Establish Your Digital Footprint With A Cloud

By Ron Rice


A digital footprint is necessary to the success of a business. A digital footprint describes your presence on the world wide web. Your website is important in establishing a web presence.

A good website is great investment. Your website is your office in cyberspace. You need more than just a website that looks good. A business needs a website that will work properly. Potential clients can be turned off by websites that run slow and crash.

Cloud hosting helps ensure websites run properly. Large companies are abandoning their old ways of web hosting and using cloud hosting.

With cloud hosting data is stored across multiple servers. The cloud is the term used to describe all the servers. Large amounts of traffic can cause websites to run slower. Information can be accessed as its needed across multiple servers.

Google is a good example. Millions of cyber surfers visit Google. Google does not experience slow response times from all its traffic. Google is hosted by servers that operate using cloud technology. They store their information across many servers. If one server failures it has others to back it up. Websites who take advantage of cloud hosting don't experience slow traffic and response times. Websites that are only supported by one server will not have the benefits supported by cloud hosting.

With cloud hosting you only pay for what you used. Cloud hosting is similar to how an electric company charges. With cloud hosting, you don't pay for resources you don't use. You are billed based on visitors and resources.

Cloud hosting is not cost effective for small businesses but the cost of cloud hosting is going down. Medium sized companies are trusting their website hosting needs to cloud technology. Small businesses will be able to take advantage of cloud hosting in the near future.

Implementing cloud hosting is simple. Companies no longer need servers on-site. Cloud hosting frees up space used by servers. Cloud providers also offer the necessary controls and backups necessary for server function. Companies can focus on growing their business rather than maintaining servers. Cloud infrastructure is handled off-site with 24/7 support. More companies are expected to switch to cloud hosting as the cyber marketplace grows. Cloud hosting is a smart solution for a growing digital marketplace.
