What Do You Consider When Looking For A Hosting Site by Nobody: 1:13am On Aug 26, 2016
Good day fam,
I planned on hosting my new site on a foreign hosting company but when i got the new exchange right i had to calm down and look for alternatives.

see bro, struggle, ignore the exchange rate and get the foreign host...
But if you go ahead and buy from any Africa/Nigerian host, I bet you will get frustrated, you won't be able to sleep due to frequent downtime...

I will advice, instead of Nigeria host, use a free host... cool

You can use namecheap to get started. They offer discount for a start. If you are registering .ng domain you can use Nigeria registrar but for hosting just look for money for namecheap. I think you can get started for about $12 or less for the first year. But you will pay about $39 from the second year.

I will advise you go for Mifihost.You won't regret. I was also skeptical at first. Its a foreign host o. I am currently hosted on their platform. There's a promo going on now for $9.99/Year. Checkout their page. Some of their plans are renewable with the same Promo Prices you signed up with so don't be afraid of Exorbitant renewal fees. Visit mifihost.com .

Lest i forget. Like a guy said earlier If you are registering .ng or .com.ng domain name you can use Nigeria registrar but for cheapest and reliable hosting i give it to for mifihost.

-Give the specs they offer for each plan a thorough check to be sure there's no scam involved, e.g if you see unlimited bandwidth attributed to the lowest plan think twice.
And you should not also settle for less though.

-Consider their reputation, check how long they have been running and more, do your background check on them.

-Do they have good customer care? that which you can easily reach?

...

There are good web hosting companies in Nigeria though I don't want to start giving names. Just Search.

Got more tech related questions? Need advice on anything website? check my signature, the blog has a forum. Good day.
