This site was designed and created for people like yourselves looking for web hosting and other related information. We provide helpful tips and knowledge for a wide range of users, from those just starting out with the internet and those who already know the in's and out's about web hosting.

• Website Hosting
  
  

  There are currently thousands of website hosting companies flooding the marketplace. With Web Hosting Resources help, however, you'll know exactly what to look for when comparing one company's plan with another's. Before choosing any web hosting package you must first determine four things: how much server space you need, how much traffic you expect, your potential need for e-commerce solutions, and the level of security you need.

• Disk Space
  For small start-up businesses, 100MB of disk storage should be enough for a basic site. If graphics and/or multimedia files are an important part of your site, however, you may need 1000MB or more. Basic web hosting plans offering 100MB of storage can be found for as little as $3.99/month. For just a few dollars more, storage capacity can be increased tenfold or more.

• Website Traffic
  In order to make sure that all of your customers are able to access your site, you need to have sufficient bandwidth available. Whether you need the ability for your site visitors to download 5GB of content per month or 50GB, there is always a website hosting plan available to meet your needs. Look for a company that provides up-to-the minute reports on your monthly traffic so that as your business grows you can make sure you the plan you originally selected is still the right plan for your business.

• E-Commerce and Security
  While some businesses today gain from the Internet through subscription services or advertising revenues, more and more are using website storefronts as a replacement for (or a companion to) traditional brick-and-mortar stores. For businesses looking to sell goods over the Internet, shopping cart technology is essential. To protect customer transactions, SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connections should be used. SSL connections may not be available with basic packages, so be sure to read the details about any plan you are considering before signing up.

• Unique Website Hosting Plans
  For added security and reliability, many website hosting companies also offer flexible, dedicated server plans that can be specifically tailored to meet your business's unique needs. With a dedicated server, you rent and maintain complete control over the server on which your site is stored. Your dedicated server should have a redundant power source, an HVAC system, and internet connectivity provided via 10/100 Ethernet.
