Check your hosting plan before the end of the year.  Most web hosting plans will expire at the begining of the year in January.   Over the years Amurge has been able to save companies and non-profit organizations thousands per year just by reviewing their hosting plans and moving to a lower cost provider. 

Alot of people out there might be frightened by a low cost provider or think that they won't get the same support.  Actually, the opposite is usually the case, the low cost hosting providers typically have more service offerings at a less price then what you are paying.  The majority of the low cost providers have 24x7 technical support. 

Ok so what does this mean to you, that you might be able to move your hosting to a provider that will better support your needs at a lower cost.  Don't take the web designers word for it do your homework and look at the differences before making a decision. 

Some points to look at before you make the decision to move hosting providers:

• Look at the plan that you are paying for and compare the price to what you would be paying you could save a ton of money
• Make sure that the monthly transfer rates are the same or better
• Make sure the storage capacity for the plan is the same or better
• Make sure you get the email for free ( most companies are doing this, unless its Exchange hosting )
• Call both providers and see what type of response you get from both sales and support

These are just a couple of points to think about before you renew your hosting plan.   Reviewing your hosting plan can save you alot of money on an annual basis.  Check out www.amurge.com for our current rates.
