What do you suggest as a server host for a small internet based business?

I am starting a business that will rely soley on the website for everything. What is an extremely reliable server host that I can count on that is COST EFFECTIVE? Thanks!!What do you suggest as a server host for a small internet based business?
The two that spring to mind immediately are GoDaddy.com and AliBaba.com, the first one is known for its infamous, and therefore effective television ads. And the second one has excellent global coverage. Google also has some access to such as well. Ebay and Amazon also serve for them as well, I use AliBaba myself.
Any small web host company will do. You can get a good service for less than 100$/year!

The ONLY important thing is to choose your "system": in NO circumstances use a Window based server: it is Microsoft, and will cost you licence fees (and bugs, and slow speed and annoyances, and cryptic languages).

Make sure you select a LAMP server: Linux/unix, Apache, MySQL, Perl/php.

Most hosts offer both LAMP and WAMP (the window server).

Go for a hosting company that is not TOO big! The biggests (godaddy etc) all have a very poor service (too many clients). As a starter, you want to get some attention and help from your hosting company.

Good luck!What do you suggest as a server host for a small internet based business?

Hi,



The best hosting company that I have used is Go Daddy.com



It's only 8.95 per month, but you can choose to pay a full year and save money if you want. I've never had a problem with them!
