There are a few things that are extremely important when it comes to your business hosting. The first is the guarantee that your website will always be up and visible to your potential clients or customers. This is essential because if it is not up then you will not get the business that you want and you find that your business suffers.
Many companies now will be able to offer 99.9% uptime, giving a little leeway for when there are unexpected server problems or when someone on your shared server has used more than what they should have. This will generally mean that you will not really notice when your website is down because it will be a couple of minutes one day a year.
However, there are times that you will find that you website is down longer. When this happens, you should be kept up to date with the problem. This could be due to a part in the server has broken and it will take a little longer to fix it.
