Choosing a Web Host For Your Website

With the landing of the fibre optic cable in Kenya, many businesses will look forward to own their websites. You are excited about the prospects of getting a website for your business. You have the design in your mind and know exactly on how the website will function. Know to the hard part. Where do you get your ideal website? This question can be the cause of many migraines. There are some of the things you need to know when choosing a web host.

1. Do a simple Google or Yahoo search. Use up to at least five keywords. For example: "Web hosting + Company + Kenya". These are general terms. If you want to go specific, try, "E-commerce + Web host". The less keywords you use, the more the quality of results you will get. Even if someone has recommended a web hosting company for you, do your own research.

2. Go to web reviews. There are many web hosting reviews that you can check out. Try to look at least five of these reviews. There should be three or more sites that come up in all the reviews.

3. So now you should have settled for three possible web hosts. Now the task becomes harder. You have to study what they are offering. Make notes of the difference. What is one offering that the other is not? How much am I going to be charged? How much am I willing to give? What are their payment plans? What is the mode of payment? Write them down. Make sure that what they are offering will add to your hosting needs. You could find an extra value added service in the various web hosting offers. Then with all the facts make a decision and choose one.
