Cheap Website Hosting
This is a continuation of previous articles whose subject is cheap website hosting. We raised the topic, how does one choose from cheap website hosting services in to find a good one, or the best one, or one that is most appropriate for his needs.
The Web Hosting Itself
Most people put first on the list that the web hosting service is indeed up to par, and nowadays, most good web hosting services guarantee 99.9% uptime. However, there are many that don’t fulfill. I know of one very popular free hosting service (with minimal disk space and bandwidth, but a not cheap upgrade to a bigger allotment, where if you go to the forum you will see that every Monday and Thursday one of the servers is down.
At BRap Hosting
At BRap Hosting we are sensitive to the fact that even though the server might be up 99.9% of the time, it is equally true that 99.9% of the users don’t feel that it is up 99.9% of the time. And that is mainly because when we are dealing with shared servers, there is competition, so to speak, for system resources, and sometimes one user ties up the system in such a way that the other users feel a lack of response. It is not uncommon the situation where even though your site doesn’t come up on the browser, still you have ftp access. That which you have ftp access shows that the server is not “down”.
Therefore at BRap Hosting we use servers where it is felt, as much as possible on a shared server, that the job is being done like it’s supposed to. In a cheap website hosting environment, which implies a shared hosting platform, it is difficult to produce what seems like 100% response 100% of the time. But at least at BRap Hosting we actively work for it.
