Unique Features that leading Web Hosts Are Now Offering
Some web hosts are offering more than others for the same price
or even for a lower price. There is no denying the fact that as
competition increases amongst web hosting services, many are
looking for ways and means to stand out and be different from
their competitors. The result is that web hosting service
standards are constantly on the rise and webmasters are
constantly enjoying amazing new features that were previously
not there. Let us take a look at a few that some web hosts are
now regularly offering to their clients.
There are website hosts that help clients publish and manage
their own email newsletters or ezines. This is a powerful
marketing tool that helps increase sales. Some hosts go further
and also offer an unlimited number of auto responders. This
helps a site owner automatically follow up with prospects and
thus dramatically increase the chances of making a sale.
We also now have hosting services that help you set up set up
your own affiliate program. Affiliate programs are the proven
most effective way of getting traffic and profits for
webmasters. Pioneered by sites like Amazon.com, this is where
you enable other website owners to promote your site and
products on their site and in return earn commissions from the
sales that result from traffic that they have referred to your
site.
Another popular emerging new feature from hosts is the service
that helps you protect your download page where you are selling
digital products like e-books or software from your site. The
number of hackers is on the increase and this is an increasingly
vital service for many webmasters.
Some hosting services are also addressing the rapidly increasing
menace of junk mail and provide quality filters to protect your
email accounts. Some even provide built-in anti-virus software
so that email that arrives with viruses, is automatically
deleted.
