Web Hosting
How do you find a web hosting plan that will meet your needs and still be cost effective? Not all web hosting plans are created equally, and as such you will need to consider these issues before making your choice on web hosting.
Price is more often than not the most important consideration. If you are new to web hosting and just setting up a new site you more than likely don't have the extra capital to spend on web hosting, so you will want the most return on your investment. Compare the following characteristics across several providers to ensure you are getting the most for your money.
What amount of traffic allowance (bandwidth) do the plans you are considering offer? Some of the more affordable plans on the market offer a considerable amount of traffic compared to higher priced plans, be sure to allow for your sites traffic to grow when making your choice, you don't want to be upgrading your plan the moment the traffic to your site increases, all it can take is for another internet user to link to your website from another high traffic website to cause a massive influx of visitors.

What amount of disk space (storage) do the plans you are considering offer? Don't lock yourself into a plan that does not cover what disk space you may need in the future. Many affordable web hosting providers offer a good amount of disk space that should cover your needs well into the future if you choose the correct plan.
Do they have a good service record? Is the host you are considering reliable, are they down a lot, or very rarely? This is an important factor when choosing a hosting provider, nothing discourages visitors to your site more than a "this page is currently unavailable" message, that message could be a potential lost sale if your website is business oriented. Of course you will need to expect some downtime, every host needs to perform maintenance on their servers from time to time, but look for hosts that offer uptime guarantees.
