I started learning how to make a personal website in 2003. The first space I purchased was NetEase’s personal homepage space, and I remitted 60 RMB through the post office. From that time on, I started building a personal website. After I came into contact with the ASP and PHP space, I couldn't remember how many hosting providers I changed. Some of them are individuals, some are corporate IDCs, and of course there are also cases of being deceived, unstable, often crashing, and even losing data. After so many years, I have clearly realized that whether you are running a personal blog for entertainment or running a website to support your family, the choice of host is very important. Let me discuss how to choose a website hosting space through the following points:
First, individuals or companies. We often visit laggards and visit well-known webmaster websites such as A5. We also often see website space sales advertisements published and signed in forums. Sometimes the prices we see are really low. How do we choose this? Should we choose individuals or companies? From this point of view, I think there is not much difference between individuals and companies. Maybe many times some people say that individuals are more stable than companies. In fact, this is not the case. Some of them are companies on the surface. In fact, it is a personal company, and all the customer service QQ numbers are operated by one person. Therefore, it is difficult for us to distinguish between a company and an individual, so we will not distinguish between them. We can compare the performance of the host through space testing for several days and cost-effectiveness with others. The method I always use is to chat on QQ first to see how the person's service attitude is. If he is very impatient, it is best not to buy, because if there are problems in the future, the service will not be much better.
Second, whether the price is low or the price is high. Don’t think that high prices mean good products, and don’t think that low prices mean good services. The price is moderate. Generally, we can see the prices of other merchants. Don't go overboard and buy low-priced items. Low-priced items are likely to be of poor quality and worse service.
Third, stability comparison. We often see that some hosting providers provide a one-week test, and it is not too late to pay cash after passing the one-week test. We will use the tests in the past few days to see how the host is doing. If problems occur frequently within a week, and the host provider uses many excuses to talk about maintenance, upgrades, etc., then it is recommended to quickly switch to another host provider.
Fourth, security. Nowadays, black links are rampant, and the security of the host is very important. Before purchasing the host, we need to ask its IP first, and then test other websites under the same IP to see if other websites have black links. If many of them have black links, You'd better not buy it or choose this hosting provider, because their security is very poor. In the future, your website will be linked to black links, and even your data will be lost. If you purchased the program, it will be stolen.
Above, I analyzed the importance of personal host selection from four simple points. It is best to warn many novice personal webmasters that cheap products are not good, and low prices have poor services. Avoid.
