Web Hosting is something that you never really think about when it's working, and obsess about when it's not. It's the lifeblood of your website and your information being found and viewed on the web and in search engines like Google.
I often talk about creating content assets and not trying to run a business on FREE platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and so on. Then why would you want to run a business on a FREE web hosting service? Free means you don't own it and you can be shut down at any time for any reason, and there is NOTHING you can do about it!
Here are 3 things to think about…
- Owning your own web hosting server is crazy unless you are an IT geek.
- The most popular web hosting companies are part of big conglomerates.
- You are not just buying hosting… you are buying tech support when things go wrong.
In this episode, I will explain domains and web hosting. I will also share my cautionary tale of WHOA!
