How is hosting reliability measured? Why is one provider good and another just a scammer? In our time of various hosting, it is always worth thinking not only about the price of hosting, but also about other important indicators.
First of all to choose the future hosting it is worth considering its reliability of work and responsibility. When analyzing future hosting, you should pay attention to:
99% uptime. Those who say they are 100% lying. There are always those jobs or software updates.
DDoS Protection (it is not possible to protect yourself from them, but the hoster should be able to do simple preventive measures)
Fast technical support. Wrote and received an answer within an hour.
Protection against hacking and viruses.
Permanent data backup.
These are the basic requirements, then you should look at the placement of the hoster.
If hosting offers to solve all the questions about hosting sites (transfer, installation, protection, advice), then this means that either the hosting does not care about the client at all, or he does not know this, or it is simply not discussed by the regulations. But I personally have a hosting that helps in all these matters, so I advise you to find just such a hosting.
By the way, do not believe the words of the hoster, take a better test period and see the work of your sites, because it is the constant performance and protection of the site that is the best tester of the normal operation website hosting.
