There are many things you will need to consider when you will be selecting a good web hosting plan for your website and if you are not technically knowledgeable or aware of how things function, always get a professionals opinion as there are so many factors in this subject that it is nearly impossible to grasp them all completely in a short time as you will have to understand the whole mechanism and process that entails web hosting.
Simply put, there are two kinds of websites, one is dynamic and the other is static. The ones you would normally come across are the static ones and most probably your own would be a static website and these are hosted on shared hosting. In shared hosting, groups of websites even though they have their own individual space on the hosting server all have the same IP (which stands for Internet protocol). An IP is the identity of your website and if your pages are going to remain same like websites which detail an outline of a company, contact, etc than this is the hosting technology for you.
If you are planning to host a commercial website which is meant to do business on the Internet by exchanging personal information and financials as a buy and sell or auction website, then you would require a dedicated hosting. In dedicated hosting your website will have its own IP (Internet protocol) which will enable you to have your own independent identity for digital certificates which you will require to do business online. Dynamic websites are much more complicated because they all need a back end database on which their information is processed and stored while being continuously changed. This link to a back end database makes it unique compared to the static website where everything remains the same unless the website developer changes the information or text, etc.
In order to be successful in this endeavor, you have to start by creating your own list of what you expect from your web hosting company, do you need a shared or dedicated hosting, how many e mails do you need, what other features are required by you in order to make your website successful, these are the main factors which govern a successful selection. Some people start out by looking for the lowest priced or cheapest web hosting service, which is one of the most incorrect ways to start. Price is a major factor in any business but if your selection is primarily based only on price than most probably you will be looking towards a very anxiety filled and perplexed future for your website and yourself. The success of your website will be very much dependent upon a good web hosting and if you make an incorrect decision in this stage, the benefit of making the website could back fire as when people visit your website it might not open or open too slow which is something you would not want to happen.
