Web Hosting
Home-Based Business
Web hosting is an important subject for anyone who is entertaining the idea of starting a home based business. That is true even if it will be a business where the website is not the focus of the business. You will most likely want to build a site to promote the business regardless. And that means web hosting will be involved.Would it surprise you to know that ALL of the successful ISP's out there actually prefer customers who's websites fail? It's true, most of the website attempts that are made simply fizzle and fade and continue to generate monthly income for the ISP for some significant number of months. The typical life cycle for a website from the ISP's point of view is something like this:* A nuisance period of pretending to provide customer service.* A lengthy period of providing almost no customer service for a website that gets very little traffic* A nuisance period where they continue to charge the users credit card monthly while pretending to just be slow about canceling the account at the users request.* Charge the early termination fee hidden in the fine print of the terms of service policy and canceling the account
Now compare this scam where the only significant cost of doing business is the advertising to find their next victim with a business model where they actually provide some service. In that model they have more successful webmasters than they know what to do with. Bandwidth and server machines cost money! Smart people who can actually provide customer service for a technical product cost money!
No, web hosting providers much prefer webmasters who fail. In the lingo of the biz, this is called "churn". They make money on startup fees and nonexistent ISP service and early termination fees. Sure, they need lots of new victims, but they are a dime a dozen. It is this churn that provides them with a constant flow of $4.95 or $9.95 a month from thousands of would-be webmasters.
So how likely is it that someone would come along in this business environment and start looking for a much different business plan. One based not just on providing sterling ISP service that acts as "golden handcuffs" to keep people coming back for more, but actually go out of their way to help their customers build their traffic and succeed? Well, unlikely as it may seem, there is one. It is cleverly disguised not as an ISP, but as a small business educator and promoter.
In fact, you can't order ISP service from this company. Rather, you sign up to make use of their very successful business building tools and educational products. The top of the line web hosting service comes along for free. It is service better than any that you can buy at any price, but you can't buy it.
So, you have to decide which is the better deal...garbage ISP service that you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy for $4.95 a month, or First Class "if you have to ask you can't afford it" ISP service for free. Yeah, I thought so. Head back to our home page and start learning about this great small business methodology and look forward to getting your ISP service essentially for free.
Web Hosting done right...
