It seems that there are more and more hosting companies setting up business every day and the average user can be forgiven for not being able to tell one from the other.
The most important part of any hosting service lies in the word “host”. In the real world a good host looks after their guests and makes certain that they want for nothing. So it ought to be with your web hosting provider.
Your web host should be sure that you, their client, wants for nothing. That the service which you buy from them is as advertised; and that you don’t suddenly discover that something is missing. It would be like going out to a party and finding out ‘you’ won’t be getting sweets or that even though the valet parking took your car at the door, you’re expected to walk five blocks to retrieve it once it’s time to return home. You would not be happy – and who could blame you?
A web host provides disk space and bandwidth as a bare minimum. A fair webhost gives added value in the form of email accounts, statistics and a user-friendly interface to manage your account. A good webhost provides software services and databases to make creating and maintaining website content all possible from one location.
A great web host has an attitude. The attitude is like that held by any great host in the real world. You get the feeling that you are in a good and safe place. You are comfortable that you are in the right place because the host has everything under control.
And exactly what do they need to have under control to make you feel safe and like a carefree guest at a party? The number of guests is pleasant and you don’t feel crowded out; You feel welcome and valued; The food and drinks service comes around regularly and dependably; There is adequate security to keep gate-crashers away; Everything you expect is provided as part of the service and most importantly you want the host to recognise you and be aware and attentive to your needs.
