Why I started this web hosting review blog?

Unlike past more and more companies are focusing their businesses nature online. In order to showcase products and find potential customers online the very first priority is to find a domain name registrar and a web hosting company. But we don't know which web host will fit with our nature of business, Which web hosting provider provides optimum server up time, support services etc. Believe me, I have suffered many business failures just because of server down problems. I understood at just an age of 16 years that I am talented in IT field. My hunt for talent finished with the launch of my first website in "form 3" and since then till present I am constantly devoting my time and energy towards IT industry. The most tough thing for me as a new buy in IT was to choose a good web hosting provider for my website. Believe me I have changed my website hosting server 3 times in a year because of server down problems. There are many web hosting companies with their tall claims like quality services, award wining support, 99.9% up time guarantee etc, but all these claims are not met by most of the companies. The point which always strike my mind was a review service. A tool-free service to perform web hosting reviews. You must be thinking that I am going crazy now but I always dream that, what if  a web hosting company ask you to take web hosting services on a review basis for say a month or two and then charge you, So in that way it will help you perform their web hosting review and make up your mind to continue with them. Though that type of web hosting reviews is only possible if web hosting companies let us do but since they charge for web hosting weather you want it on review basis or for use, this limits an Individual from performing web hosting reviews. To solve this review problem, I spend my money and time to review each webhosting companies personally and help you choose the right web host for your business. So that when you take web hosting services you forget about performing reviews and feel comfortable in choosing the web host for your business.

How do I perform web hosting reviews?

I divide my web hosting review procedure in two phase:

Phase 1: simple and general reviews
Phase 2: Complex and Advanced reviews.

Reviews Phase 1: This review phase is simple and is just a general review of a web host. I simple check for things like Plan types, It's cost, Up time guarantee, Trust and Authority, Experience, Services, Exclusive offers etc. After reviewing all these I simply go for the web hosting. I pretend like I am a new buy who don't even know like how to pay, Create email id, Upload files through ftp programs. I just play my self like a new guy who is not familiar with even control panel and this helps me review their support services. Here I also try to test the knowledge of their technical team by raising issues like virus problems, scripts installation etc.

Review Phase 2: This review phase starts after the completion of review phase 1. This phase is not a general phase i.e. It involves those activities which a normal user will never perform for web hosting review. The review phase starts by testing server speed using speed test meter. Then using Pingdom services to completely review every aspects of web hosting. Since my review process involves buying web hosting and and using their servers in order to tackle real world problems, this piece of process helps me give out much realistic reviews for my blog readers.


How do I evaluated web hosting review score?

I evaluate the web hosting review score of a web hosts by using multiple factors score:

1. Reliability Sore
2. Speed Score
3. Usability Score
4. Features Score
5. Price worth Score
6. Customer support Score

1. RELIABILITY:- The the most important aspect of all when it comes to review a web hosting company is reliability. For a business to succeed online it's web host should provide 99.9% server reliability and up time guarantee. Major Search engines like Google, Yahoo, Msn etc will  never love a website which has server fault or is having server downtime and if they don't love it they will never put your website high up in their search results and you end up loosing customers. Server up time and reliability is what most of the SEO companies want to insure first. It is well known in SEO community that server down time has serious negative impact in your SEO effort. So in my web hosting review score, reliability is in the topnotch priority.



2. SPEED SCORE: The second most important aspect which I look in a web hosting company while performing their hosting reviews is Speed.
A web hosting can include a plan for unlimited disk space and bandwidth  in their sales page but might limit your web server speed so that if your website gets too popular and is using high server bandwidth, by limiting the speed helps web hosting companies to limit the use of their server because your website has access to limited data transfer/sec and this makes your site busy and it loads very poorly. Now this practice will help a webhosting company but for a website, it's something which a webmaster should never let happen and it is very annoying to your site's loyal visitors. So here I check different speed parameters and then I assign speed score points to get added in web hosting reviews report.

3. USABILITY SCORE: Their is no point in neglecting the usability factor when performing web hosting reviews. It is tendency of newbies to neglect the usability factor just because of  either lower price or higher bandwidth offer. But most webmasters know the importance of Usability.e.g. A task like WordPress installation can be done either manually or if the web hosting company provides simple scripts in control panel for single click CMS installation. With simple scripts in control panel can save your lot amount of time and hence make you more productive. Another thing when it comes to usability is the use of control panels. There are many control panels available in the market but the most easy and usable one is C panel. So it is important to choose a web host that provides c panel control panel for use. So here I check different usability parameters and then I assign usability score points to be added in web hosting reviews report.

4. FEATURES SCORE:  Features are indeed important in web hosting reviews. What most of the people think of features in a web hosting plan is disk space and bandwidth. Though disk space and bandwidth are the most important one, but that's not. Think of a web hosting company which provides features like free Google and FB credit, free website submission in yellopages etc. All these features can prove icing in a business growth and one should never miss these features from availing.  So here I check different features and then I assign feature score points to be added in web hosting reviews report.


5. PRICE SCORE:  This review score deals with calculation the worthiness of price. Do you really get return on investment? Though the call is to check ROI and price worthiness but their are other things like easy payment option, money back guarantee, secure payment, privacy policy, billing terms, Tax information etc  which I try to figure out as well.
So here I check ROI and other price features and then assign Price score points to be added in web hosting reviews report.

6.CUSTOMER SUPPORT: If you are new to IT field, customer support will be something which you gonna be needing the most. Since web hosting is a digital product and you have no physical support so customer support plays an important role in both technical and customer support. Things like fast and intelligent technical technical support, online Ticket support, live chat are the Hallmark of a Good web hosting company. In order for me to assign customer support points, I test customer support department of a company by checking there response time and quality of response, Do they really take your call important? etc.
