While choosing your hosts you should first decide your criteria.

Disk Space & Bandwidth:: Does your hosts provides you with the adequate Disk space as per your requirements. Are your emails and log files counted towards your total storage, or just your web files? Look for the web hosts which provide you with 100 to 500 megabytes. Because as the there are new innovations in the internet world your site will definitely need more space. So better is to have as much as you can. In case of bandwidth remember that your traffic on your site goes up as your site gets well known. Because you establish your site to gain more & more visitors on that because that only ultimately results into expansion of your business. Also look after hosting company which send you an email as you are about to run out of bandwidth, letting you know that your site may go offline if you exceed the quota. This way, you can upgrade your plan as per your requirements.

Technical support:: Make a note that your web hosts is functional for 24/7. Just test them by sending them emails in weekends & then check their response time.

Reliability & server uptime:: This is really crucial decision which you need to do while choosing web hosts. Because if your site remains down for most of the times then you will loose your visitors & if your site runs slow then your visitors will feel it exasperating. Also make sure your web hosts will provide you 99.9 % uptime guarantee that means your site should not remain offline for more than 9 hours in year.

Price:: If you pay a lot of money on something, you should get something of quality in return. So look for the host that provides you with suitable plan at reasonable price. Look for at least a basic 30 day money back guarantee. Because if you get money back guarantee then it means that the company is really concerned about you.

Backup:: This is really acute point while choosing web hosts. Because it happens oftenly that your site gets deleted by you or gets hacked by ethical hacker. So always prefer to look for web hosts which provide you with weekly backup of your site. If this service is not included then just don’t consider them.
