How To Shop and Save On Website Hosting
(Page 1 of 3 )
"What's your web address?" From small "mom and pop" home-based businesses to mega- stores, people ask this question in business every single day.Even if you only operate a small, local business, if
you don't have a website (or at least email) people
honestly look at you funny.
A few years ago, website hosting was one of the largest
expenses connected with setting up a website. Now, with
dramatic drops in pricing, website hosting can actually
present the least costly component of operating a website.
However, before you run out and sign up for $2-a-month
website hosting and wake up tomorrow filled with regret,
take 5 minutes right now and learn the main points to
consider when evaluating any website host.
Total Storage
How much space do you get to store your
website files? If you operate a small website with a
handful of pages and only a couple of pictures per page,
you can get by with 5-10 MB (megabytes) of disk space or
less. However, if your site contains dozens of pages and
hundreds of pictures, you may need a hosting plan with 10-
25 MB of space.
