"K.I.S.S. Web Hosting" is my way of explaining the "Keep It Simple Stupid" principles of web hosting and how anyone can use them to help get their business or website noticed and how to do this as inexpensively as possible. When you keep things simple you in turn learn how to save time, money, and frustration.
Many people I talk to make web hosting out to be something more complicated than it really needs to be. As with most things in life it's just not. I mean we are not talking about Rocket Science here are we? Definitely not!
There are many web hosting companies out there. Most are very reputable and offer many convenient features packaged in a manner to help you keep things simple.
Some of the more common features that seem to help most of us include: providing a domain name, site building tools, email accounts, blog and forum tools, up time, the money-back guarantee, and quality customer service and support.
If you are new to this arena you may be wondering if you should go with one of those companies that are offering you "the world" of web hosting for FREE. Well, my advice to you would be you get what you pay for (or in this case what you don't pay for). Companies that offer unlimited space, unlimited domains, 100% up time, etc. - all for FREE will probably be very hard (if not impossible) to contact when you do have a problem or an issue with your site and need their service.
Today many of the best most reputable web hosts provide you with everything you will need for just pennies a day. So to not go with one is probably in the end just going to give you more headaches than its worth. You're probably not in the business of spending countless hours trying to find the "perfect" web hosting company. We as consumers when shopping for a web host need to decide what is really more important for us. Usually the most important factor ends up being customer service.
As with most businesses if you cannot find someone to help you when there is a problem it will just leave you feeling helpless, upset, and frustrated. Since most of these reputable hosting companies provide similar features and do so at a cost of less than $10 per month, some less than $5, ensuring that you get a host who is there for you when an issue arises allows you to concentrate on the more important things for your particular business.
Keep things simple and choose the web host company that fits your needs.
