Cheap web hosting does not pay

Cheap web hosting does not pay


Why ?


Well let me explain with my own story's, I have used various different hosting companies, some where OK, but most had problems, and yes I was trying to use the cheapest I could find.


I was using a UK based company, but they had all sorts of issues, and finally they where hacked and everyone who had a site hosted lost all their data, that was the point when I started to back up everything, including my database.


Its funny how so many people overlook backing up there database, they back up there websites, emails etc., but not their database.


That's why I developed my own system, and made it low cost, so that many many people would be able to back up their own database quickly and efficiently, with out having to know lots of technical stuff.. check it out at

So I digress, I then moved to another hosting company, only to find out that they did not like people selling or promoting anything to do with Internet Marketing, I was Soon told I should have read their terms and conditions page.


So lesson learnt read the terms and conditions, read the whole page, before you sign up.


I moved again, to what looked like a great company they certainly had a great shop front on the net.


They where low cost, but not quite so good,all was good until I started to expand and try new things with my websites, I then found out that there where limitations with their control panel, they had their own proprietary control panel.


they did not seem to use the well know CPanel control panel that every one seems to ask for when they ask about setting up your websites. Maybe I need a hosting company that has CPanel.


there own control panel was making life very difficult indeed, the hosting was good, but it was only good for the very basic of websites,and then I found out this great company could not answer my technical enquiries, they were only a reseller, they had no back up.


Now I know that the Internet is huge and we can all get lost in at times, and even some of the bigger and better companies do not stand out.


I say this because eventually, I purchased another bit of software for my websites and marketing, and the person selling it suggested I try Hostgator, for my website hosting, they had done various experiments and found that Hostgator worked well with this software. I had never heard of them, Hostgator ?


Well I checked them out, surprise Hostgator is not expensive, in fact they are very reasonable, I host lots of websites, and they make it very easy to host and control them all from one page.


And they use CPanel, I can not tell you how much better this system is, I have not yet, had a problem installing or using scripts,software etc, and in fact when I have had a few problems I have used their 24/7 help desk, and yes they do help and answer the problems.


So I can only suggest that if you need website hosting now or in the future, check out hostgator, you find a link to them here
