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... - Finding a quality and affordable web hosting provider

The issue of a domain name trademark should move to the top of your list. As your Internet business grows, the value of your domain name increases. You need to guard against unscrupulous competitors that may try to incorporate your domain name in their meta tags to obtain search engine rankings under your name. If you have a domain name trademark, you can go after these individuals and compel the search engines to remove their listings. What Is A Trademark? A trademark is a distinctive item that is used to identify a logo, product, device, package or service. The trademark identifies the item as being provided by a particular firm. To protect these items you can obtain a mark from the patent and trademark office that prohibits others from trying to gain economic advantage from your mark. Domain Name The patent and trademark office views domain names in a unique way. The office views the "http://www" element as a part of the file transfer process, not your domain name. The ".com", ".net", etc., designations are considered top-level domain identifiers and are also disregarded for the purpose of a domain name trademark. Locators Cannot Be Registered A domain name is a locator for file pages. When you type in your domain name, a server locates and displays files. If a domain is used solely for this purpose, it will not be granted a mark. Instead, the domain name must be incorporated into the site. For instance, Amazon is recognized as an online bookstore and the site actually has the word "Amazon" on every page. Since "Amazon.com" is more than a locator, Amazon can apply for and receive a trademark. If Amazon used the domain name, bookstore.com, the company would be able to register "Amazon", but not "bookstore." Generic and Descriptive Terms Domain names that are generic or descriptive in nature cannot be registered because they fail to designate a distinctive product or service. For example, bank.com, book.com, advice.com, etc. domain names cannot be trademarked. You may be thinking, "What about ‘Coke?' "Coke" is a trademarked term because it is a distinctive term for a soft drink product. It just so happens that a brilliant marketing plan has convinced most people to refer to soft drinks as "cokes", even if they actually prefer another brand! Trademarks are an important factor in protecting your Internet business. Armed with a trademark, you can keep competitors from pulling traffic off the search engines when people search for your site.
