How to choose a web host

With so many hosting businesses out there how can you ensure you choose one of the more reputable ones? Here are a few pointers that should help steer you in the right direction:

1. Reliability and speed of access
   Not only should the web host be reliable and fast, it should guarantee its uptime (the time when it is functional). Look for a minimum uptime of 99%. In fact, even 99% is actually too low - it really should be 99.5% or higher.
2. Data Bandwidth
   Bandwidth refers to the amount of data that website visitors can download from a website. You can get an estimate of the amount of bandwidth your website will require if you know how large your pages will be and how many people you anticipate viewing your website on a daily or monthly basis.
3. Disk space
   Disk space refers to the amount of hard disk space the hosting company offers for your web pages. All your documents, graphics, animations, etc. all must fit into this space storage space.
   
4. Technical support
   We will not accept a host which does not have staff working on weekends or public holidays. The technical support should be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (24/7). A web hosting service that cares about you as a customer - and not just a dollar sign.
5. Email, FTP, PHP, SSI, .htaccess, SSH, MySQL, crontabs, Perl
   If you are paying for a site, you really should make sure you have all of these.
