Avoiding The Pitfalls of A Search For Web Hosting

[admin]

The web hosting market is big business and because of that there are thousands of web hosting companies and thousands of sites trying to take a cut of your web hosting spend.

There are a multitude of web hosting resource sites, which for the most part are filled with advertising.

1. Advertising can be useful, but remember that an ad is just marketing hype at the end of the day.
2. Avoid any sites that have Top10 / Top25 lists. These are mostly bogus
3. Avoid simple sites that just have a list of hosts, these are probably all affiliate links

You can research a host using several sites, including FindMyHosting and hostoholic.com. The FindMyHosting site does not have any advertising and no host can buy an unfair advantage.

1. Search for what you need & get hosting plans listed in order of price
2. Check real time host reliability data
3. Reviews that are meaningful and validated

Thank your for the sites that provide independent information about hosting services. I have been trying to find something like that for quite some time.
