Secure a place to host your website
Once you have registered your domain, you will need a server to host your website. One option is to purchase a server and provide your own hosting. The more common option and the more cost effective option is to select a hosting provider.
Things to consider when choosing a hosting provider:
-
What support is available and how critical is it to my business to have ready access to support?
- phone support
- Email support
- Online chat support
- When my site grows and expands, will my provider be able to grow and expand with me?
- What tools are available to help me build and manage my site and how easy are they to use?
- Will my site be backed up and what is the process if I need to have it restored?
