Desire for Wealth

I personally feel that a hosting account is a requirement when it comes to making money on the internet. Whether you are selling a product, creating a landing page for mailing list, starting your very own blogging website, venturing into membership business or intending to build a social networking empire, you will need a hosting account.

However, there are so many hosting companies. So how do you choose one that is good?

Well, to me, it all depends on what I need. There are several type of hosting accounts.

Free hosting: You do not have to pay. But it comes with a lot of annoying advertisement.

Shared hosting: It is the least expensive and least flexible option but good enough for the average joe and jane.

VPS (virtual private server) host: You get to use a part of a server. They provided good, guaranteed resources, as long as you pay for them.

Dedicated hosting: You get to rent the entire server for your needs. High resources and the cost is expensive too.

Normally, I would choose to get a shared hosting account. Because having a free hosting account would seem unprofessional and rather cheap-skate. Furthermore, unwanted advertisements tend to show up occasionally in your free homepage.

VPS and dedicated hosting are more advanced and you can opt for them when you establish a foot-hold in the internet market.

The average monthly price of a shared hosting ranges from US$6 to US$10. As you will have to pay the fee by a yearly basis, that makes your fixed expenses to be US$72 or above every year.

Then you will have to compare what resources each hosting company provides. I would compare the follow items.

Disk storage space

Number of domain allowed in one account.

Number of MySQL databases, Subdomains, FTP account

Any web based email account

Whether it comes with cPanel, Fantastico, CGI, PHP, Cron

If any hosting company does not have those features above, then it is pointless to sign up.

One good and affordable hosting company which I have been using is 3iX. The first most obvious reason is the price it is offering. Even the most basic plan is only US$1 per month. That is right! 3iX comes with four hosting plans, namely Excite, Extra, Expert, Extreme.

I am using their Excite plan (the most basic) right now. And I find that they update my website pretty fast, almost right after I uploaded all my data onto server. The cPanel features are very well organized. Moreover, 3iX provides you with video tutorials that make learning to use cPanel a pleasant.

3iX is, without a doubt, reliable, low-cost, web hosting company, armed with superior equipment. They are backed up by support experts who really care.

By the way, it comes with 30-day money back guaranteed. I wonder which other company will do the same thing.

There is even a bonus gift. Every plan comes with a 50 website templates package. These are professionally designed, quality web templates.

For me, I am already quite satisfy with using Excite. But then if I were to expand my operation, I would definitely purchase 3iX’s Extra hosting plan.
