Are you hosted in trusted web server ?

Most of the serious bloggers bought their own domain name and web hosting from web hosting provider. As a beginner or moderate bloggers, you might not be able to rent a dedicated server to host your own blog. I believe you are one of the bloggers or website owner that host your blog in shared hosting like me.

So now the question, is your blog or website hosted in a trusted web server? How to check whether your web hosting is trusted?

How to check your blog’s neighbors?

The method is just like how you choose which house to buy? Normally smart resident will ask around the residents nearby and observe their living environment (including the type of residents, geographical and living standard) before they make decision to buy or rent a house.

So in this blogsphere, we also need to check the environment before choose the trusted web hosting. With myIPneighbors IP search, you can check who are your web hosting neighbors.

With the result from myIPneighbors, you will know whether your blog or website packed into a crowded host with hundreds of other sites? Or is there questionable content being hosted side by side with your site? If so, it may be time to look for a better host.

For example, I’ve done a search on the domain name AhTim.com by using myIPneighbors. And guess what? It shows that the server is hosting 37 domains or subdomains together which is quite reasonable. That’s the reason why my blog loaded in so fast! With this full list, I browse through my neighbors’ websites and observe their type and rank. From that information collection, roughly you will know whether this is trusted web hosting or not.

For my case, of course it is trusted host. Why? There are 3 main reasons:

  • Neighbor with Liewcf, who has been a full time blogger for years. Since the host capable to support thousands of daily visitors and millions of hits per month for years, no doubt that this is trusted and reliable host.
  • There are no questionable content or scam website in the hosting server.
  • 37 domains (including subdomains) in a host is not crowded. Fast response can be expected.

How about your neighbors? Who are they?
