Whether you already have a website or are thinking of setting up shop online, sooner or later you'll have to deal with the issue of web hosting. Although it may seem like a "no brainer," there are actually many factors you'll need to consider before making this important decision.

Your first inclination may be to look only at the cost, thinking "cheaper is better." However, that old saying "you get what you pay for" is especially true in this situation. Here are some of the more important points you'll want to look at when considering your web-hosting firm.

UNIX/NT: The two most popular hosting platforms to choose from are UNIX and NT. UNIX is by far the favorite, as it was the only choice way back in the early days of the Internet. It is easy to configure, great for setting your own file permissions and the platform for most of the free CGI scripts available for download. It is flexible, reliable and supports scripting languages like Perl and PHP3.

Windows NT is from Microsoft. One problem we have with Windows NT servers is a lack of readily available scripts that work on this platform. Also, (unlike UNIX) it seems many NT users need more support from their Web Hosting firm.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT: When you need help you'll want to make sure you can get it. Some web hosts offer phone support. Make sure they offer good tech support as there's nothing more annoying than needing assistance with your web-site and not being able to get it.

SET UP FEE/MONTHLY FEE: Some hosts charge an initial set up fee to get your website set up and running on their server. Make sure you check on this when comparing prices. I've seen monthly fees of others ranging from $9.99 to $39.99, depending on the plan and services offered. My advice to you would be to look past the cheapest and most expensive ends of the scale and go with a mid-range pricing plan to be on the safe side. You should be able to pick up a reliable web-host for less than $15-month.

HARD DRIVE/SPACE ALLOWED: How much server space they're willing to give you is important if you're going to compare accurately. You need to keep in mind the size of your site when deciding how much space you really need. Generally, 5 MB is plenty for a small site. You might want to ask if you can pay for more space should your site ever outgrow its present state.

EMAIL BOXES/POP-3 ALIASES: One thing that's very important is the ability to use different aliases with my domain name.

For example, if your domain is 3-G.com, you may want to set up separate addresses to sort your email like service@3-G.com or support@3-G.com, etc. They may all funnel into the same mailbox, but you can set up filters at your end, making customer service a whole lot easier.

If you have a "wildcard" account, you can set up as many aliases as you like. If you have other employees who will need their own private box, check with the web host to see how many boxes they will allow.

There are many factors to take into account when choosing a webhosting firm. Your web-host is essentially the spine of your site, so you want to make sure that the one you choose is reliable and solid. Nothing can ruin a site faster than an unreliable web-hosting firm.
