Domain Registration

In this article I want to discuss different steps to follow while choosing a WebHosting server before you host your WebSite. I will also discuss how important it is to choose the best hosting provider and why?

​Let me tell you the situation and continue with what I want to tell.

Situation​

When a friend/colleague of you suggested to show yourself on WorldWideWeb(WWW).

​That's it. A lot of questions comes to your mind and start thinking about what is domain?, what is webhosting?, where to get the design done? and how to bring  it to online?. It finally pushes you to confusion and you will be in doubt whether I can do all this?

​Yes, I am going to explain all the above questions you had.

A website is a online Face for the business you deal. To host a website you do ​require Domain, Web Hosting space and a perfect Design for your website.

How to choose Domain and WebHosting ?
ChooseYour DomainName
Domain Name​

Domain name, it represents title of your business​ or your entity. A domain name is an identification string that defines authority/control within the internet.

Website name and domain name are same. They are physical address on the internet. Domain name help the people to remember your business on Internet.

It is very difficult when you try to select your domain name. Make sure, it should represent your business, easy to spell and easy to remember.​

Suggestion: Select the short name.​

​Is Domain Name enough to show you on internet?

No, you need a Web Hosting space to store all your files, email's which will help to represent your website to public. 

Web Hosting Provider
How to choose WebHosting

This web space will be provided by Web Hosting companies. They provide control panel(cPanel) ​where you can manage website files, your email accounts associated with the website, can manage forwarders, re-directions and many more.

Website Designing

​Also, I forget to mention about the web designing. Now, its  very simple with FastWebHost hosting. They provide a free SiteBuilder where a layman can design a website with basic requirements on a fly.

Server Speed and Uptime​

Server speed is important when you host your website in a hosting server and as well up-time is one of  the major factor you need to considering while selecting your ho​sting server. 

It is important that your hosting provider is not hosting hundreds of domains in one server where you were provided the hosting space.​

Server Location

It is important to select the location of the webhosting server. If your business is in India, I recommend you to choose the closest data centre for the best loading times

FastWebHost, is providing hosting servers from different premium data centre locations. From India, Lancing(USA), Phoenix(USA), Amsterdam(Netherlands), Germany and Hong Kong.

Web Hosting Support
24/7 Customer Support

Before choosing your web hosting provider, you should check if the company is providing 24/7 online support or not? As you are new to web hosting you would be having "N" number of doubt's before you upload your content to your server. 

If they had online support, it would be easy for any new customer to manage their website. Company with phone support would be an added advantage.

MoneyBack Policy

I can recommend you to check the company which you choose provides at least 30 day money back policy. It gives you the feasibility to check if everything is perfect before you continue with them.

Let's see why do you need a website?
