Siteground Webhosting Review

Like most webhosting companies siteground gives you access to transfer all of your websites from other webhosting companies. So for example if you purchased a website with namecheap. you can easily transfer it over to siteground.

Another example for siteground to host you outside websites. Is to simply just go into your hosting company settings find and edit your DNS (Domain Name Server). Then just change the server name.

For example you can switch: ns1 namecheapbiz  & ns2 namecheapbiz to ns1 sitegroundbiz & ns2 sitegroundbiz. Your website site will the propagate over to your new siteground server this can take up to 24 hours depending on the system.

If you decide to go with siteground after reading my siteground webhosting review. Once you have signed up you can easily find your dns name1&2 in the screenshot below:

Click on websites in your dashboard then go over to site tools. You will be brought onto another page. Scroll down and there you will find you dns1 & dns2 names. You need to change in the settings of your other hosting company and enter the the siteground dns names.

Testomonial From The Experts

In my siteground webhosting review I talk about Syed Balkhi. Syed Balkhi is the co founder and CEO of wpbeginner.com and he had this to say about siteground.

"Sitegoround is a great hosting solution for all your WordPress projects - both new and established ones. The service they provide is stable, secure and super fast. Thanks to the special tools they developed in house for WordPress users".

As you can see siteground is definitely up there at the top with hosting providers and definitely worth a try. I will leave you to decide what is best for yourself there are plenty of providers out there to choose from. My review is based on my own experience.

Research

It is always a good start to do your own research when you are just getting going. I write my reviews on my own research and purchases and put it out there for you to make up your own mind. You can always do a google search for other webhosting companies.

But the reason I did this siteground webhosting review was to help you out. And save you some time in trying to decide what to go for specially when you are first starting out. When I first got going a few years ago.

It was very difficult to get started because of the overwhelming amount of people promoting products and services. Flicking from one thing to the next and not really getting going with anything. That is why I love to write these reviews today.

Building Your Website

Obviously it's very important to get your website up & running. Most popular today is WordPress. With the drag n drop elements and the use of the thousands of plugins & templates available you can't go wrong with WordPress.

Building out your website is the easy part. It's when you come to optimizing your site that can be challenging. And more so if you don't know what your doing. Content creation is key and to be honest you are better off learning how to write your own content.

You can pay writers to create your content for your website. Why I even did this myself when I first started out. But now I prefer to write my own words because I know they are unique to me in my own style and I wont be accused of copying. key things to start are:

• Content Creation
• The right plugins
• The correct use of keywords
• Using the right template for your website & niche
• Using links in the correct place

Get these right and you will be on your way to getting good rankings from Google. Google love original ethical content. Try not to overuse keywords in your posts and write your own content or pay for a writer on (Fiver or Upwork).

Don't copy or use plagiarism your site will suffer later on and get de-ranked from Google. Google don't like copied content unless you have permission from the website owner? Still I wouldn't copy it's best to learn and get used to writing your own content.

Fiver

Fiver is a platform designed for experts & developers offering you services for a wide range of skills. You can pay as a customer to get the services you need to help develop your online business and website.

There are a wide variety of services you can purchase including. Video & voiceover for YouTube videos. Graphics & logo design. Writers and scripts. Web designers and software developers and much more.

I did a health website 12 months ago and I placed an order on fiver for a YouTube video. It was for a health supplement I was promoting. It turned out really well on the finished end product and all I had to do was create my script. I create my own videos now.

Upwork

Upwork is similar to fiver and focuses on web, mobile & software development. Design & creative. Sales & marketing and admin support. Customer service, Data science & analytics and engineering & architecture.

Again there is a great skillset on Upwork and it is more expensive than fiver. I used up work a lot when I first started out online. My main focus was getting people to write my articles. I don't do that now as I write my own content.

I thought I would put that out there for you anyway. But the main focus on this post is to help you out with your hosting. This is key for you to get started online because without a good hosting company. (With great support & security) It would be hard for you to start. 

Overview

Now there are a-lot out there to choose from when it comes to webhosting. But I personally use siteground and I am very happy with them. Good support, great site speed and security, easy backend to navigate.

For top business experts like Syed Balkhi to use siteground. I would say it has worked for him over the years to be able to get where he is today. Obviously it took a lot more for him to achieve his goals than just a good hosting company.

Having a good online business is very competitive and achievable if done right. Not just good hosting but, having a good business model, time and planning and never giving up. Also great structuring of your website and optimizing your site correctly.   

This can be achieved and the key once everything is set up right is traffic. Traffic = sales. I will talk more about traffic in another post but for now I hope you gained some value from my siteground webhosting review post

Conclution 

Having the right hosting is always a good start when starting an online business. Also I mentioned in my siteground online review about having a good online business and to focus on high quality content.

This all depends of course on how you approach it? To get ranked and gain free organic traffic you need a lot of quality content and this is a slower option and more natural. Say it you wanted quicker results then you would need to pay for ads. 

This is more expensive  but can get you quicker results depending what kind of a budget you have. he more you spend the quicker the results. Hope this has been helpful and Please let me know in the comments if I can help you with anything?

Thanks again for taking the time out to read my siteground webhosting review. Best of luck and kind regards
