Do your own website, also have a few years! From the virtual host to VPS, many hosts, large and small, have been bought, some of which are bought for others. In the absence of sufficient funds to choose a server, there will always be so many junk hosts. What’s abhorrent is the mid way IDC. It’s like crying without tears. The following article will share some common mistakes in choosing a virtual host based on some of my own experiences and references, and talk about how to choose a good virtual host for webmaster Xiaobai. Hope to help you!
Generally, before we prepare to build a blog site, what kind of state is it? Um… Let me guess, you’re probably excited! In fact, it’s not just you, many bloggers are in the same state before setting up their own domain name independent blog Today’s Internet host market is full of “top virtual host” websites (these basic websites are all personal websites, or agents, or renting others’ own websites, or organizing two machines by yourself), cheap prices, unlimited space, various discounts And so on will attract you to buy their relatively “cheap and best” virtual hosts.
Error 1: search for “top level virtual host”
On the Internet, the most unfortunate thing is that good and bad coexist, and so does the host service. There are many people who want to make some money by doing something casually All kinds of so-called “top virtual host webmasters” belong to this category Most of the so-called “top-level virtual hosts (usually shared hosts)” they sell, many of them order the corresponding host configuration according to the amount of the customer’s order Obviously, a lot of host quality data on these websites are fake.
Now there are many fake host evaluation websites, of course, there are also many fake comments in them. It’s also important to choose a real website or forum. There is not a decent host evaluation website in China, at least in my opinion. Whether it’s home of hosts, host evaluation network or virtual host evaluation network, it’s almost the same. The foreign host evaluation forum recommends a web hosting talk, which does a good job.
Error 2: looking for various “infinite” virtual hosts
Many people are looking for “infinite” virtual host when they start to build the station. It seems that the so-called “infinite” provided by IDC is the best host. But the general blog or enterprise website doesn’t need any infinite space and traffic at all at the beginning. These superfluous things are useless at all. The most important thing is stability and speed.
In fact, no IDC will provide “unlimited” services, at least not in the virtual host industry. What unlimited space, unlimited domain name binding, unlimited forwarding, unlimited traffic It’s all floating clouds. These are all impossible. People with brains will know which Toby will let customers host an unlimited account on the host, let alone provide them with unlimited storage and bandwidth.
Error 3: price is more important than anything
When choosing to buy a virtual host for the first time, don’t let the price be the only factor determining which host to buy Of course, cheap hosts always look popular, but don’t forget the difference between “cheap” and “affordable.”. When you have no money, no matter how cheap the host is, it is also a high price in front of you.
I bought a Jing’an Linux host before. I bought it from Taobao, the agent. In 180 years, the overall space configuration and traffic volume are pretty good. In the first year, the service was ok (after all, it was Jing’an’s). In the second year, I didn’t know what to do. I hung up the proxy website directly, and then posted a notice saying that for internal reasons of the company, all the host businesses were abandoned. My space is closed like this. The FTP account permission is blocked and can only be downloaded but not uploaded. It didn’t take long for this online store to become one that sold shoes and clothes, and people couldn’t get in touch with it. It’s a pity that my mainframe only takes three or four months a year.
Error 4: ignored terms of service
Most people don’t care about the type of services IDC provides and a series of instructions about the mail system. In fact, if you don’t read the terms of service you signed up for, it’s a matter of time before your website gets into trouble The probability of an accident is higher than that of you looking for “infinite” virtual machine hosts, because many IDC try to limit your resource usage through their service types. It includes all kinds of restrictions on email system accounts, such as how many email accounts there are, how many emails you can send per hour, etc.
The type of service usually also includes the host’s refund policy Don’t believe the slogans like “30 days worry free refund”, “7 days dissatisfied full refund” Take a good look at the refund policy provided by your IDC is consistent with what you think is practical, which is absolutely beneficial.
Error 5: choose the “Cheapest” virtual machine host
When you read a lot of IDC ads and websites and finally decide to buy a virtual host, buying the cheapest host is not the best for you. The space configuration and price of the virtual host are always related. If you want to get the services you deserve, you have to pay the corresponding amount.
Error 6: buy a new host for a year before you know it well
If you don’t have any experience in purchasing virtual hosts, it’s not recommended to purchase one year or more at a time. Because most of the time, it’s hard for you to get back the money that belongs to you (including those that claim to be refundable). The longer you buy, the more likely you are to waste it.
Just like the alicloud host I use now, I decided to buy it after trying it for some time. Of course, some hosts do not provide trial, so you can choose to buy a month, or a shorter trial cycle, to see the specific use effect. If it’s good, you can renew it for another year. If you can’t stand the toss, or if you’re a local tyrant, let’s talk about it.
None of the host evaluation site’s comments know their service quality better than trying it out.
Conclusion:
Remember these six mistakes when you start building your own blog site to buy a virtual host. Don’t make any more mistakes that people usually make. Choose a good virtual host, it will play a considerable role in your website operation and later promotion operation Of course, if you don’t care about that small amount of money, you can directly choose some large virtual host providers, and the reason will not be repeated.
