When you are looking for a company to provide the service of web hosting, try placing price aside for a moment.

First Web Hosting

Any host that has been around for over 5 years is probably doing something right.

The reason for the questions is to see how long it takes to get answers and the quality of those answers. If you don’t like what you see, scratch them off your list because that is exactly the type of response you will get when a support issue arises.

Try to get the web addresses of 4 or 5 sites they host and visit over a period of a week or so and see if you notice any downtime or blatant sluggishness. You may even want to email the owners of these sites and ask what they think of their host.
