1# Figure out what you want in a webhost first. Do you just want one to play around with and have one for your friends and family or do you want one for your local business or to create a way of making money online? Free web hosts will be fine to play around on but you will need something more if you want it for a business or making money online.

2# Do they have an easy site builder system if you don't know any programming or anything about making websites? Most do these days. But be aware that most Site Builders provided by hosting companies are proprietary. They often work only on that hosting company's servers. If so, your site cannot be moved to another host without rebuilding from scratch.

3# Do they have cPanel, ispCP or ISPConfig with a system that will let you set up your own blog or forum with a few clicks? (cPanel, ispCP or ISPConfig, like others, is just a system that lets users access the files and website without knowing how to use ftp -file transfer protocol.) Many find this availability useful, but you must be aware it will do for small sites, not medium or big corporate ones, because of the difficulty to update.

4# If you don't know anything about creating a website will they teach you what you need to know to get the site found and achieve the goal you have for the site?

5# Get e-mail through the domain name of your website. It's best to go with a host that provides unlimited autoresponders, pop mailboxes, email aliases etc. These services are needed to stay in touch with your visitors, potential customers and indeed your past customers in the hope of back end sales. Using your_name@your_website_name.com also looks more professional and official.
