How to Choose a Web Hosting Plan

There are hundreds of companies offering web hosting. The differences between them can be huge so it is important to choose the right one. If you pick a poor service provider your page might not perform as it should and you can start losing visitors. Depending on the purpose of your website, this can also result in a significant loss of your profits.

We believe that the best thing to do is to use only the big and reputable hosting companies that have been around for some time. We are not saying that all the small web hosts are bad, but unless you know the company or at least someone who has already good experience with them, we would suggest to use the big ones. Such companies usually provide top-notch customer service which is one of the most important features of any web hosting plan.

On this website we included only the companies with hundreds of thousands of customers and decent history. Most of them have been established during the Internet boom in the mid-1990s and proved their qualities by dominating the web hosting market until these days. We might include the smaller hosts in the future, but as of now we prefer to list only the proven ones.

Choosing a hosting provider is one thing but choosing a hosting plan is another one. Small websites will usually run perfectly with the basic hosting plans. Unless you need a feature that is included in a more advanced plan we would suggest you to pick from the basic ones and save yourself some money in the long run. Higher plans usually offer multiple domains that can be hosted within the same hosting package. Some of them might offer unlimited disk space, unlimited bandwidth, etc. These plans are designed for experienced webmasters who want to run multiple websites. The most advanced plans will include special features like dedicated IP address or a free SSL certificate. Such plans are aiming at professional business websites or e-shops.

We have created a comparison of the most popular hosting plans from the big and reputable hosting companies to give you some ideas what are the differences between them. There is also an option to search for suitable web hosting plans based on your needs. Last but not least, we have reviewed every company mentioned in the comparison.

We hope you will find our website useful and that it will help you to make the right decision.
