How to Shop for Web Hosting
Web Hosting Genius provides objective information about several of the most popular web hosting companies, and lets you make an informed descision on which is right for you. We provide a "just the facts" summary of each brand and offer no opinions of our own. Instead, we offer you a standardized feature list that lets you compare brands side by side. We also use social media to show what real customers are saying about each brand, and how well those brands are responding with their customers.
Essential Features
Most web hosting brands offer a nearly identical set of features but rarely use the same terminolgy to describe them. We have simplified this by determining a standardized set of features which you can compare side by side by each brand. Below are the 10 essential feautres we feel are the most important when picking a web host.
- Unlimited Bandwidth
- Unlimited Disk Space
- Unlimited Email
- Uptime Guarantee
- Free Domain
- Free Advertising Credits
- Money-Back Guarantee
- 24/7 Support
- Free Website Builder
- Environmentally Friendly
Social Media Stats
We believe that social media provides great insight as to how a well a web hosting brand engages its customers. By looking at a brand's social media stats, you can tell how much effort a brand is putting into their customer interaction. By reading a brand's Facebook Wall and Twitter Feed, you can get a good idea of what customers are saying about the brand, and more importantly, how the brand is reacting.
Pay attention to how many "Likes" a brand has on Facebook. "Likes" are a good indication of how active a brand is in social media.
Twitter is the preferred method of instant communication between brands and customers. You can get a good idea of the size of a brand by the amount of twitter followers they have.
Google+ is the newest social network, and generally has a more technically savy user base.
