If you are planning to buy Internet domain name for your online business, there are few things that should be kept in mind during and after the procedure of domain name registration. The foremost thing that has to be thought about in the entire process is to select a domain name for your online business. This may sound very easy at this point of time, but with the proliferation in online business, thinking of a unique domain name that reflects the purpose of your website is a very difficult task. It involves a lot of brainstorming sessions along with an in-depth search over the entire thing.
You can discuss about the domain name with your friends and family members and finally choose the one that best suits your requirements. Your domain name should be the one that is short, simple, reflects the purpose of your business and easy to remember by the users. It is not necessary for your domain name to be the one similar to your company name, until the name of your business is popular enough to be known like brand name. Once you have thought about a suitable domain name, you can move further for domain name check to see if the domain name that you are thinking about has not already been taken by anyone else. Once you have verified that your domain name is unique, do not delay the process at all and go for your domain name registration. These services are mainly provided by the website hosting providers only along with other services, but you can also get them done through separate service providers who only register domain name. Do not forget to check if your registrar is a certified ICANN registrar for domain names. This is because; only ICANN registrar is the one that certifies businesses which have the right processes and technology. Besides, this gives you a platform to complaint with ICANN in case your service provider fouls you.
You can also consider domain name transfer, if you are not satisfied with the previous one. However, if you are also willing to change your domain name registrar as well, make sure that it is at least 60 days old; otherwise ICANN registrar will not allow it. However, if you want to renew it with your previous registrar only, wait for at least 45 days, otherwise the amount paid for renewal will not add one more year to your previous date of expiry and instead, the money submitted will go waste.
It is better to do a thorough search before selecting a web host or a registrar because, you will have to be associated with them for the coming few years. You can read reviews, talk to people over the discussion forums and ask for their experiences with particular web host or registrar. This way, you will know both their pros and cons and select the best domain name registrar or website hosting provider that will ensure the success of your online business.

Getting The Most From Your Hosting.
Most hosting companies offer one or more email accounts with your hosting service. These email accounts are a gaping hole for fraudsters, scam artists, and other criminals to slip through take advantage of your naivety, and possibly steal your valuable personal information or sabotage your computer's operations. Phishing: One form of such criminality is phishing where emails appear in your account that, by all rights, seem to have been sent from a trusted company with which you do business (ie a financial institution, an eMerchant, or your hosting company) claiming that your personal information needs updating in their records.
A link embedded in the email takes you to a webpage that mimics that companys website. If you dont know any better, and your hosting company doesnt catch it, youre liable to hand over such valuable personal information as your password and credit card number to a criminal.But many hosting providers include software in their hosting packages that can detect and intercept such schemes before you ever have to see them. Viruses: Another insidious crime is the sending of viruses through email attachments. We've all heard of viruses, and consumers and hosting companies alike often rely on such tools as Norton AntiVirus to protect their system(s). But your hosting company can often provide you additional protection.
Having a firewall as part of your hosting package, for example, is a great source of peace of mind. Its worth seeking a hosting provider that can scan attachments to ensure their virus-free, a hosting provider that is constantly updating their database of new viruses. Spam: And then there's spam. Yuck! We're all sick of it (your hosting provider sure is) and yet so many companies still dont seem to get it, continuing to spew it out indiscriminately. Well, you shouldn't have to deal with spam anymore, and many hosting companies are seeing to it.
Spam filters allow hosting companies to detect suspicious emails Ð for example, ones that have been sent out en masse to a list, or ones sent from addresses that dont match any in your personal address book. Some hosting companys spam filters can even learn over to time to match a growing list compiled partially by you and partially by your hosting company of unsolicited and unwelcome senders. Text analysis technology allows your hosting company to review the actual content in emails sent to you to discover impersonal, targeted marketing pitches, often matching those sent to others of their hosting clients.Then you let your hosting company know whether to automatically delete suspicious emails from your account or simply store them in a different mailbox for you to review at your convenience.
