Nigerian Webhosting Industry by Nobody: 1:04pm On Jun 26, 2013
The Nigerian Webhosting industry is en-bridled in a silent price war tussle. Each new webhost intends to outdo the other by rice undercutting. One web host comes and cuts the price below what the other did until everyone is barely making any profits from it. Well! Customers are the better for it because they get to spend less.

One Nigerian webhost comes and offers a 5Mb package for N100 and then the next comes and offers that same package for N90. And on and on. Like I said its good for the customer but this has made customers buying choice to turn just to price, “Who can offer me the lowest price?” Besides Price there should be other things to look out for. why should you a customer pay N90 or even N100 for a webhosting space of 5Mb, when in actual sense you only need half of that space or bandwidth. Its like ordering for a N5000 shawarma at Mr. Biggs when you know you can only consume N1000 worth of it. Does Mr Biggs Sell shawarma?

Its far better to pay a higher price for quality than paying a very low price for sub standard and annoying service. My Friend Tito Philips from Naijapreneur blog will advice to develop your competitive strategy on other factors rather than price. Look for those that have a strategy beyond price, those ones are the Nigerian web hosts that are into business.
Here are some factors your should look into before choosing a web host.

1.Amount of storage: When choosing your web hosting, one of your primary concerns will obviously be “How much data can I store?” For most small and medium web sites, you’ll find that several gigabytes should be plenty of storage. Some hosts may offer “unlimited storage”.

2. More Domains and Sub-domains: Once you’re running one site, there’s a good chance it won’t be long before you get another one up … and then a third. It would be a real pain in the neck to have to manage a hosting account for each site you own, so make sure your web host will let you host multiple domains.

3. Databases: You’ll want to make sure you can use the type of database you’re comfortable with. Most hosts today offer MySQL; that’s probably enough for most people, but if you’d prefer PostsgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server, or another flavour, don’t settle for anything less.


4. Site Back up plan: Though most Nigerian webhosts will promise you a guaranteed utime and the assurance that your files are safe, you still need to check if they have a back up lan in place. Don’t think that your web host is any less susceptible to data loss than your own computers; remember, servers are just big computers that everyone can read files from!


Become a Smart webmaster or internet enterpreneur today. Make your research before going for another web hosting provider. I would personally rather pay for a smaller hosting space and use the remainder cash to pay for a cloud back up or online back up service than paying the whole amount for a big hosting space while I will only need less than a quarter of that size for both my website files and bandwidth. Save money and upgrade when your site grows.
