How to choose UK website hosting

Shaun Garrod Shaun Garrod

With more and more people creating web pages of their own, it can be quite a daunting task when it comes to selecting a website host from the many hundreds that exist. However, this challenge need not be so daunting and by following a few simple guidelines, you will know how to choose the UK website hosting that is right for you. Read on to learn more.

Budget considerations and website usage

With so many UK web hosts available, it can be somewhat tricky when it comes to choosing what is right for you. However, by following a few simple rules as outlined below, you'll have the best UK hosting package to suit your needs. Set yourself a budget Give yourself a budget and try not to go over it. When choosing a package, it can often be the case that once you've started to make an order online, there will often be added 'bonuses' that offer you more functionality than you probably need. Don't be tempted to take these up as it is just the hosting company trying to get more money out of you. Always try and ensure that you know exactly what you want before making any purchase. What is your website for? No doubt you already know who you expect your target audience to be. For low bandwidth websites that might only be viewed by family and friends, a cheap hosting package will probably suffice. These can literally cost just a couple of pounds per month. For those who may be using their website for more professional reasons, then business hosting solutions will probably be the best bet.
Do you need a domain name? Many packages will come with a free domain name (such as yourname.com for example) that usually requires renewing every one to two years. However, some packages will charge extra for domain purchasing and domain registrations. Therefore, this is also another thing to keep an eye on. Another thing to realise is that buying a domain name can also make your website look far more professional.

The best place to buy UK website hosting services

Always compare the features of several hosting services before committing to purchase anything from them. Whilst there is no 'best' place to go, with a little bit of work on your part, you'll be able to find the perfect hosting company that suits not only your pocket but also your needs.