Keep in mind, spam isn't only annoying; it can also be dangerous. Spam can contain viruses that'll infect your system before you or your hosting provider even notice there's a problem. Your mail is private, and so is your precious personal data. If your hosting company doesnt protect your mailbox like Brink's security, find another hosting provider. There are plenty.

Low Cost Web Hosting by B2rhosting.com
Statistics show that the primary concern of most web hosting seekers out there is the cost of the web hosting. The price tag is what most people is concerned about. In reality the price of the hosting package is only half the worry. The other half is a plethora of options and services, features and offers that not only confuse a beginner mind but also mislead them with numerous technicalities. Choosing the best web hosting is a perfect balance of required features and the right price. In this article I am going to guide you through the process of choosing the cheapest but also the best web hosting service you possibly can. Like I mentioned before, there is a very thin line between choosing a great web host or a demon from hell. Believe me just as a great web hosting can be the most pleasant and rewarding experience, a bad web hosting service could be a nightmare you just won’t be able to wake up from. In this article I am going to share the knowledge and experience that I gained over the years and the mistakes that I made, so you don’t have to go through it all.
The first step in choosing the best, low cost web host is the acquisition of as much knowledge and information about the general topic of web hosting as you possibly can. This information and knowledge is going to be your best friend in the journey towards finding the best and cheapest web host out there. When you thoroughly know and understand all the web hosting concepts and terms, only then you would be able to decide your requirements and the options and features you need for your web site.
Do not jump at the sight of a $2 per month web hosting service and sign up with your eyes closed. Believe me I did it and it was a hellish experience. Be realistic, web hosts so cheap can never hope to provide good, let alone best, service. These web hosts are often down, do not offer quality customer support, are very slow and may have outdated software which can compromise the integrity and security of your web site.
Trim your fat. Do not get hosting packages with features you do not require or have no idea what they are. Do not get features simply because you have heard a lot about them and you think having them in your hosting package is professional or cool or important. Know what you need and only get that. It saves a lot of money. In the beginning, for my first 4-5 pages website, I got hosting packages that included databases, email forwarding, CGI, a large web space, high bandwidth, additional scripts and programs and a lot of other unnecessary elements that I had no idea what to do with, and only because I thought I might need them for my website some time later. Do not do that, whenever your needs increase your available resources or options or features, almost all web hosts offer the option of upgrading your existing web hosting account to include the newer elements that you now require.
Do not consider yourself a customer who is bound to have a bad experience only because you are in search of low cost or cheap web hosting. So, expect to have great web hosting support even when you are paying small bucks, all customers are to be treated the same way, so if a web host has good technical support, it is good for everyone, or is supposed to be. So do not be shy to contact them and talk to them as many times as you would want. Ask them questions about all your concerns and doubts, and keep asking until you are not truly satisfied. As a customer you are eligible for best technical support, so make sure it is available before you make a hosting decision.
Go for shared web hosting. Shared web hosting is the common preference of most web hosting buyers. Shared web hosting not only takes your web hosting costs to a considerable low level, it also is a great choice in terms of support and less technicalities. Shared hosting is pre-configured and good to go, while the other type of web hosting available; the Dedicated hosting, is not only expensive but also is a whole lot more technical. When cheap web hosting is your preference, there is no better option than the shared web hosting.
Keep searching for a good and really cheap web host, because I know that they do exist. So you might be thinking right now, hey if you know all that and you know any good and cheap web hosts, why don’t you tell us?, That is because everyone’s definition of cheap is different with respect to the features they require, e.g. I might think that for me cheap web hosting is $0.5 per month and if I tell you a web host that is cheap by my standard and offer web hosting for $0.5 per month, you might say dude I asked for cheap, not a scam. So everyone’s idea of cheap is different, so would your be. But keep looking, and you might someday find the best, cheapest web host out there.
