Looking for a good web store hosting and software?

My company currently has a web store hosted “in house” but we are trying to move our services and web store out. Does anyone have a good suggestion for a web store? We looked at Go Daddy and was impressed but until a new employee told us the horror story his last company had using them. Does anyone have any suggestions to a full featured web store with as few bugs as possible? We have less then 100 products to sell but our store is already a viable living breathing part of our business and we can not afford much down time.

Answer:

Have you heard about SBI? Unlike GoDaddy, looks like this one has good reviews all over the internet (although most reviews seem like affiliate spam). Go to: http://hostingsthatsuck.com/go/sitebuildit.php

I want to start web hosting/designing in Visakhapatnam city on my own.How would it progress, please suggest.?

I have programming and knowledge in web designing, looking for a full time career/business as a web designer and provide comprehensive support to prospective clients in Visakhapatnam City of AP and slowly spread to other parts of State/country.

Answer:

I would start out becoming a host reseller. This will enable you to get your hosting business off the ground without the large expense of state of the art equipment.

In most reseller agreements you buy an amount of space on a server and you are able to customize it for your own needs. You can create your own packages and prices. If you enjoy being a web host then you can grow gradually until you are able to purchase your own servers and software.

Is there a difference between web hosting and web server?

I am looking to transfer my website from a friends to a server of my own. Not sure what the difference is between hosting and server. Also would appreciate any recommendations.

Answer:

A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation.

The term web server can mean one of two things:
1. A computer program that is responsible for accepting HTTP requests from web clients, which are known as web browsers, and serving them HTTP responses along with optional data contents, which usually are web pages such as HTML documents and linked objects (images, etc.).
2. A computer that runs a computer program as described above.
