Those who
are looking to get their site live on a freeweb hosting sites should consider a few things that we have mentioned in
this blog post.
The world is
filled with start-up companies. There is a new trend going on these days, i.e.,
to open a firm. People who have worked in big companies for a significant
amount of time have the skills to open their own firm. The business idea would
be similar, but the implementation would be done on a smaller scale, as we are
talking about start-ups.
In today’s
world, the most important thing that start-ups require is an idea and a
website. People have idea, or should I say, they are full of mind-blowing
ideas, so the other thing they require is a website. Creating a website is also
not a difficult thing, as one can do it on his/her own, or hire someone for the
same purpose. The main thing starts after the website has been completed
because then, the job is to get the website live on the web. In other words, the
website needs a host, who will have all the database.
Now, there
are many types of web hosting
available on the internet; some are paid, some are free, some are shared and
some offer dedicated server. So, it will make anybody’s mind spin when he/she
is given the task to choose the right type of hosting because every hosting has
a good amount of advantages and a few disadvantages. So, how can a person
determine as to which web hosting he/she should go for?
For
start-ups, many people advice that free web hosting is perhaps the best option as they don’t have much database to
host, plus they just want a start, so they can compromise on the fact that they
will have to see advertisements on their website, which are neither good, nor
they have any monetizing advantage for them.
The
advantage of the best free web hosting
is that most of the features come at free of cost, plus if the person wants to
add a few features, then that can be easily done by paying a small price. It is
a well-known fact that free web hosting, whether it is free WordPress hosting or freePHP hosting, will have certain limitations, such as a limited bandwidth, a
limited storage and access to the basic features. But, what else does a
start-up require? Once the website is live and people know who you are and what
you are selling, then you can change the host.
You can get
paid hosting where you’ll get more features, more storage, more bandwidth and
every more than the free hosting. At that time, you will also have money to pay
for the hosting, so it won’t pinch you. Now, coming back to free web server again, you have to do a
good research in order to find out the best free host, as there are hundreds of
them available on the web these days. They will all claim to provide the best
features and service, but don’t get lure into their claims. You have to check
all of it on your own. You have to go through the customer reviews and feedback
on different websites in order to be sure whether you should join hands with
that particular hosting company or not.
One thing
that you have to check is the uptime provided by the hosting company. I am sure
that nobody can guarantee 100% uptime, but a company should promise that
whenever the server will go down, they will get it back up in no time. An
assurance of this kind will help inject confidence in the customers that
everything is right about the company.
