Things to remember

"There is hardly anything in the world that someone cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price only are this man's lawful prey.
It is unwise to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money… that is all. When you pay too little you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do.
The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot… it can't be done.
If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is wise to add something for the risk you run; and if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better."
- By John Ruskin (1819-1900)
I first saw, the first portion of the above quote, on the wall in a Baskin Robins about 20 years ago. It is something I will remember for the rest of my life.
Many web hosting companies would never tell you this, becasue they are bidding for your business on price alone. Be sure you checkout reviews of your perspective web hosting companies, before you make a decision. One such source of independent reviews, is HostSearch.com
Every time I see a company offering 50 GB of bandwidth for $7.95 per month, I have to chuckle, because I know they can't stay in business for long.
