Why Use Hosting?   Agent X Case Study

 


There are several options available to you for hosting. Some are better than others especially for business.

Your ISP (phone or cable company) may offer free hosting with your Internet account. However, the address of your site will be something like this: myaccount.phoneco.com.

You can choose to purchase a URL and forward it to your ISP account so your URL will look like this: mywebsite.com.

The best option from the perspective of search engines is to have a dedicated hosting account. Forwarding your URL to a generic account is not the best solution.

Hosting is relatively inexpensive and you don't need to know anything about servers to have one.

Hosting also allows you to have an email address based on your domain like this: me@mywebsite.com, so that even if you change your ISP your email will always remain the same. You can even change hosts and still keep your email address.

 


Agent X was hosting a website site on her ISP's server for free. She enjoyed the cost savings that this arrangement provided but learned that there were more features available with a dedicated hosting account.

She discovered that many of the features were available free in a hosting account that she was paying for separately to three other companies.

Agent X was paying her registrar to host an email associated with her forwarded URL. She was  paying another company to gather statistical information. And finally, she was paying yet another company to create a mailing list.

By choosing a dedicated hosting package, Agent X was able to realize some savings, have a better URL arrangement for the search engines, and have full control of her server with an easy-to-use control panel.
