Web Site Hosting is more than just renting some space on a third party's computer system. You have to ask yourself the following questions:
- Is this company's system secure - after all it is going to route all my email in and out of the company.
- Is it fast - a slow site gives a bad impression
- Is my web-site and email running in England - this is for two reasons:
- Your transactions will be subject to English Law.
- Should you have a problem you will be working in English Time, not 8 hours behind or ahead.
It is cheaper to host your web site in the USA, South America or some other far-flung place - but at a cost! Your web site and email are going to become a working part of not only your existing network but also an integral part of your business - KEEP IT LOCAL!
