Emerging Web Hosting Markets for New Developers

06/04/2012 by Jared Smith

Emerging web hosting markets for new developers

Web hosting is essential for any website to run and most people seem to know this. The closer the server is to the customer then the faster the website download speed is going to be. With the global trend leaning towards worldwide internet dominance, web hosting companies may be required to have locations across the globe in order to grow. Some markets may be small but untapped, or some markets may be large but inaccessible. This makes for a tough decision on which markets to capture.

To that end, HostDime has singled out two emerging markets based on the future growth of internet access and internet economy.

Why It Pays to Go with a Web Hosting Provider with their own Datacenter

05/22/2012 by Jared Smith

Why It Pays to Go with a Web Hosting Provider with a DatacenterChoosing a web hosting provider can be a difficult decision. There are dozens of providers and a variety of price ranges for what appears to be the same service. It can be confusing for both the average businessperson and the tech savvy. Most consumers seem to be looking for the best value for their dollar in web hosting including configuration, bandwidth, software and most importantly support.

So, how does one decide which provider to go with? A comparative study of hard drives and bandwidth is the simpler side of choosing a provider. However, what can really make or break this decision is excellent service and support. 24/7 customer service and a host that owns, controls, and operates their own datacenter seems to be the logical choice.

HostDime rises to the occasion.

I’ve never been a ‘must have’ kind of guy. Case in point — I still do not own an iPhone. Perhaps I’m just stubborn. Nevertheless, there is one thing that my intractability seems to be immune to — YouTube. I don’t know what it is about that website that seems to entice me…but consider me hooked!

Ongoing Legal Battle between Google and Oracle Heats Up

Perhaps that’s a question that the minds at Google may be pondering. It has recently been reported that the company wants a mistrial in their ongoing legal feud with Oracle. It turns out that Oracle took the search giant to court in regards to them believing that Google violated copyrights related to its Java API package back in 2010. According to CNET, Google’s request was supplemented by a formal proposal to the court asking it to “declare a mistrial” in order to bring in a new court proceeding.
