So you have decided to start an online business or a blog and you are looking for reliable web hosting companies but have no idea which one to choose. This is a major problem for most people because there are thousands of web hosting providers on the web and you will find hundreds of websites with false advertising or fake reviews. So, how do you combat the problem? There are few things one should look into before signing with the web hosting company - - Make sure all information that is provided on the website is 100% accurate and that includes pricing, features or any hidden charges. Ask if there are any other hidden charges or if any other charges will occur after few months. - If a company offers 100 gb of bandwidth, they should provide that service. Please make sure to call up sales or live chat to make sure. If they offer unlimited bandwidth or space, ask the web hosting about the restrictions. You can usually look this up in "Terms and Conditions" but it's a good idea to ask sales before signing up. Make sure to keep record of the conversation for future references. - What is the guaranteed uptime for the web site? - What will the web host offer you if the uptime guarantee is not met? - How long the company has been in business? You can find this out by either contacting them directly or checking the whois of the domain at http://www.whois.sc . You can also check number of year by looking at the BBB report. - Find out if the company is listed with BBB and find out their rating?
