What Happens When You Make The Wrong Hosting Choice?

When it comes to your business strategy this season, heck every season, your #1 priority is maximizing profits. Well then don’t take website hosting for granted! Did you know that choosing the wrong web host can have a negative impact on your business and income? Here are just 3 problems that can come from a poor web host when you simply just on price:

1. Loss of money! If your site goes down, your potential customers will not be able to view your rates, availability, fishing reports or book a spot. Even worse, if you host an online store, you will lose out on potential sales and income. Amazon recently had a 40 minute outage which cost them approximately $5 million dollars. While your loss might not be as big, you don’t want to miss out on a single charter!
2. Negative effect on your SEO Ranking – Your goal with content marketing is to rank high in search results so customers can easily find you. If your site is down repeatedly when search engines are attempting to visit, then your ranking will be adversely affected. Aside from downtime, many SEO experts believe that slow websites can also hurt your rankings.
3. Security and Malware Attacks – There is no perfect solution for keeping your website secure. However a reputable web hosting company will back up your data and make it easy to restore in case your site is hacked. They will also assist you with technical support, maintenance and security issues.

• Excellent customer support. The internet never sleeps and fast, reliable, and knowledgeable customer service is crucial. Hosting providers may claim they offer 24-7 support, but you will never know till you are faced with a tough situation. At Charternet, not only do you know exactly who you are talking to, but we have over 20 years experience in the marine industry with hundreds of satisfied customers. Don’t take our word for it.
