You can see that you get 3 types of plans here. single web hosting,premium web hosting and business web hosting and their features are given below.

In single web hosting you can only host 1 website as you see and you cannot get a domain for free. i suggest you go for premium web hosting,their you can get a domain for free and add 100 websites which is a great deal. 24/7 customer support.

If you do not have that much budget,then you can start with single web hosting.

which is a great deal too.one of the most important thing is that is SSL certificate which gets you free in all the plans.whose price Rs-855. we will talk about this last. why it is important?

It is bit expensive but if you have money to invest,budget then you definately go with Siteground hosting. it will also give you benifits in future with good perfermance. you can also see their plans and add-on plans.

A2 Hosting

If i talk about another good host that is A2 hosting, why?

I liked it here that if you take it for 1 year or for whatever year you take it and if you do not like anything in between then you get the rest of your money back.

Hostgator

Hostgator is also one of the best web hosting.if you have money to invest then you can also go with Hostgator.these are all popular and trusted hosts.

There are more hosts but i like the performance and features of these 4 hosts.if you like any other hosts,then check before purchasing their plans and features.

If you want a little discount then don’t forget to ask a coupon code before purchasing. if available, you will get some % discount.

What is SSL certificate ?

SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, to understand SSL let us first understand the difference between HTTP and HTTPS.

HTTP: whenever data transfer occurs.suppose i visited a website or type anything in the search bar. that data transfer happens to the server, it will be in plane text. meaning someone in the middle can read it by interrupting it.

HTTPS: At the same time,if there is HTTPS, then it will be transfer to the encrypted format,then no one can read it in between.

So here SSL certificate basically authenticates the identity of the website that it is the same website and there has been no data transferring in between and all encrypted format transfer is done which secure website and user data.it is also good for SEO and trust factor.
