You can pay just about whatever you want for a web host. There are free web hosting services, budget-priced web hosting, low-cost web hosting, premium-priced web hosting and some flat-out ridiculously over-priced web hosting services.
The strange thing is, the price you pay doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the service you get. High-priced hosts can be good or bad and so can budget, or even free hosts.
It helps to define what makes a "good host." More gigabytes of storage than you will need in a hundred years, free software, bells, whistles and tons of pre-fabed PHP scripts are nice, but they are not crucial. The important things in ranking web hosts are "uptime" and "speed" and "redundancy." What good is having 10GBs of web space, if prospects and existing customers trying to log on to your site get a "down for maintenance, check back soon" notice much of the time.
Likewise, all the free software and bells and whistles in the world will not help you sell a single product if people have to sit staring at their screens and twiddle their thumbs waiting for a slow host to respond.
What does redundancy have to do with anything? Let me answer that with a question. How much work, and how long, would it take for you to recreate your site if your host's system does not have enough built-in redundancy to save your content when one of its storage drives fails?
At Buy Free Webhosting.com, we not only provide all the add-ons like e-commerce shopping carts and integrated scripting, we totally take care of the web hosting business basics – reliability, uptime and customer support.
Our Dual Xeon 2.4GHz servers feed multiple OC48 Sonnet fiber rings connected to eight separate carriers to make sure your pages hit end-user computer screens fast even if part of our backbone goes done. The data center servers themselves have over 100 percent redundancy and we protect the physical plant with close to 600 smoke detectors and a 2200-gallon backup diesel generator. And technicians are on site 24/7 to answer your support questions and make sure the generator gets running in case of a local or national power blackout.
By investing in the best people and hardware, by going above and beyond the call in providing backup and redundancy to our systems, we are not only able to offer our web hosting customers 99.9 percent uptime, we are able to guarantee it.
If you have tried other hosting services and been disappointed by the quality of support and your hosting fees keep going up, then its time to host with someone who will give you personal, professional service and support. Try us out!! You will not be disappointed. If your site doesn't maintain a 99.9 percent uptime rate, we will give you a refund. It's that simple.
Best of Success With Your Internet Business,
Sincerely,
Rocky W. Chaney
