We see alot of articles on the web about webhosting. Here I would like to know from you all, that what are the 3 most important parts of webhosting that a webmaster wants to know about? In otherwords, which three things about webhosting you want to learn about?

please reply to this post as this we help us in writing articles about hosting on what webmasters want.

IMO, webmasters always should consider following points for web hosting business.

1. Professional and corporate business website Setup.
2. 24/7 and reliable technical support plan. Helpdesk or a ticket system, phone and live support chat are best possible ways.
3. You should have a good billing system in place. Modernbill or Clientexec are nice billing system available.
4. Right advertising and promotion techniques used. Banner ads, word of mouth, buiness cards, link exchanges etc. to mention a few work effectively.

In no particular order:

1. 24/7 support via email, with at least 8/5 support by 800 line.

2. Support for the platforms and technologies that we use. If I'm building a site in ASP, I don't care about a host that specializes in PHP.

3. Backbone. Are they on one or at least reasonably close to one?

4. Number of employees. At least 4 is a good number, since 4 or more generally means the company isn't some kid in his parents' basement with a Linux box going "look at me, I can host websites".

5. Reviews. What do other people say about the host?

6. Plans. Do they have more than one? Can people upgrade? How easy is it?

7. 30-day money back guarantee. This is a must.

Those are the things I generally look for. I know it's not three, but a good hosting customer will have a bunch of things they're looking for.

how about domain addon, domain pointer?
