Not too long ago cheap web hosting, wasn't really that
cheap. The lowest prices were about $30-$50/month.
There were no deals out there. Luckily the market
has changed alot over the years. Budget Web Hosting
is the most competitive sector in the web hosting market.
The prices usually range from $3-$10 per month and attract
many customers who are looking to find cheap web hosting
solution for their personal or business web sites.
You may be asking yourself how such low
prices are possible. Budget hosts can offer such low
prices because they take a bulk approach towards hosting.
Therefore it is not uncommon to find hundreds of web
sites located on a single server. This is not a problem
as long as the server is not overloaded.
When considering purchasing budget web
hosting, consumers must be aware that the options they
will receive will be rather limited; but often will
be sufficient for standard web sites. A standard budget
hosting plan for example would include support for:
PHP, CGI, mySQL, Perl but not ASP, ASP .NET, MS SQL
or Cold Fusion.
Technical support will also be more limited. Less support
staff will be available due to smaller profit margins.
Rather than having a customer's question answered in
1 hour, it will typically take about 24 hours.
HostLead's advise is not to purchase any
unlimited bandwidth or unlimited web space hosting plans.
Unlimited bandwidth or space does not exist. Both are
limited resources. All these unlimited deals result
in overloaded servers, which is exactly where you do
not want your web site to be hosted on. A slow loading
or not responding web site is something nobody wants.
Save yourself some time by avoiding these web hosting
companies.
Budget web hosting should never be considered for mission
critical e-commerce, or even for an internet presence
for small or mid-sized businesses. The best use of budget
hosting services is for personal web sites.
