Web Hosting
         By Lisa S. Lawless, Ph.D., Holistic Wisdom C.E.O.

Choosing a reliable web host can be one of the most important decisions you make for your online business and is not something that should be taken lightly. If you think that most hosting services are created equally, think again. Over the last few years I've had my web sites hosted with three different companies. Below are some of the facts I wish I had known before I made the crucial decision on where to host my sites.

Web hosting falls into one of three categories, so let's consider the options you have:

Option 1 - Free Web Hosting: This is your basic no frills hosting with a few megabytes of storage and usually no customer support, slow servers plus you cannot use your own domain name.

Option 2 - Budget Web Hosting: Usually costs between $9.95-$20.00/month. This type of hosting generally offers you the bare essentials. Expect very little in the way of real support along with frequent server downtime.

Option 3 - Full Service Web Hosting: With Adult Friendly Web Hosting (the company we trust, use, and recommend), packages start at $15.00 per month. With this option you get tons of storage space, lightning fast servers along with live support 24 hours a day, 365 days a year should you have a problem.

Budget Hosting Can End Up Costing You More!

At first glance the choice may not be very clear to someone who is new to the Internet. You may be thinking to yourself, "why not go with the free or budget hosting and save a few dollars every month." I used to think this way myself until I learned my lesson the hard way.

Let me explain why your hosting decision deserves careful consideration. While free web hosting might be okay for personal, family or hobby web sites, it is completely inappropriate for business use. If you are hoping to operate a profitable business online you will need much more than a free hosting service can ever offer you. This means more storage, fast servers, 24-hour support and your own domain name. If you are doing business online and you don't have your own domain name you are seriously hurting your credibility. Remember you only get one chance to make a good impression.

Budget web hosting sounds like a good choice upon first look. The problem with budget hosting is that they set their prices very low so they can sign up lots of new customers without providing quality services such as customer service or even keeping your site online. I found this out when my last budget host had their server crash and my site was down for over a week. The truth is that web-hosting companies of this type will actually cost you money in the form of slow and overloaded servers. This means more downtime for your site, which will result in lost sales to you. The bottom line is this- if you are losing sales you are losing money.

This brings us to full service web hosting, which is professional, high quality web hosting and costs just as much as budget web hosting. Why would you pay $15.00 per month to receive less service, options, and reliability from a budget web host? The difference between a mediocre web hosting company and an excellent company is that with Adult Friendly Web Hosting 99% up time guarantee, you will never have to worry about losing even one customer. With budget hosts your site may experience frequent downtime which means that you risk losing much more than just one customer.

If you are serious about your online business, go with a strong company that has been around for a while, has a great reputation for customer satisfaction and superb customer support. I am proud to say that the company I now use for web hosting is Adult Friendly Web Hosting. They have more than exceeded my expectations and needs in every way.

Now that you have the facts, I invite you to join our growing mass of "web wise" customers at Adult Friendly Web Hosting. Simply put, Adult Friendly Web Hosting offers the best web hosting on the Internet. I wouldn't trust my web hosting with anyone else - and neither should you.
