Dating S.O.S

By Emily F.

Anyone participating in any sort of web 2.0 activity (i.e. you are an addicted blogger, such as my husband) means you are at one point or another looking at different options and trying to make a web hosting choice. As I was helping my husband choose a webhost the other day, I was sorting through literally hundreds of different plans and companies. While one offered more bandwidth, the other offered more storage space, and on went the comparison.

Odly enough, writing down the priorities and trying to find “a perfect match” I couldn’t help but compare it to finding a mate. We’re always compromising; whether looking for prince charming or a perfect match for your website, life is a balancing act. Weighing pros and cons and making lists with priorities are everywhere in life. Thus, one would think most people should be able to recognize the perfect match when it hits them in the face, right?

Maybe not so much. Everyone makes mistakes. From choosing the wrong partner, to finding a better webhost after you’ve signed up elsewhere. Some mistakes are easier to fix than others though, but I’d say: set your priorities and don’t settle until you find the match that is perfect for you (or your website!)
