7 Questions to ask yourself before you choose your new Host – Do I get what I pay for?

So as we come to the end of what we hope has been an informative story, we come to what might be the most important element.

Part 8: The Cost

Following on from the Introduction and previous blog posts including last weeks insight into Tools and applications . It’s now time to turn our attention to the price you pay.

Last but not least, pricing is an important factor when choosing a web host. With so many providers out there we know it can be a difficult choice to make, especially when you have to consider all the different variables that go into pricing an individual plan. The general rule of thumb is that you get what you pay for.

If a company is charging a very small monthly fee, they have no choice but to skimp in other areas, perhaps in some of the ways we have highlighted in these blogs.

Another area to be on the lookout for is renewal pricing. Many hosts will offer a significantly discounted price for the first year in order to “get you hooked,” but when renewal time comes, your bill can be up to three times the cost of your first year! Make sure to read what you are buying and what the future pricing is likely to be.

At Netcetera we have simple pricing, no hidden costs or small print and to help you get started we allow you to pay monthly. There is no renewal pricing, what you see is what you get. Our plans start at only £2.99 per month and regardless of which solution you require, each one comes with fantastic reliability, security and awesome support without sacrificing on quality.

Make the right choice for you

As you can see, there are many factors that come into play when choosing a web host. These general factors should help you find the right one, even if it’s not with Netcetera we would still hope you’ll see the tremendous value we provide. If at any time you have to question if Netcetera is right for you, simply head to our website and start up a live chat. We’ll be glad to answer any questions you might have.

In a very close second place, Netcetera also responded to every Netcraft request, but with a slightly longer average connection time. Netcetera owns and operates a carbon neutral data centre on the Isle of Man, and recently celebrated its 20th birthday, having been in the hosting business since 1996.

Netcetera has done it again in March.  We are still right up at the top of the list, a remarkable achievement for a business that has been operating for over 20 years. The results over the last few months clearly show that Netcetera is a company that still continues to provide some of the most reliable hosting on the planet.  Not just fast reliable hosting but hosting that doesn’t destroy the environment.

HappyMother's Day (6)

The Businesses Behind Our Business

As Netcetera celebrates 20 years of successful business we thought we would share some of the great success stories behind some of the clients we have helped over the years.

We gave Lawrence from the team at Futurestore the 60 second interview. To get his thoughts on being a Netcetera client and setting out in business.

Futurestore

Steve: How long have you been in business for?

Lawrence: We have been designing and building websites for 18 years

Steve: What is your main business, what do you do, who are your customers?

Lawrence: We spend our time almost entirely devoted to building ecommerce websites. All the sites we build are based on our own software and this makes it quick and easy to respond to customers’ needs for flexibility in website functionality. Our customers are typically SME’s – from businesses of one owner/manager to larger enterprises with hundreds of staff.

Steve: Why choose Netcetera?

Lawrence: We stay with Netcetera as they are able to still offer an excellent personal service to businesses like ourselves.

Steve: Any funny stories or challenging situations from your business?

Lawrence: We once had a call on a Monday from a person who had just been let down by their website designers and who, because of advertising that was due to hit the streets, needed a fully working ecommerce website designed and built by the following Monday. We did it….just!

Steve: What would you say to someone about to set up their own business, words of wisdom ?

Lawrence: If you can genuinely leave your client happy at the end of a job (and get paid!), then there’s little else you need to worry about.

Steve: How important is having reliable hosting for your business?

Lawrence:  This is paramount, especially so with ecommerce websites.

About Futurestore; Started in 1998 we have designed and built over 700 websites.
