If you are fairly new to the concept of web hosting, then you are probably overwhelmed with all the enticing packages you can choose from. For a newbie, one can be easily persuaded to go for free web hosting and email hosting, for the obvious reason that you don?t have to pay anything for the service. but then again, for professional and business websites, you naturally would want to entrust your online presence to a more credible and reliable provider right? so how do you exactly choose the right web hosting services?

/>well, price is a major consideration. You wouldn?t want to be ripped off and pay twice as much for the service. Take your time and check the rates. However, please note that the cheapest one need not necessarily be the best choice. You need to also check the package details and compare the disk space and bandwidth on each plan. You can then come up with a short list.

To narrow down your search, location should also be taken into account. Why? mainly because you wouldn?t want to pay overseas calls to get in touch with their technical support, especially if you have urgent concerns. Check out reliable hosting service in your area or those that offer chat and email support as well as toll free numbers you can call.

Response time is also important, not only during signups and renewals but in responding to your concerns and inquiries. Sad to say, the best way to really know for sure is to best their services first. If you don?t mind going through the trial and error route, then choose web hosting providers that offer 30-day money-back guarantee. You can also read up reviews online and check out the opinions and ratings of people who are using their services.

For Philippine-based hosting service, PhilWebServices offers reliable web hosting and domain registration services and has been in operation for 7 years. the company also has a US toll free number of US based clients. with competitive rates, dependable servers, world-class support, you can be assured you get real value for your money.

I’m going to share some quick facts about our business with you. HostGator currently spends:

• More than $30,000 per month advertising with Google Adwords
• More than $350,000 per month on affiliate commissions
• And $100,000’s more per year on random advertising.

When you spend as much as we do on advertising, you start to run out of places to advertise online. this has left us with no other choice but to become a lot more creative and a lot crazier with our choice of advertising venues and locations. I present to you Billy the Billboard.

Billy proudly wears the first ever permanent HostGator Tattoo on the back of his neck. Billy, an accomplished boxer and entrepreneur who is currently located in Anchorage, Alaska, sold the first chunk of his body to Goldenpalace.com. The funds were used to purchase a flight to San Diego, where he donated his kidney to a complete stranger that he met off of MatchingDonors.com. Billy has even tried to donate part of his liver to patients in need (he was denied due to having already donated a kidney).

Billy’s current goal in life is to make it into the Guinness Book of World Records for having the most advertisements tattooed on him. he currently has six tattoos and won’t be stopping until every inch of his body is sold. ?I guess I?m like a male prostitute; I sell my body,? he told me when we were talking one day.

So what does branding someone’s neck for the rest of their life go for?

We paid $3,000 for what will most likely be one of the best investments we’ve made to date. If we get one sale a year we break even. Plus, with all the media attention this will generate, we should easily be able to make back ten or even a hundred times our investment in Billy’s lifetime.

Billy still has plenty of prime locations available. in fact, he’s currently taking bids to sell his forehead! If you are interested you can reach him at BoxingChampAK-at-aol.com or at his blog: Billy The Human Billboard

I believe in the potential of tattoo advertising so much I had this awesome plan to pay the first 200 people willing to get a HostGator tattoo more than $300,000 combined. within 24 hours of the word getting around our office, I had over a dozen employees offering to sell their skin. The plan was going to be huge and the media attention was going to be even bigger!

Everything was going great until we pitched the idea to our lawyers. they basically said that it would have been impossible to protect ourselves from lawsuits, no matter what contract we came up with. they went on to say that the fact that Billy is an entertainer is completely different than the average person in need of quick cash by getting a tattoo with our logo on it.

Since the HostGator Tattoo Stimulus plan had to be killed, we are just going to have to find other ways to get our name out to the public. in the spirit of more traditional advertising, we recently signed a deal for ten billboards on some of Houston’s busiest freeways.

And even more recently we bought some air time on The High-Tech Texan Show with radio personality Michael Garfield. You can listen to his show online if you’re not in Houston, and you can hear an audio clip from our advertisement here: HostGator’s Radio Ad. on High Tech Texan

We don’t want to stop here though. If you have a creative way for us to get our name out there, please let us know.

(The Hosting News) - Cloud Backup Leader Acknowledged for top Technology and Channel-Focused Business Model

Asigra Inc., a leading cloud backup and recovery software provider since 1986, today received recognition as one of the 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Products for 2010 by CRN, a leading IT publication. CRN?s list was based on nominations from Solution Providers rating technology, channel influence, effectiveness and visibility along with business and sales impact. The final selections were made by a panel of Everything Channel Editors. This recognition sets the pace for Asigra in 2010 as the company?s Cloud Backup? software becomes the standard for MSPs and VARs seeking to add backup services, switch from underperforming online backup or move from reselling backup services to building a secure, efficient and profitable cloud backup vault.

?Asigra is again honored by CRN with this recognition as having one of the 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors for 2010,” said Eran Farajun, Executive Vice President for Asigra. “The real winners, however, are our partners who have aligned with a software partner who does not compete against them and instead provides a platform and pro-rata partner program to compete effectively in the market.?

As a way of demonstrating its commitment to all partners?regardless of company size?Asigra?s pro-rata incentive program allows all Asigra partners to receive the same margins, incentives and benefits, based on growth, contributions and success, that are relative to the size of the partner?s organization. Unlike traditional partner programs which are typically skewed to benefit only a vendor?s largest partners, Asigra?s partner program is designed to level the playing field by making benefits based on partners? pro-rata contributions regardless of size. This allows partners of any size to achieve top benefits based on pro-rata contributions related to revenue growth; prospective sales opportunities; technical expertise, and Asigra ?brand ambassadorship? to promote awareness in the partner?s own community.

Cloud backup was recently highlighted by International Data Corporation (IDC) as one of the top 5 cloud computing applications in demand by end users1. As a result of the simplicity, reliability, pricing flexibility and deployment options, organizations are transitioning from traditional backup to this advanced approach. Cloud computing applications standardize processes to reduce training for greater efficiency and offer the latest functionality without additional capital expense, making cloud applications the way of the future. Asigra continues to excel in this area because of its focus on business-class cloud backup and 100% channel delivery model that has helped more than 500 VARs and MSPs successfully and profitably deliver backup and recovery that is aligned with cloud computing.

The channel opportunity in cloud backup continues to climb alongside industry-wide data growth, greater acceptance of Software-as-a-Service and a growing number of services delivered ?from the cloud.? Businesses are familiarizing themselves with the benefits and shopping around for services that best fit their organizations.

Winners of the 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Products were announced online at Channelweb.com and will be featured in the January 25th issue of CRN.
