Speed Even if a site can be available 99.9%, if it
is slow loading, it can greatly affect the success of your website. Most
Internet users do not want to waste their time just waiting for a single page
to load unless it is the only page with the type of information they seek. So,
choosing a hosting provider that has fast servers and good connections to the
Internet, even during peak periods is crucial to the success of your website. A
reliable way to tell download speeds offered by hosting providers is to look at
the sites they host, note their download speed, taking into account the amount
of data downloaded in each case currently. It may not be easy to find websites
hosted by a hosting provider, but research newsgroup is a good tool to use.
Some hosting providers give you examples of sites they host if requested.
Since the physical location of the servers will
play a role in download speeds, you might consider hosting your website with a
hosting provider close to where you expect most visitors to reside . This can
be a city, a country or even a continent. If your site is about renting a house
in Manila then the most likely visitors are people living in Manila. The wise
choice would be a host that provides its hosting services in this place, in
this case Manila. You can even get concessions on bandwidth because most of
your traffic is local. You may find that the performance for your visitors has
improved considerably since being transferred data does not need to travel as
far. On the contrary, if you leave in parts of the developing world consider
hosting your site with a provider in North America, Europe and in some
countries in Asia. Most developing country service providers have very limited
Internet connections, because they depend mainly on satellite links. This is
particularly the case for the locations where large amounts of data be
transferred. It would also be preferable if the hosting provider you choose
will allow you to upgrade or downgrade your account at any time for you to save
and maximize your account at the same time.
