I started to use HostPapa 2 years ago. I like the unlimited hosting for domain name. I have another 2 host services with other companies, since I started using HostPapa I’ve transferred all of them to HostPapa.

I purchased ResellerClub's hosting deal when I heard about a sale on one of their products in 2017. It has been a good one year for me now and I am looking to upgrade my hosting plan. Very happy with the support and the service provided by ResellerClub hosting. Thanks to ResellerClub!

HORRIBLE customer service
Our website and emails were down 3 DAYS and we run a small business. All I wanted to do was renew our domain and they kept opening “support tickets” and said they’d contact me shortly. They don’t care and don’t listen or understan d what your problem is and just pawn your problem off on the next department, which coincidentally doesn’t make/receive phone calls. I’m PISSED lunar pages did this to their customers.

Very bad hosting company, they sell products at low cost on bigrock website while at resellerclub they sell for high cost. Customer support is worst, you need to wait more than 8 hours to get a reply on your support ticket.

How Do You Need to Choose A Web Hosting Service?

1)

Know Your Own Hosting Needs

Before selecting any hosting company or the type of hosting, first understand the purpose of buying hosting. Are you a web designer/ developer at a learning stage, looking out for the hosting service to host the website just to learn its working? Then, you can choose the lowest price hosting provider who can satisfy your purpose. Or, are you looking for the professional website to host? Then, you must understand the depth of your work and select the host provider as per your usage. For small to medium scale business websites, one should go for the VPS or dedicated server. Cloud hosting is very useful for the high-scale business websites which get high traffic on daily basis.

2)

Disk Storage and Bandwidth

Disk storage depends on the amount of content like images, videos, files, databases, emails, etc used on your website.

Bandwidth describes the level of traffic and amount of data that can be transferred between your site, users and the internet.

Most of the companies like MilesWeb, Bluehost, Hostgator,etc. can provide you with all the best bandwidth space at affordable prices.

3)

Server Uptime Record

The server uptime decides the visibility of your website on the internet. Due to the traffic spikes, malware and hackers attacks, data center problems,etc. the server may show less uptime. A 99% uptime means 14.4 minutes (per day) of website downtime. The seconds of downtime can hamper your website performance. So, try to choose the provider that offers the Uptime above 99%.

Sr. No. Uptime Downtime/day
1 99.5% 7.2 mins
2 99.8% 2.88 mins
3 99.9% 1.44 mins
4 99.95% 43.2 seconds
4)

Multiple Add-on Domains

Add-on domain is a fully functioning domain that is created from within your control panel. That means the multiple hosting packages will share the same control panel and server and it allows you to create email, forwarders, etc.

Similarly, you can add multiple Add-on domains. What happens while creating an add-on domain?

(i) A folder in the public_html directory is created.

(ii) A subdomain gets created for the primary domain and it is attached to the new folder.

(iii) A domain is attached with the subdomain.

5)

Server Upgrade Options

The upgradation depends on the traffic your website gets. If at the start when you were not sure about the performance of your site and you had purchased shared hosting then, after some time period, your website might perform slowly due to increased traffic. Hence, you can upgrade it to VPS or dedicated server. When you observe that the traffic to your website is increasing or may be you are falling shortage of resources. You get the choice to upgrade the server as per your needs and wants.

6)

Email Accounts

Having an email account with your domain name looks more professional.

e.g., if you bake cakes and run business with the name lavender cakes then, email accounts of different departments should be related to it.

(i) [email protected]

(ii) [email protected]

Likewise, you can create multiple email accounts with one hosting plan.

7)

Live Chat Support

Live chat support gives you the immediate results. Mostly, those people who are really interested in your products ask questions on chat support. Answering them, then and there can convert them into your customers within a few minutes.
