Today I will be taking a little break from presenting news about the celebrities and provide some useful tips for those who are thinking of having their own blog just like this. Fret not, I you don’t know how to set up your own blog (wordpress), I can set it up for you for FREE, provided that you purchase the package through the anyone of the following links and the package includes a cpanel as webhosting manager.
Well here goes. Over the years, I have established rapport with several webhosting providers in Malaysia as well as overseas. Some of my websites are hosted on servers located in the U.S. to cater for the U.S. markets (as it provides better download speeds especially when MALAYSIAÂ has the occasional backbone breakdown). This gives me an opportunity to compare their services. Please bear in mind, sometimes, the cheapest may not be the best. Poor service can badly affect your website operations. You can never afford to take risk if you are running a popular website such as Syokkahwin.com if their server is unreliable. I have moved from shared hosting, semi-dedicated to dedicated server hosting and my experience really taught me to be with the webhosting provider with the best service.
DATA KL SOLUTIONS
Criteria in choosing the best webhosting provider:
Service and reliability: Make sure it contains guarantee that your server has 99% reliability. Don’t be fooled by unlimited bandwidth offer as after a certain threshold your bandwidth will be cut and access time to your website will slow down. In this case, Exabytes and DataKL offer you the best in terms of service. uperb and reliable service. As for Exabytes, website ownerS will be notified before website suspension due to excess use of resources. All email queries will be entertained within 3-4 hours or for faster response, you can easily give them a call and ask for Support. They are available 24/7. Unlike other webhosting provider they don’t even provide number on their website. You are limited to submitting a ticket. After one year with them, I think people at the Support Department have known me well. I can remember them by all of their first names. Now, don’t get me wrong, because I called them not because I have many problems with my website but because I keep asking them silly questions like on how to install stuff into my website and gladly they are all very eager to help. The same goes for datakl solutions.
EXABYTES
MERCUMAYA.NET
Price: Between DataKL, Exabytes and Mercumaya, DataKL offers the cheapest entry-level package that starts at RM65 per year and this includes cpanel webhosting management which is very important for beginners. This is followed by Mercumaya at RM68/year. But you will be getting only 25 Gb bandwidth per year with DataKL. This is only useful if you have low traffic website. But I think the purpose of you having a website is for people to visit. The more people that visit your website, the more excited you are about blogging etc. So if you intend to use your website for blogging or to set up a mini website for your sales page, you need extra firepower. This is where Exabytes come in handy. Exabytes has the advantage of economies of scale due to its size. Their package starts at RM269 per year with 50Gb monthly transfer (bandwidth).
