Cheap Web Hosting – What to Look for

Many people who are still in the process of getting a feel of the hosting business do not want to risk too much and yet want to establish an online presence with a hosting account that would give them access to all the helpful hosting tools and features. Cheap web hosting or budget web hosting are ideal options to consider. Quite frankly, budget web hosting is not difficult to find at all. However, since the user would be subjected to a massive number of budget web hosting companies with just a single search click, it is important to exercise prudence and find out about the history and performance delivery of the web host you are interested to sign up with.

Budget web hosting is an ideal option for people who want to establish their website presence and at the same time do not wish to invest too much. There are many good quality budget web hosting companies out there that are famous for delivering quality services but to sift through the astronomical number of companies could prove to be a tad daunting for the novice user. So a considerable amount of research, analysis and recommendation tools are needed to find a reliable budget web hosting provider.

It’s also important to ascertain in advance any kind of hidden costs apart from what is mentioned on the price tag. This is primarily because while the price tag may mention a lower amount, some companies ask the users to pay for additional tools and services which are almost indispensable to a hosting account. So the user is eventually left with no other choice but to pay up for the additional hosting tools and this could equate to an expensive hosting solution. Such a situation would therefore be highly undesirable to a user who is on the lookout of a budget web hosting account.

Furthermore, many web hosting providers may also try to cut corners in order to make up for the low pricing structures that they offer. This could imply inferior customer support, considerable downtime or even non-modern technology. So it becomes imperative to check the company’s history and levels of reliability in the hosting industry before you host your website with them. The user should evaluate in advance the amount of bandwidth, disk space etc that he/she would require so that he can select a hosting package that would befit his requirements.

    What’s a good and cheap web hosting provider? looking for something which can support databases and ASP.NET.?
    I’m doing a site for my high school class reunion, so I don’t need much in the way of bandwidth. Also would like to be able to add a lot, since I’m a recent computer science grad, and I’m looking to put together a portfolio.

    Personally I use

    http://www.re-invent.com/

    You should be able to get a name and space for less then $100.00.

    Try asking some of your other classmates and see if they already have a website on a MS server that they will let you have a little space for free.

    I recommend either Godaddy Economy or the Deluxe plan:
    http://www.hosttell.com/godaddy/
    (prices from $4.74/month – $6.99/month)

    You just have to select windows hosting (instead of linux which is selected by default). This option is located on top of the plans description. I would even recommend you the Deluxe hosting, because it allows you to host multiple domains on the same account, so you can add your personal site or others to the same account. (you just have to buy additional domain names).

    A 200 page website inclusive of text and pictures would require about 50 Mb of space or even less. Ideally the amount of bandwidth you should go for is 1Gb to 5Gb. This would be more than adequate. May I suggest taking a look at http://hosting-plan-rebates.blogspot.com/ They provide affordable hosting

    Hi,
    I believe most Web Hosting companies to be quite similar, they may have slight variances in bandwidth, they may or may not have limits on the number of domains you wish to use or the number of email accounts you need. However, as you probrably know already from your own research, you must avoid all free hosting sites.
    I want to share a site with you that will be more than adequate for your needs, But with a twist, I want you to Firstly go to this site and sign up as an affiliate, then and only then I want you to click on your affiliate link and open a hosting account. Whatever package you opt for, they will pay you $100 – In other words, you will probably end up with free hosting…… Very Nice!

    Yesterday we was looking a cheap and reliable hosting company with c panel and fantastico, for ower blogs and websites.

    Cheeking in google come out a video of a guy in youtube, about how to get a hosting account for 1 cent, My wife watched it and she said that she did know about this company and she had her boss in the office, where she works, that use it from long time.
    So to get short, she did how the guy in the video was saying and she already transfer mostly of the sites to the new account, is 1 cent for the first month, and after that 9.95 per month, the cool think we can upload how many site we like no limitations, we have 1 forum with very heavy loaded and seems that works o.k. now, we been also in touch with the customer service, they are confirming the sites are working perfectly
    The good think is that if we are no happy with it, they have like a 45 days money back, the money back is only 1 cent

    Anyway good luck
