KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

WHAT ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT AND WHY DO THEY KEEP POINTING AT ME?

	Domain
	Domain Registration
	Domain Registrar  Example: www.GoDaddy.com
	Allowed Bandwidth: This is the amount of bandwidth that you can use. It is usually specified per month. Every time someone views one of your pages, they use your bandwidth. Typically, the larger your file size and the more graphics you have, the more bandwidth you use. Unless you have a very high traffic site, you will never come close to using your allotted bandwidth.
	Platform: Which Operating System does the provider offer? If you are used to using Microsoft and develop your pages with Microsoft development tools, then you should make sure your prospective hosting provider offers Microsoft support. The most popular platforms are Linux or Unix environments as they are considered more stable and secure than Microsoft's IIS server.
	Email: Do you need a lot of email addresses? Some providers allow you a large number of addresses that are associated with your domain and provide you with both pop and smtp servers to point your MX record to. Others web hosting providers offer email forwarding, which simply means that your website email will be forwarded to a main account.
