Webhost selection tips

[subodh]

Following are my personal tips while selecting webhost :
- Check their domain in who-is. If it registered since atleast 2 years or upto upcoming 2 years means either they are in the hosting business since two years or planning to be in for 2 years
-Also look at registration name. If domain registered at the name of company means it's company providing hosting. If it's name of person then he/she may get reseller hosting from somewhere and now reselling it. Not much reliable
-Don't select unlimited offer, such sites most provide to get down
-Ask for fixed price guaranty for atleast a year

very nice tips for choosing the right hosting, thank you!

its true, many people are trying to sell reseller hosting and do a lot of overselling.


you should always get into webhosting forums and get some opinons of other people about the hosting company you want to use.


also ... very important:

are they allowing proxy-sites??

I'm not that keen on many proxy sites. OK they are good for getting traffic from people that use your site during school, uni, work, etc. but I find that some of these proxy sites caches your pages content and then they get listed in Google so you get duplicate content. Also some of the proxies allow their users to browse sites via their proxy while making the ads on the external sites disabled so if they use the proxy to look at your site, then you will not earn from your ads as the user will not see them.
