With the rapid development of the Internet, foreign servers have become the choice of many users. For the promotion and operation of the entire website, the security and stability of the website are very important, involving the selection of foreign hosting companies. At present, there are many IDC merchants on foreign networks, and the competition is fierce. When you choose, you should not be tempted by the low price temptation, such as the "agent price" or "internal price" of some unknown providers to avoid being cheated.
It is worth mentioning that the choice of foreign servers must first be based on customer experience. After all, distance has an impact on access speed. However, no matter which foreign server is selected, the main principles cannot be changed. These key factors must be considered.
- Operating system selection
First of all, no matter Windows system or Linux system, it refers to foreign server systems. Therefore, before selecting a foreign server, you must specify the language for writing website programs. Generally speaking, the PHP program selects Linux system, ASP, ASP NET is applicable to Windows systems. Many computer rooms in foreign countries do not support customized installation of Windows systems, but the use of Windows provided by computer rooms requires additional system fees, so more attention should be paid to this point.
- Pay attention to the price
For foreign server leasing, cost performance is also very important. Because it is a personal website, it may be a problem in terms of funds. Therefore, many of our friends like to rent cheap foreign servers, which is understandable. However, it cannot be too cheap, and foreign servers are cheap. If the configuration is very low, it cannot be used after purchase, which is not worth it. Therefore, the choice depends first on the price and second on the performance of the server configuration. Pay attention to the overall cost performance.
- Reasonably select demand
Before renting a foreign server, be sure to carefully analyze the website. Some novice webmasters choose foreign websites in advance when they don't want to build any websites. This is a very big mistake. The station must be built first. Analyze the website to be built. What type of website it is, where the user is, what configuration is required, and how to develop it in the later stage need to be analyzed by the website administrator. Only by analyzing this, can you better understand yourself. What kind of foreign servers are needed.
- Select a large data center
The data center is the location where the server is leased. For renting foreign servers, it is very important to choose a high-quality data room. Because the server hardware performance configuration of well-known data centers is relatively high, it is not only stable and has a large load capacity, but also has a low risk of security failure. This is also very useful for large integrated websites.
- After sales service is very important
After sales service is particularly important for foreign server products. As the leasingof foreign servers is a long-term process, it is inevitable to encounter some problemsinthe use process. Therefore, once encountering problems, it is very important to contactthe technical customer service of the hosting company in a timely manner and solvethe problems quickly.
