What is the 3 most important things to you in a web host?

I have been thinking about this for a while now, not just today, but literally months. Trying to provide my customers with the best experience possible. I like to think I do a good job. But every so often I wonder what I could do better, or what other companies could do better too. So I'm asking: What are the 3 most important things to you (a consumer) when you purchase web hosting?

 

give reliable support. don't BS (that goes with anything). have all the basic things.

 

I only have two most important things that I would like to receive from a host and that is good support and reliability.

 

Speed Speed And Speed!

 

Support, uptime, and speed.

 

For me it's uptime, customer support and price.

 

speed and good support and cheap

 

There are only three to me and they are in this order:

1. Reliability
2. Support
3. Price

 

1. Honesty
2. Reliability
3. Support

 

How would you measure Honesty before it's too late? Just curious . . .

I got screwed by 1&1 for years before I found out they lied to me about all kinds of crap.

 

thats how you find out, but you can find out by looking the host up on google and see what turns up. ipowerweb screwed me for 3 years before i got out.
if i looked on the net, there are a shit load of sites about how bad they are.

 

Yeah, when we first started creating web sites we used ipowerweb too and their reliability SUCKED big time. I had sites that were down for days. I think we only stuck around with them for about a year or less.

See my post here for what we use now and are VERY happy with them.

 

Price, speed and support.

 

Uptime
Speed
Affordable

 

Insane Uptime and a 1800 number for support.

 

1. Speed
2. Reliability
3. Good support

 

Good uptime Good support And good price

 

1, 2, and 3: honesty.
Good customer support, uptime, speed, reliability - consequences.

 

- Customer support
- Features -- most important
- price
- one more - Uptime.
