How to Pick a Web Hosting Company

As a web developer I have seen too many times people buy a web hosting account and then look for a web designer to build a site. Sadly there are a lot of bad hosting companies out there. Hopefully this video will help you figure out the best accounts to get.

My Recommended Hosts:
A2 Hosting: tlm.li/a2h
Siteground: tlm.li/sgh
InMotion: tlm.li/imh
Digital Ocean: tlm.li/doh

My list:
5.) Avoid EIG Hosting
4.) Avoid Hosts that Upsell
3.) Look for CPanel as a manger
2.) Support Free SSLs
1.) Has good phone support
