Don't be fooled, here are 5 things to look for a web hosting company adhere to them if you like it long term.

1. Uptime - make sure the uptime is tolerable for your line of business. There's no 100% uptime. Good uptime can be anywhere from 98% to 99% uptime. 2. Knowledgeable customer support - customer help within 24 to 48 hours and using some sort of trouble ticket is good. Every support should target what is really needed to resolve the issues in quickest possible time and should not appear as guess work. Canned responses only helps the lazy customer technician but not the customer. 3. Hosting specifications - plan for expansion, you might not need huge amount of web spaces and humongous bandwidth as you can see on NameHost.biz today but in the future this will come as a necessity. 4. Reputation of hosting company - if above qualifications are not met better, go with not so famous hosting company. Don't go with hosting company that can't be searched on google and/or yahoo. Read user feedbacks and ratings as well regarding the hosting company. 5. Price - when all qualifications previously mentioned are all satisfied, then see and compare the prices. You get what you pay for, price is not always the issue when it comes to hosting. Ask the sales team if these are the flat rates to pay for in the package, how much to add if you exceed current bandwidth in the plan, look for discount coupons, current special offers from current members. Some cheap prices are too good to be true.
