In addition to the company’s key product information and many companies also want to run forums and blogs to promote contact with customers. Often the desires are for a small online store. Not always the hoster can fulfill all desires, so the companies are well ahead of the situation, to change providers.

The selection of hosting providers is huge, but this certainly complicates the matter. The PC world, sister publication of COMPUTER WEEK, has compiled the most important criteria for web hosting and explains technical terms about the operation, design and construction of web pages.

Webspace by the Internet provider is a stopgap

Webspace is in many DSL flat rate offers now. However, the provider has deals severely limited, so get Alice customers for example, no full-fledged second-level domain name. It is not suitable for business pages.

T-Home offer offers as part of offers Call & Surf Comfort a real second-level domain, with any names, but neither an FTP access, which is essential for a serious care of the site, nor Skriptsprachen- and database support. Although it can be designed with the help of HTML and CSS Web Sites, for demanding and professional online quotes it is not enough.

Two very important criteria in selecting the right hosting package, the size of the web space and traffic volume. As long as you put above all HTML and PHP files with a few well-compressed images to your webspace and your site has just a few hundred visitors per month, and it has also comparatively small packages, this should be sufficient for you.

Larger than 200 KB is likely the homepage of a website itself with many photos (if they are optimized) hardly fall, most websites are likely to be rather small.

Therefore important: You should always have the option to switch to another tariff or, where appropriate, to a Managed Server.

However, few users are willing to pay for round-the-clock support separately the security of the site applies to users as the most important criterion for the selection of an external hosting service.

Also plays a crucial role of technical support. More than three quarters of respondents expect a round-the-clock care through their Web-Hoster. However, 70 percent are not willing to pay for it. The right to obtain top-Support for nothing, “the provider will in the long run, however, can not meet,” warns Thomas straws, CEO of Inter Genia AG. “Either the support costs factored in the hosting prices and drive them according to the height, or the customer pays for each support case separately.”
