Few things are very important while buying web hosting , I’ll mention all of these step by step . Before going in detail I would like to add that most of the mature web hosting companies are now a days over selling their accounts due to which customers are facing lots of problems , you guys know them all and there is no need to mention their company’s names . So lets start with the first very important factor to consider before buying any hosting .

• Customer Support :
  Customer Support is the very important section of web hosting , in your hosting account you face lots of problems daily and for this you need assistance from the hosting support . If there will be delay in customer support then there will be automatically a delay in solving your problem and as a result a loss of business . So customer support is very important as far as hosting is concerned .
• Hosting Uptime :
  The second most important thing is the uptime of your hosting company , before buying any hosting accoutn you should first check the uptime of the servers on which you will be given an account , for this you might search the goolge and find a tool for checking the uptime of the servers . You may request your web hosting provider to show you the previous uptime stats of their hosting data serer , it will clear all the things to you . Uptime is very necessary because a single downtime give a very bad impression to your visitor and consequently again a big loss to your business .
• Comparatively Pricing :
  The third most important things is the pricing for your hosting account , if the hosting is over priced as compared to the services it provides then you should directly ask your hosting provider about the issue and if possible search for some other hosting company who provide the same support/package with low pricing . The most important thing is the customer satisfaction . If any host satisfy their customers then customers always appreciate the hosting company and its value goes up in the market .
• Hosting Basic Features :
  Some basis feature need to be available in your hosting account like auto installers for scripts like wordpress , Joomla & other CMS scripts . This kind of things make your life easy by installing different scripts on one go and can save you from lots of hassles like manual uploading of wordpress files using cpanel and then installing it , its a big hassle by the way . Auto installers are really necessary in hosting account .
