In scouting for a web hosting company, always ensure the disk space and amount of traffic needed.
Amount of Disk Space
The requirement of a small or medium web site is between 10 and 100MB of disk space.
When looking at the size of HTML pages, you will notice that the average size is very small - smaller than 1K. But looking at the size of the pictures used within the pages, you will often find them several times bigger than the page itself.
5 and 50K of space on the server is the expected consumption of each HTML page which is dependent on the use of images or other elements that may consume disk space. Read more... - Web Site Design Company Checklist

The best deal isn't always the cheapest. Shopping for the best website hosting can be an easier experience if you think about what kind of resources your website will actually need.
Shopping for website hosting can quickly turn from a careful, measured affair to a frenzied "how low can you go" price hunt. Recent years have seen the concept of a "budget hosting" sphere melt away as many large hosts bring prices down to compete. This does benefit the consumer, as they are more likely to get better service for their dollar. Read more... - Cheap web hosting - what exactly does it mean to you

No, ‘cheap’ is not necessarily a bad thing (well, not always), but when it comes to a services industry as competitive and with as thin margins as the web hosting industry, customers better watch out. Hosts offering ‘low-cost’ services tend to offer the world for Rs. 900 per year but, usually fail to deliver even the most basic of services. Surprised? I’m not. Let me explain some basics for the benefit of the vast majority who would still be unsure as to what I’m rambling about.
A “web host” is a company (well, most like to think of themselves as such but that’s a whole new article) that is in the business of procuring bandwidth (internet connectivity) and servers (glorified computers) with the intent to re-sell the same, in smaller bits, to people who need storage space for their e-mails and websites.

Do you want to get a domain name? If so, you should first know some of the recommended tips for you to get a domain name that is really good. So here they are. One of the common queries with regards to the process of getting a domain name is “How do I get a domain name?” So to answer such query, it is important that you know the steps on how you decide on a domain name. Keep the Domain Name as Short as Possible For that matter, you should remember that a good domain name is short. This means that the maximum allowed size for you to get a domain name is 63 characters. However, it is advisable that you keep the name as short as possible. Why? This is for the main reason that short domain names are easier to type and remember than the kilometric one. Avoid Using Special Characters For you to get a domain name that is good, you should also know that domain names with special characters such as hyphens and underbars are harder to describe to the customers over the phone. It is perhaps for the reason that most of the visitors are not used to them either and there are instances that you may accidentally send customers to your competitors of they have the same names without special characters. Avoid Initials Aside from such consideration, here comes another consideration which holds that when you get a domain name, you should use your company name or a description of your product rather than your company initials. For example, one would instantly what a site named “NeverPayIncomeTaxAgain” is about than using the acronym “NPITA”. Understand the Possibilities for Errors In cases when you get a domain name and entered it into the browser but got an error message, you should remember that there are some possibilities for such error message. One could be the domain name is available. The other possibilities could be that the domain name holder is designing the site but has not posted it yet, or the owner bought the domain name for future use, or it could be that the holder purchased the name believing that he can resell it at a profit. Check the Availability of the Domain Name After mentioning such moves, I guess it is nice for you to check the availability of the domain name first. However, you must also be aware that some of the web hosting companies and domain name registrars provide some engines for you to check the availability of a domain name before you can get a domain name. And most of those companies even provide alternate versions of the name if the name that you wanted to get is not available.
