Do you need to buy or change a hosting service for your site or that of your company? If the answer is yes, read on.
The online presence of companies is increasing week after week: this was certainly affected by the recent coronavirus pandemic , and this has prompted many companies to strengthen their presence on the web. Precisely due to the fact that there is a tendency to be much more online, websites must be increasingly functional, updated and ready to receive ever more substantial flows of visits. Web that, net of social pages, today ends up being extremely focused on increasingly complex and elaborate websites ( blogs, e-commerce , and so on), came out (hopefully) forever from the dimension of “my cousin good with computer “, and entrusted to professionals in the sector who can evaluate every single technical aspect.
Quality hosting = fast hosting
In many cases, the first requirement for a hosting service is that it be fast, but… what glitters is not always gold. The speed of a site is a different thing from the speed of hosting , a bit like what happens for audio speakers: here, to make an effective comparison, the speed of hosting is a bit like the maximum power, while at the speed of site is a bit the so-called nominal power, the one that seriously matters (net of its design, of the DOM structure, of how the JS dependencies are resolved, of how the CSS code was inserted, of how – among other things – the site has been optimized on the cache side, CMS, number of plugins or addons, code speed, database speed)
The speed of page loading , for example, is considered a fundamental aspect for ranking : and this is not yet another guess from SEO, but it is an officially recognized factor by Google ( source ). for those who are not up to date on the subject, in fact, it has been like this for at least a couple of years, and it seems that the trend can do nothing but consolidate more and more. In this scenario, hosting services assume fundamental importance: no longer cheap hosting for a few euros a year, now, perhaps entrusted to improvised and sovereign low cost resellers, but secure and complete IT solutions, which can provide the tools to manage a company website or an e-commerce site with due care. Solutions that, in conclusion, also guarantee a good page loading time (TTFB), multiple configurations in terms of cache and servers used.
Better to choose a secure hosting!
How to Choose the Right Host for Reliable and Secure Hosting ? The security aspect , in these cases, is very important – and not just to avoid finding ourselves on a website “pierced” by some malware: this, net of the annoyance, risks ruining our reputation (a hacked site never makes a good impression and risks discrediting the brand), making us lose data ( we always make a backup : the most popular Suiss hostingallow you to do it directly inside the hosting panel) and, last but not least, this is also a positioning factor on the SEO side. Proof of this is the fact that, in the Search Console of our websites, malware infections are routinely reported, which in some cases not only compromise the site but can also index webspam pages without our knowledge.
To prevent these situations, a local hosting can be a great hand: both because the hosting skills are increasingly oriented to these problems a little by force of things, and because you will speak with qualified technical assistance and in Suiss, resorting to the limit to a managed hosting service (i.e. managed entirely by their web security side).
