There are quite a few options for cheap and good web hosting providers for WordPress in India.
The question is: how to choose the best one? To do that, we have to put a few factors into consideration. Now, without further ado, let’s start.
When choosing a host, look for the one that has an easy WP installation and quick setup. Remember that not all hosting providers support WordPress.
Those who want to keep their budget tight should try to look for hosting with prices starting with no higher than ₹45/month. Remember that cheap doesn’t mean low-quality.
You can enjoy a good quality WordPress website, without spending a lot of money.
For the best resources, look for hosting providers who offer unlimited bandwidth and MySQL databases on almost all plans, the disk space should be no less than 10GB.
As resources depend on what kind of website you want to host, we at HostingerWeb believe that you should pay only for what you actually need.
It means that you can start with a plan and upgrade your hosting anytime as your website grows.
There are more important factors:
- Uptime. It is crucial for your website to be up and running with as little downtime as possible. Search for providers that have at least 99.9% uptime, because you surely deserve the best!
Keep in mind that uptime depends not only on a web hosting company but on your setup as well. If your website is running on old platforms, the chances of errors arise. It is recommended that you always upgrade your software to the latest version. Moreover, wrong configuration settings can be a cause of downtime too.
- Support. Look for a host that has a customer support service and works 24/7/365 to help you make your webmastering journey as smooth as possible! Maybe someday you will need help in the middle of the night, so it is great to have someone to keep you covered. Time is money, so look for support that has a fast response time.
- .in Domains. If you’re considering registering your website with .in TLD, you should know that not all hosting companies sell those. Of course, you can always buy a domain elsewhere, but then you should know how to point it to your host.
- Tutorials. Always check if your host has a tutorial page or a help center available. That way, you can learn by exploring hundreds of helpful tutorials and how-to guides.
- Payment methods. The most popular payment methods for hosting in India are credit/debit cards and PayPal, so your preferable host should have at least one of these options. For example, with Hostinger, you have an option to pay by eight different payment methods including Bitcoin!
- Freebies. Usually, if you tend to buy a more advanced hosting plan for a more extended period, you get a bunch of freebies, including free SSL, a domain, and emails. So, as a result, you get a better plan and you don’t have to pay for additional features.
- 30-day money-back guarantee. If you’re not satisfied with hosting services, it is always great to have the possibility to get your money back.
To sum up, the amount of resources depends on the type of website you want to host. I believe that you shouldn’t pay for something you don’t even need.
