Why is web site hosting significant to your small business? Nowadays, we use the internet even just to look up a word in the dictionary. Every other source of information has become a second option to the internet. Everything else is a backup, just in case the internet doesn't have it.
We use the internet to go window shopping and order by mail. We use it for entertainment, research and communication. Some even use the internet to look for love. Everything we need is on the internet, which begs the question: what happens to the things that aren't on the internet? Well, we'll never know -- simply because outside of their locality, no one has ever really heard of them.
On the other hand, free web site hosting is great for personal use; but there are no guarantees. A company's website isn't just a source of information; it's also a form of branding. It represents what the company wants people to think of them. Slow file hosting and frequent interruptions or pop-ups from host-sponsors will affect this perception. Sometimes, mandatory sponsored links can even lead potential customers directly to your competitors.
