Web Hosting: Who’s the Best?

Image 1There are so many web-hosting companies to choose from and so many technical flavors. How do you know which one you want to sign up with? This is not an easy decision, as the server choice will impact development, deployment, security and many more aspects of web hosting. Do you really want to export databases, redo a CMS installation from the ground up and move your work from hosting company A to hosting company B after six months of bad service?

Not all companies are equal, not all services are the same and before anybody go ahead with a hosting provider, and one should do as much research as possible before hand.

SEO & SEM Resources

SEO / SEM

  • Keyword suggestion tool – This is a handy little tool will show you the results of your query from both Wordtracker and Overture for determining which phrases are searched most often.
  • Keyword tracker – This utility can be used to check search engines (currently supporting Google, Yahoo and MSN) for search engine ranking and track those ranking historically, which as you probably know is critical when doing Internet marketing for your website(s).
  • Co-op ad network - Many sites have a lot of content for users which could be used for a shared advertising network. So the way I figured it, is why not use it and create the first cooperative advertising network (it’s free by the way).
  • Overture keyword tool – Not sure what search terms to bid on? Enter a term related to your site and we will show you.
  • Wordtracker – With Wordtracker you’ll know which are the best keywords to drive more traffic to your sites.
