A Little Hosting Knowledge
Tuesday, June 21st, 2011Website hosting is a big deal.
When I help people set up new WordPress Lead Generation Blogs,
I give them two options.
They are both good. It depends on your tolerance for outages.
The cheaper host I refer is Bluehost, which I have used
for many years. They are good. They have very good tools
and they are cheap and dependable to a point.
Next, some clients want things on the cloud. For those
people I suggest Rackspace Cloud Sites. It is the best Cloud
Hosting solution and has great support. I rarely have
an outage on Rackspace.
Rackspace does take a little longer to set up a site on
because they do not have the automatic tools. However, their
support is so good you may want to consider them for the
high value sites.
Both are good, and for the money I use Bluehost for many
of my sites. But for a small group of important sites
and client sites I use RackSpace.
Warning: If someone offers to host the server on a machine
they own, do not fall in to this temptation. It is simply
not worth the risk to host with a small, local hosting company.
I hope this saves you a bunch of headaches in the future.
