If you need to start a website for your small business, you will need some kind of hosting, and you will probably want to start with shared hosting. Shared hosting is an especially affordable form of hosting in which multiple websites are hosted on a server computer.
Concentric Business Solutions (Concentric.com) is a leading provider of shared web hosting for small businesses. They have multiple shared hosting options available, starting from a simple email plan to a basic start-up hosting plan. They also have more extensive plans, but a new website would probably start with one of the starter plans.
They also offer domain registration services, which is especially helpful if you are looking for a one-stop shop so to speak. They also offer free virus protection and spam filters, which will obviously come in handy.
I think the best part of Concentric is the way they tailor to a growing business. They have all the starter plans for a new business, but then they have many more plans available for a growing business. That is very helpful so that one doesn’t get stuck with the problem of having a site that is too busy for a small plan but too small to afford too large of a plan.
