Some tips for choosing a web hosting.

This is a fairly common question I get, not only by friends, but by people who contact me for other reasons, and always ends in the default quick question "How do I choose a good web server / hosting provider?". Well, this is where low vision, and give the usual perolata:Depends. It always depends on many factors. Mainly, the kind of place you want to stay ...

    Is a small site for a company, only to have an internet presence?
    Is it a portal?
    Do you need a lot of space to host files?
    Does it take a lot of transfer because you have many visitors?
    How many email accounts?
    Does the site depends on a programming language? What?
    Do I need a database? What?Here's how to start, you need to draw a small list of site requirements. Generally, all webservers, you get plenty of accommodation space (unless you're thinking of launching your own YouTube), but they offer the necessary transfer? Keep in mind always, if you hire the plan, will support the user traffic to the site will have at least the next 6 months to a year.Also to be considered is whether to allow host more than one domain (multihost), if they offer backup plans (if we consider our important information, it would be advisable to offer), if they support any web programming language (PHP, Java , ASP, etc) and if it is possible to connect to a database. It would be advisable, even offering some ease to install some web applications (such as CMS, Forums, accountants).Anyone hosting then it does not matter? No, no. It is important, before choosing a company that offers a plan or a tempting price, do a little research, internet search other people's opinions about the company, who have had experiences, if they respond positively to queries, etc.. It is essential if we encounter unexpected surprises later.
