Below are POINTS to consider before you go for a Web Host !
Firstly support quality – phone or chat or ticketing system and read and consult others to know their track record or service till date.
server uptime promise: 99% or above is a must
bandwidth and disc space : Dont go by Size , but now a days almost every hosting company has started offering unlimited space and unlimited bandwidth, this does not mean you have the world on your website, if your traffic is going out of control the managed hosting would not do and you would have to purchase a dedicated hosting.
Database : for Linux servers its usually MYSQL, make sure you have it included in the package.
supported languages: PHP, ASP, MySQL and other Server Languages

Ah so you want to know what is Hosting and what are the types , I guess you might be having a basic knowledge of what web Hosting is all about, And well if you do not know, not a big deal, that is the way everyone starts off from ground zero.
Basically when you want a website the basic requirements are a domain name, a web hosting space. We b hosting is like taking a rented house on the low end and you might also could by a house ( own server or dedicated server). But usually webmasters prefer hosted website provided by a service provider or an hosting company as that is Risk free and all you have to maintain is your website, its security, patching, datacenter set up and everything else is taken care by a hosting company with a 99.99 % up time.
So coming back to the point, while hosting a website, its the space on the internet where you upload the files that should be loaded when your visitor enters your domain name and the domain name is pointed to your web space.
Internet hosting services can run Web servers; see Internet hosting services.
Hello,
Keeping up with our promise of providing you with the safest hosting environment, we have to make a few changes to our PHP installation on our Linux Hosting Servers. We will be disabling a few PHP functions that allow users to execute system commands on the servers that disclose system information in a shared hosting environment. These functions are sparingly required by clients and are more of a security threat to your websites.
The functions that will be deprecated are:
system, shell_exec, exec, passthru, php_uname, popen, posix_kill, posix_mkfifo, posix_setpgid, posix_setsid, posix_setuid, posix_setgid, posix_uname, proc_close, proc_nice, proc_open, proc_terminate
We will be making these changes on Friday, 27th of November, 2009. If you are using these functions in your PHP scripts, you will have to inform your customers accordingly about these changes.
Your co-operation is highly appreciated.
Adding a new avatar image to the default wordpress avatar called mystery man was always a new bloggers problem, Follow our tutorial and choose avatar which is more suitable to your theme.
Open your theme’s functions.php file and add this new function.
add_filter( 'avatar_defaults', 'newgravatar' );
function newgravatar ($avatar_defaults) {
$myavatar = get_bloginfo('template_directory') . '/images/my-gravatar.jpg';
$avatar_defaults[$myavatar] = "My Avatar";
return $avatar_defaults;
}
We are done. Using the add_filter function we changed the avat_default function a little bit, with newgravatar function. We added our new avatar in default wordpress avatar list. Change my-gravatar.jpg with your own. This file must be located in /images/ folder of your theme.
Now in order to change your default avatar go to Settings>Discussion and choose your image.
Cheers, Joshu
