I agree with you Mary, one must not categorize hosting services by what they are named, cheap hosting doesn't really mean cheap and an expensive hosting good. one must do research first of various hosting companies and find hosting that really fits your needs and has the support you'll be needing

If you are not sure about the website hosting company, you can contact them through a live chat. You can ask them for suggestions and clear all your doubts. An efficient website hosting company will surely provide you with all the answers and information.

IMO, there's nothing anything like 'Cheap or Expensive Web Hosting. In Webhosting world the ultimate truth is "What you Pay is what you Get" however not all expensive webhost can ensure you excellent hosting services hence it's always advice to crosscheck the quality of hosting services & support for your preferred webhost.

In my opinion, one must check if the website hosting company is offering the following:
  • 24/7 technical support
  • Pro-active server monitoring
  • Customer support
  • Easy billing system
It is worth investing in such company as every issue will be takes care of and you can enjoy uptime even in the high traffic conditions.

Your advice is good but we cannot assure if the person you contact from that company will tell you the truth, checking out hosting review sites and personal articles about experiences from hosting companies will be more useful.

In order to know more about the authenticity of the web hosting company, you can initiate a live chat and ask questions about what kind of technical support is provided and more information about the data center. You may ask them technical questions. You can also read the customer testimonials.

You will also come across some website hosting companies that offer with a money back guarantee. You can try their services, they are surely good website hosting companies because they are confident about the quality of the hosting services offered. This is also a good way of checking the authenticity of the web hosting company.

Even though I work for Webhosting UK, I think for whatever web hosting provider you are looking at going with, check reviews of that company on the web, by finding reviews through search engines. Look through the company's forums (if they have one), perhaps call up sales over the phone and ask any questions regarding the company and their services, and particularly what services you are interested in with any questions you have.

Have a look around the website. Most importantly though, try and find reviews from other customers. Now of course relying on reviews on the actual company's forum itself isn't enough as with anything you can't trust one source alone. Find reviews on various websites and forums. A good forum search engine is Boardreader - Forum Search Engine.

Reading the online reviews and customer testimonials gives a fair idea about the quality of service provided by the web hosting company.

Mary i am agree with your words, if any one wants the web hosting with 24/7 customer support and the best features for that you have to pay some cost.
Thanks

Make sure to perform a through research before selecting a web hosting company and consider all the factors that would matter your website's performance.
