In the past two months, I’ve been closing several web hosting accounts that I had open the past 3 years. I’ve cut down on my domains/websites so downsizing the web hosting was important. Although, I closed three reseller hosting accounts I have been shopping around for good Affordable web hosting. When I first got started in 1999 I had no idea what to look for in hosting so I went for cheap hosting at around $3/per month. It was good but when the popularity grew it became a really bad service. So I learned from the first experience and usually ask friends in the business or highly trusted recommendations. There is no way to know a good quality host with the following important attributes, unless you have a reference:

• High Up time Percentage
• Fast Support & Forums
• Speed and Performance
• Quality & Good Pricing
• Bandwidth & Space Allowance (no hidden fees)
• Easy Upgrade Options and Transfers
• Unlimited Domain Hosting

These are very important features if you’re shopping around for hosting. A company like IMHosted which I discovered while searching for a shared host replacement, offers a significant amount of web space and bandwidth. One of my favorite features of any shared hosting company is the possibility to host unlimited domains. Why? If you’re just starting out it is the most affordable way to get as many sites off the ground without spending too much outside of your budget.

IMhosted also offers a free domain for life, so that means no yearly renewal as it is added with the service as long as you are a customer. Although I’m not a big fan of using the host free domain offers, I’d rather have 100% control of my domains in case of any changes and if I want to sell it later. It is less complicated in my opinion when you have control of it using a domain registrar. But for newcomers it is easier and less hassle to get started! The other features included at IMHOSTED include:

• No Setup Fees
• 99.998% Network Uptime
• Languages: PHP, FTP, SSL, MYSQL..
• Pre-Installed Scripts

The pricing is very good as well at only $6.95 per month and if you purchase annually or more than one year it is cheaper. I’ve read more than one review of this company from several good blogs and hosting review websites. Overall it seems that you can’t go wrong and there is always a guarantee if you’re not satisfied. My best picks for any hosting company is good support, up-time and possibility to use most scripting languages! Good luck with your search!

If you are operating on a Windows system, there is a large choice in Windows dedicated servers available today. Years ago, dedicated servers were not as prevalent as they are now. Because there are so many dedicated servers available on the market, the price of getting Windows dedicated servers has dropped in the past few years.

In choosing Windows dedicated servers, you may want to ask yourself just what type of space you need as well as bandwidth. This will determine what type of server is right for you. Windows dedicated servers come with different options, as well as services. The type that you need depends on the type of business that you have.

There are many different budget dedicated servers on the internet than ever before. Some of these budget servers actually split the main server into several different dedicated servers. A true dedicated server only caters to your business. Your website is the only website that the server hosts, which frees up your website and allows it to expand and have abundant traffic flow.

Windows dedicated servers that are on the market today range in price, depending on the type of service that you are seeking as well as size and bandwidth. Naturally, the more space and bandwidth you need, the larger the server and the more it will cost.

You also need to pay attention to the services offered by the dedicated server provider. If the server crashes, for example, what sort of guarantee do they have that they will get it up and running? When you have your own internet business that relies on customer traffic, you cannot afford to be offline for days. You need a dedicated server that is reliable as well as the company that maintains it.

Unless you have a very large business with your own IT crew, chances are that you will have to rely on the maintenance of the service provider for whichever of the Windows dedicated servers that you choose. It cannot be overstated how important this service is to you and your business. You never, ever want to lose business because your server is down for days and the provider is unavailable.

One way to find the best Windows dedicated servers is by going on the internet and discovering different companies that are willing to provide you with this service. Many of them have their telephone numbers listed in online directories. This is the best option as you can actually speak to someone and explain to them what you are seeking in a dedicated server. This will also give you an opportunity to test out their knowledge as well as their customer relation skills.

Expect to pay much more for Windows dedicated servers than Windows shared servers. However, the extra space, attention and bandwidth will be worth it if you have a growing business. There is no reason to lose customers that you try so hard to attract to your website if you choose one of the reliable Windows dedicated servers that are on the market today.
