According to ipwalk there are over 50.000.000 .com domains registered, now that we have our own cool domain name we need hosting. Finding a webhosting service is a lot easier than thinking up that domain name that is still available. Just send an e-mail to any webhosting company you can find and I’m sure they will be happy to host you. So if we can choose to go with any webhosting company which one do we pick? The logic answer for many people would be: the cheapest one. Webhosting companies are emerging faster than the ‘net can handle! A lot of them are doomed from day one. People are hosting sites at home on a simple PC with a home-use DSL connection. There are certain hosts that we want to avoid. Our website can only generate income as long as it is online, to get the maximum income we need 100% uptime. I don’t think any hosting company can really guarantee 100% uptime (although a lot do!) but whatever… Apart from uptime, the hosting companies advertise with all the utils you get with your hosting, the question is: do you need them? Let me tell you right now: no! While some are really handy all I personaly use are: AWStats and phpMyAdmin, both are included in cPanel
I was lucky to get some free hosting when I just started my first website, thanks to checksum.org After registering my 3rd domain I decided to get a reseller account. The reseller account is big enough to host about 20 websites while only costing me the price of about 5 regular hosting accounts. Yes I know I didn’t want to spend more money then absolutely necessary, but since I don’t have 20 websites I figured I get some paying customers for webhosting and let them cover the complete webhosting costs. So another webhosting company was born: moduhost modular webhosting.
