and signup to get started by visiting Best Hosting Plan Ever.
