Things to be followed while buying web hosting,

1, Need to check the infrastructure of the company like where the server has been hosted in perfect data center or in-house.
2, Check their network uptime it should be 99.999%.
3, Ask for a legal issue like agreement.

Everything is depened on what you like to host means website, blog, ecommerce website like that and also depend on requirement of space, bandwidth, operating system and expectation of support

It can never be stressed to highly enough that nowadays, cheap web hosting plans does not necessarily mean poor quality and service. There is no need to choose a host with the fastest ticket response time, but choose one who you feel you communicate well with.

true, a lot of cheap hosts will actually be owned by the big players using the same support network.

Large expensive hosts will do the same as vehicle main dealerships, which will have small backstreet centres to sell their part exchange and over 3 year old vehicles.

In the case when you need to choose hosting for a site with specific requirements (for example, with certain resources), use a VPS server. For very large and serious projects aimed at a long period of time, it is better to choose a physical hosting.
Once you have decided on the type of hosting, calculate the required amount of disk space, a set of functions and applications and compare your requirements with the hosting capabilities. Check the quality of technical support, reviews about the provider, and also objectively assess whether the price and quality of the services provided. The work of your site depends on the quality of hosting. So take your time and weigh all the advantages and disadvantages of your chosen provider.

With the right web hosting provider, your business web site can be much easier than you think. There are so many web based design tools and marketing tools included in web hosting packages, that you really don't need to know much about html, programming, or otherwise.

It completely depend on your requirements.

I have noticed some providers just installed cloudlinux OS and sell it as cloud server which is not good. If you are choosing cloud server, you should know more about the cloud technology that is used on the setup

Hi,

I am researching over the internet. I would like to know which hosting service is more beneficial?

Can someone explain me ?

I believe cloud hosting is best now a days but still looking for opinion.

See,
Which hosting service is better for your website, it totally depends on your requirements and budget. If you have some basic website then shared hosting is an ideal solution for you. It is economically cost-effective and easy to use.
From the next level, if you have some eCommerce or high traffic website or application then VPS and cloud web hosting is the right option for you.
For more security and high availability of resources, dedicated server hosting is best and most reliable option for you.
So, the choice is yours, which web hosting service is best for you.

Totally agree.
The thing is that most customers don't have any knowledge to what they should look in a hosting plan. So most of the times they make bad choices and then blame hoster for services. :crash:

sometimes it is a host that is bad. look at ebay. too many unlimited everything for $2 a year listings (try asking some of these simple questions any host should know and most wont have a clue) you will find most of these will have a cheap master reseller/alpha reseller account and then call themselves hosts.
most people without knowledge will just see the price and then when things go wrong they turn to other hosts complaining they lost their websites and can we help get it back.

There are just so many vague things in this discussion. People seem to love throwing terms around that can mean just about anything.

'Shared' or 'cloud' hosting for example.

Shared hosting can be thousands of sites thrown on to a server with the hope that they won't all be accessing resources at the same time, or it can be a few dozen sites on a carefully managed and well specified server.

Cloud hosting is even more vague, depending on the service provider it can mean a myriad of different things.

There is no one size fits all answer to what is the best kind of hosting. It is just the one that fits the particular need best.

 

[clouvider]

I believe cloud hosting is best now a days

But what are you classing as a Cloud Hosting?

Marketing can be done in weird and wonderful ways to mean as someone else said; CloudLinux is installed and now its a Cloud Service; or it can be a real HA setup with redundant, replicated storage and compute layers.

You need to check what fits your needs and what you are comfortable with, there is no best one size fits all solution for all hosting needs.

Which is the best hosting provider for your website relies entirely on your needs and financial situation. Shared hosting is the perfect choice if you have a simple website. It is simple to use and economically efficient.
The best choice for you at this level is VPS and cloud web hosting if your website or application has a high volume of traffic or is an eCommerce site.
Dedicated server hosting is the best and most dependable choice for you if you want increased security and high resource availability.

Therefore, you can choose the web hosting provider that is appropriate for you.

 

[Offshorededi]

It totally depends on your needs. If you have a small project in development phase than shared hosting will be best. If you want dedicated resources for a small project than VPS hosting ... So cut short it depends on the needs and purpose of hosting.

For most websites a shared hosting is a better and cheaper solution than a cloud.

Why/when would cloud hosting be worse than shared hosting?

A level of technical support should also be taken into consideration. It happens that many web site hosting services providers don't actually provide the 24/7 support they are boasting they have. There are different kinds of the support, but the most widespread is a 24/7 online support. It’s better to choose those web hosting companies that provide online technical support. It's more convenient. Of course one of the key factors is how quickly they respond to your request.

I agree that any host should have some sort if technical knowledge, but saying you provide 24/7 support does not mean you have 24/7 a live person as having a comprehensive knowledgebase and FAQ which can be accessed 24/7 constitutes as 24/7 support.
