Hosting seekers read this before you select a hosting company, it helps you to avoid scams …

1/ Don’t trust hosting companies offering unlimited-bandwidth package
There are many dishonest hosting providers who claim to provide unlimited disk space and bandwidth. So never trust these companies which are the master resellers of other hosting company whose main aim is to attract the clients. Once the company is able to generate clients, your account will lose its viability. The companies close your accounts and provide you with illogical reasons like cosuming excessive bandwidth, etc. And these are just excuses for reducing their server’s traffic. So always try hosting your website on reliable hosting companies or on your own server else you might face suspension very soon.

2/ Don’t trust alpha providers or master resellers
My second tip to you would be not to trust alpha providers or master resellers. The master resellers provide you with luring offers of web hosting for $5 per month or $30 for a year. Can you imagine your website hosting for just $30 per year? Here initially you will be able to avail the services but gradually with time, either your account will be suspended due to overload or you might face problem with the hosting.

Also the alpha master resellers have the same story. They charge you minimal at $60 per year but the services provided by them are also unsatisfactory. With the passage of time, you will face suspension of the account. Your account will be overloaded or you will experience problems with the service such as server down or losing of database etc. The companies exist to make profits and hosting large number of accounts can often deteriorate the quality of service been provided to you.

Also can you imagine that the hosting companies functioning with just $150 to $200 per month since they are charging you $60 per year? If your provider is using an 8 GB RAM on 100 Mbps port, and then your monthly charges are $300 - $400 per month. So no company works for negative balances in their balance sheet. They aim for high profits. So now you can actually know why you should not trust these companies.

3/ Don’t trust hosting websites that built with a free template
A free-template website company indicates that it does not have enough money to support a unique-website design for the company. So can you imagine trusting these companies for hosting your website?

4/ Find hosting companies with dedicated servers and avoid resellers
Always try to find companies which own their dedicated servers. Avoid resellers and alpha master resellers since they don’t provide you with quality service. They just give you false promises. So beware of getting into their trap.

5/ Avoid excessive cheap hosting plans
Be cautious of selling the proxy’s on your servers since they use loads of CPU and again your server will be overloaded with the files. Also it will increase your bandwidth.
You should have around $1000 in your hands to start business requiring a website hosting. Else leave the plan of starting this kind of business.

Initially seek the web hosting companies. Then find out the details of the company, contact them for relevant details and search for comments on their services in Forum websites . Make sure that you don’t pay one year’s advance to the company without knowing them completely.

You will certainly have a good start of online business by referring to my above suggestions on choosing hosting company.
