How can issues with website hosting be prevented?

The Brazilian website hosting market is currently thriving, with over 3.8 million “.br” domains registered, as reported by NIC.BR.

Many of your company’s rivals are actively competing for customers online due to the large number of existing websites.

Imagine your website being offline for approximately three hours due to the hosting service you selected.

Have you considered how many potential customers your business could lose during this time? And what about competitors who have invested in better services, could benefit from your lack of organization?

To prevent your company from experiencing such issues, we will discuss typical problems associated with substandard accommodations and offer tips on avoiding them. Ready to begin?

1. Domains that are available at no cost

Obtaining a free domain may not appear to be an issue when aiming to develop a website for personal purposes.

In the context of corporate websites, this can be extremely damaging to the company’s reputation, as it shows that they have not made any effort to provide a positive user experience.

When the client fails to register the domain in their own name, they run the risk of losing patent rights if the company they hired claims ownership by registering it themselves.

Ensure that the hosting company is certified and authorized to register paid domains.

2. IP address shared by multiple users.

When a web page is hosted on a shared server, it shares the same IP address with other websites.

If any of the websites send infected emails or engage in spamming, their IP address will be blacklisted by email servers, making it challenging for your company to reach customers.

To avoid this issue, ask for a dedicated IP address from your hosting provider or utilize specialized Email Marketing software.

Misleading advertisements

There are many lesser-known companies in the market providing top-notch services at significantly lower prices than established firms.

Projects like this typically lack the necessary structure to fulfill their promises.

The individuals involved in the company lack professionalism, ethics, and are unlikely to offer proper technical assistance when issues emerge.

Prioritize companies with established experience and credibility in the market as they are transparent, have a proper infrastructure, and set prices in line with their offerings.

4. Substandard technical assistance

It is crucial to assess the quality of technical support when selecting a reliable hosting service, as all services of this kind are prone to issues.

During those times, it is crucial to have confidence in a skilled and attentive support team.

Look for the operating hours and contact technical support via email, phone, and chat to draw conclusions before signing a plan.

Engage the services of a reliable web hosting provider

The most effective way to avoid future issues at your company is to prioritize the company’s reputation in terms of service quality and technical support.

Analyze the company’s clients, assess the page response time, and consider reaching out to gather their feedback.
