Sounds like the old country and western song by Johnny Lee from the movie "Urban Cowboy"?

Well, most people are looking for web hosting in all the wrong places. They enter "web hosting" into Google or Yahoo and are inundated by all of the advertising for web hosts. When you read what they have to offer, it is all the same thing. There is really not one iota of difference between any of them.

Each web host tout bandwidth, gigs of storage, free domain names, great support, free software, etc. They have fancy websites done by professional graphic designers made to catch your eye and get you to sign up.

Another "wrong place" is under the search term "web host review". These sites are built to make the site owner money by referring people to the web host for which the reviewer receives an affiliate commission. Odds are the reviewer has never hosted a website on any of the reviewed sites. The reviewer is using second hand knowledge to post information about the sites.

The best web host is the one that provides you with the best chance of success. Unfortunately, the best web host will not be found in the hype of the review sites or on the first page of Google search for "web host".

You can find the best web host if you spend time and drill down for the right answer.

The right place to look for the best web host is to search for the one that publicizes the success rate of the websites that it hosts. You ask, "How do you measure the success of a website". The best way is to find its Alexa rating. This will tell you how the website ranks against all other websites on the Internet.

When you start looking for the best web host, look for one that provides this information. Find the answer to "How to build a successful website".
