Probably one of the most important factors in an internet company is choosing a very
good web host. If your web site goes down, you are completely out of business. When
searching for a web host company make sure they have secure server capabilities, fast
servers, lots of space, unrestricted CGI access, SSH and FTP access, web-based
administration, access to raw server logs, full email services, power and daily server DominoQQ
backups, and no minimum contracts. You may want to test their technical support and
see if they offer services, scripts, and software. Inquire about their downtime and how
long they have been in business. Make sure you are not being charged for the extra
services.
