Shared hosting refers to a web hosting environment where many websites reside on one web-server. You as a customer share a server with other customers. Usually it's about 100 to 400 accounts in one server. So, what you need to consider before you buy shared web hosting plan?
Customer service has to be looked into, seriously many providers think that because they offer cheap Shared Web Hosting that they don't need to support their users to a high standard. BS, you paid them for a service so they should damn well provide it. The truth is many webmasters encounter difficultie and at these times they need the support of their hosting provider. Ignore the importance of customer support and you will regret it.
So, you have a name, a plan and a place for your site to live. Finally, it is time to start designing! The choice here is to try to build yourself, "self-build", or find a professional to do the job for you. A half way house some use is to find a family member or friend who dabbles in Shared Web Hosting UK design and will do the job for as little as a case of beer. I would strongly advise against this route as the design process can be quite intense and is apt to place some strain on any personal relationship if significant redrafting is needed or the design is not all you had hoped for. If your first designer is not up to the project you can fire them and move on. Letting go of a family friend can present far more issues.
As a rule of thumb, if you choose a domain name, consider first whether you could find any .com extension which is recognised as most valuable extension. If .com is not available, consider .net extension. If both .net and .com are not available, you might want to consider .org or straight go to your country top level extension.
(3). Check Price Plan - You will be able to get access to many Affordable Web Hosting providers for your home business for less than $10 per month. Many of them offer long term plans ranging from two (2) to five (5) years, and some of these can save you up to forty percent (40%) or more over the period. If you can afford to, you should definitely choose a long term plan for the savings they offer.
Support is so, so, so (getting where I'm going?) important when it comes to choosing a web host so make sure their tech support guys are available 24/7. The last thing you want is to be stuck waiting 24 hours before they can get back to you from the other side of the world.
To close this simple overview let me make it clear to you that getting the fairest hosting service is not a thing of concern. Find a polite and user friendly web hosting service and ask them to guide you in setting up an inexpensive hosting account. We all start one way and inexpensive hosting is the modest choice if you want to get started on the internet.
