How to choose cheap web hosting.

August 27th, 2008 by Pankaj

If you are just about to start your first website, then you must be looking for some cheap web hosting providers. Cheap web hosting is a great solution for those who want to create a personal site and those looking to host a small or medium-sized business as well. Regardless of what platform you choose to host on whether it’s Windows or Unix, it is important to find a host that can truly fulfill the requirements of your website. A good rule of thumb is to choose a provider that can accommodate the webmaster for personal, professional or business hosting needs.

There is definitely nothing wrong with taking the cheap route towards web hosting. However, there are certain qualities you should expect from any provider. First and foremost, you want to purchase service with a company who is honest and backs their claims, one that delivers as promised.

You also want a hosting company who offers assurance. You need to be assured of receiving the best possible service for your personal, professional or business needs. Most providers advertise an uptime guarantee of 99.9%, a percentage that has become standard in the industry. If you’re hosting a website in a shared server environment, the uptime may be questionable. This is when it helps to do a little more research to find out what measures a particular company is taking to back this claim. A reliable company will protect sensitive data with redundant backup systems, 24/7 monitoring and physical security. Downtime is never a good situation as it can have a negative impact on the operation of your business.

You should also check what web hosting rating sites says about a host. Read some web hosting tutorials that will also help in choosing a good cheap host. If I’ll be looking for a cheap web host then I’ll check if that hosting provider received any web hosting awards or not.

Before choosing a host for your business website hosting or personal website hosting, you should check the following thing:

Buying a computer and being able to write in notepad or MSWord, or learning how to read and write emails and browsing websites, people thinks they knows enough about computer. These types of people are the victims of spam email, fishing because they don’t too much about security and other minimum knowledge that a computer user should know. They must take a basic computer courses from a well know computer training institute.

If you run a business then to run your business smoothly, happily and efficiently, you must take leadership training.

Flash Animation or Normal Image??

November 17th, 2007 by Pankaj

Like most people, I also like those eye caching flash animations. But unfortunately search engines are not smart enough to read those .swf files.

Recently I found an article at icontact community about SEM Strategies and fond this:

….. you may see many of them remove that cool-looking piece of media. Not because they’re finally getting over their brand arrogance, but because many search engines won’t read past the .swf extension in the source code.

So, using a plain image (gif/jpeg/png) with keyword in name and in alt tag is far better then using swf. This will also help to drive traffic from search engines for image search.

Normally, swf files file size are much bigger then normal images, which takes more space and eat lots of bandwidth. So, plain image can also save your bandwidth.
