6 Most Common Web Hosting Myths You Should Be Wary Of

Web Hosting

Many web hosting providers claim to be the best. The market is flooded with these options, and people could easily get confused. That confusion usually leads to wrong information, and as a result, people make a mistake when choosing a web host, simply because they don’t have enough knowledge. In this article, we will reveal six common myths about web hosting, which you should be aware of when you decide to choose your web hosting provider.

Myth #1: There is no difference between web hosts

All web hosts have the same purpose, of course, but they can’t be the same in all segments! It’s like you said that a new Ferrari model and a 20-year-old Ford Fiesta are the same cars. It’s nonsense. Therefore, you have to research and analyze all details about each web provider’s services in order to find the best solution. Check their uptime scores, server speed, common and uncommon features you might need for business, and also, whether their price fits your current budget and needs.

Myth #2: Free web hosting is the best

This myth is deeply connected with the previous one. People tend to think that every host is the same, and following that logic, they choose free web hosting. However, a free service doesn’t provide extra features, support, or any guarantee of quality. Also, there are risks of massive downtimes which can ruin your business, as well as unwanted ads that a hosting provider might place on your website. There is also a considerable risk that your site might disappear during the night if your web host decides to shut down. The point is, reliable hosting usually means that you have to pay for it.

Myth #3: Your web hosting and domain name have to be hosted with the same provider

Even though it is pretty common to have the domain name and web hosting together with the same provider, it doesn’t necessarily have to be that way. Everything could be separate – your domain, web hosting, and email hosting. What are the benefits of that? For instance, one provider can offer you the best terms for instant domain name registration, the second one the same for web hosting, and the third one for email hosting. You don’t have to choose only one provider – consider all options, and select each option based on the needs of your business.


Myth #4: A good web host is expensive and cheap hosting is bad

Web hosting quality doesn’t have to correlate with the web hosting price! Even though it is true that a free host is not usually reliable, it doesn’t mean that it has to be expensive as hell. Good web hosting is not always costly, and a cheap host doesn’t have to be bad. Again, check what each of these web hosts offers and compare each segment. In most cases, you will see that some of the best options out there (for your business needs) are not expensive at all, and also, that some of the cheapest web hosts are not as bad as you thought they would be.

Myth #5: You need to be an IT expert to create a website

Website Hosting or Web Hosting

This is maybe the biggest myth of them all. If that is true, there will be a lot fewer websites in the modern world. Your idea and functioning of your website are more than enough; a web hosting provider will give you all other information and support to make your website live. There are also content management systems such as WordPress or Joomla! where you can set up your own website easily with the help of themes and templates. There are too many things on these platforms which help you with technical issues, so you don’t have to be an IT expert to run a website.

Myth #6: You must find a host without negative reviews

Be careful when it comes to reviews. First of all, you can’t expect each of the hosting options to have perfect five-star reviews. That’s impossible. It could be because of their mistakes, but many online shoppers don’t have realistic expectations. With that mindset, they often give bad reviews because they are not happy with the price or something else. Make your decision based on your needs, and consider reviews only as a “second opinion”.

Make sure you understand all these mistakes that people make before you choose your provider. Only that way, you’ll be able to choose a suitable and affordable web host for your business.
