Basic & Special Features:
Check for network uptime, disk space capacity, amount of data transfer, supported languages/scripts or databases, and security level. These are the basic things you need to consider regardless of what kind of website you are going to setup. They have a big impact on your site. Your website should be up and running 24/7 so that anyone at anytime can visit it.
Features that may also be useful include various email functionalities, domain management, file administration, and other free add-ons and software. They can automate and ease up tasks in maintaining your site.

Customer Service:
There are instances when your Webmaster already checked everything and still it won’t just work. This is best time to test your hosting support and customer service. Customer representatives should be professional at all times. They should be able to address your concern immediately and with utmost consideration. Most web hosting companies nowadays have 24/7 online chat.
