The importance of the best choice for Domain Registration & Web Hosting

Most people not pay enough attention to domain registration and web hosting offers. Many people even choose to get these services from one service company, which is usually their hoster. This can cause many troubles. Especially after years.

We have seen things really unbelievable: web hosters changed without any permission of the domain ownder the domain details or deleted it. Or they register on their name and after many years they suddenly stop their services w/o telling, while customers can't acccess anything anymore. This happens more times than anyone would expect.

Always make backups of everything: Databases same like normal content and save them in you independent email acount or download to your computer. Register domains separate from webspace. Most web hoster offer one domain for free. Use something not so important and register your domain and register the important domain with a registrar. Most of the times this is even cheaper as well.

Here a the few rules to follow:

• use not your web hoster for domain registrations but an independent registrar
• choose a big hoster in business for few years
• check what kind of content your hoster accepts
• always make backups of your content and databases
• download backups to your computer or keep them in your third-party email accounts

Tip of the month; April 2011: recommended Web Hosters & Web Space

After more then 10 years in business you maybe can imagine, that we also here made many experiences. And based on this experiences we choose web hosters. Just offering cheap web space is by far not enough. There be many points, which are very important for us. Of couyrse also the price is important, but there are much more important factors:

• a good price
• a real 99.9 percent up (online) time of the servers
• unlimited addon domains
• fast, friendly and qualified customer support
• different payment opportunities
• no "I wanna be a hoster now" companies, but stable, experienced and healthy companies

And now of the most important rules, especially when you want to run more domains: never register through your hoster more then necessary (you usually get one for free). Sometimes hosting companies close their businesses from one day to the next. And if you don't have direct access to the domain handles, this can cause you some serious problems and long fights to get back your domains. Additionally some hosters still ask pretty much much "service fees" for moving domains to another hoster.

You also should look at your hoster, what kind of web sites he allows. There are some hosting companies, you really should stay far away from. Because on your IP adress which you will get, also other customers use. And when for example a spammer uses the same IP address, Google might say, you're in "bad neighbourhood" and your domain never will rank well for its keywords.

Regarding to all this criterias, for us at the moment one of the best web hosters is Just Host. Beside they meet our criterias nearly 100 percent, additionally they offer a 30 days money back guarantee
