    I have tried three different hosting companies. I also teach website design, so I use a reputable hosting company that offers an interface called C-panel. I also wanted the ability to setup a WordPress blog site.

    The one I recommend is here: http://timmyurl.com/hostgator

    It is called Hostgator. There customer service and technical support is Number 1.

    I like:

    Hi,
    I’ll agree with David here, BlueHost definitely is a top recommended webhost. They have some of the best features on their servers and the technical support is simply awesome! They have caused me no problems related to uptime or bandwidth distribution since I chose it as the webhost for my blog. BlueHost is extremely affordable at just $3.95$ a month!

    However, If you want to satisfy yourself, you could check out
    http://www.toptenwebhostreviews.org
    for some great reviews of all the major webhosts out there! I’m sure you’ll find it very easy to make your decision once you go through the reviews on this website which they have collected from different webhost review sites and put them up on a single page!

    Hey!
    Good to see another Singaporean(Actually living in Canada but born in Singapore man miss the laska and satay leh)

    Ok anyways with your question:
    There are literally thousands of web hosting services out there some operate with their own servers and some operate as a reseller meaning they purchase a reseller account on a host and sell it under their own name.

    There are various things you look for when trying to find a host. First since you’re new I’d suggest looking one with excellent support team who are willing to help with your technical questions and general website help.

    Also you want to consider pricing it’s a very competitive market so you can find many great prices at rock bottom prices with various coupon codes.

    Lastly you want to cons

    I’d also caution you looking for reviews online many reviews online are actually sociated and influenced in some way. You can see an excellent host being trashed but a low grade host being praised it can be quite confusing.

    If you’re looking to go with the popular brands with known great service some would be:
    Host Gator, Host Dime, BlueHost

    The cost of hosting varies greatly with shared hosting starting as low as $2-$15 depending on the package you purchase and the host you go with.

    You also need to be caution of overselling host. Many host oversell since they are actually running at deficit. What they do is offer crazy packages claiming you this much harddrive but they can’t actually provide everyone that quoted amount of diskspace.

    Essentially they aspect not everyone will use the max amount of space thus it’s a good promotional stunt making them believe they are getting more for their buck. If it’s managed proper there isn’t really any issue but if not your host can run into quite some issue as slow load time which will affect your SEO.

    A slow host will also affect your Search Engine Rankings and affect user experience thus you want to be careful in choosing hosts.

    VPS and Dedicated hosting do cost a lot more since it’s hard to oversell a VPS or a Dedicated Hosting they can range from $30-$400 depending on where you go and what features you add.

    Generally if you’re just wanting to host one business website I’d go with shared hosting. Depending on the amount of media you have on your website I’d say it’ll take no more than 100 MB space max 1GB and these are high estimations. Most of my own sites only take about 10MB or less depending on the size.

    You don’t need much bandwidth as well you just need to be save 10GB but for a high media site but for a text site with a couple of images I can get about 1000 page views only consuming 100MB so you got plenty of space.

    These are the large hosts however there are also many established and great host which are also reliable the key thing is doing research.

    I’d caution you once again on going with the top ten host recommendations kind of things. Host pay big money to affiliates. They pay $100/ client even shared hosting this is why many of these reviews and these sites will recommend bad host even if they know it’s bad. Also some of these sites are actually owned by the host itself.

    BTW please do get in contact with me:
    benjamin_canada@yahoo.ca
    I’m sure I can help you out with finding a host. I’m an experience internet marketer with vast experience in web development and Search Engine Optimization as well as social media marketing so I’ve spent good couple months doing research on hosts to use.

    I myself in the process of writing an honest site where I can share all the information I researched and found while helping new comers looking to start their own website. I’ll be providing a lot of resource on it shortly such as free guides on web site building, SEO, as well as templates, and advice, and suggestions.

    It’s not fully up yet but do check it out and bookmark it please:

    You’ll be sure to find a lot of useful resource in starting a site there shortly.

    I can also help you with your website building but it’ll be too long to write that much. If you’re not experience with websites though you might want to steer clear of html as it might take too much time to update as you have to individually update each page. Instead use a CMS like Joomla or WordPress.

    Regards,
    Benjamin
