Every time you need a new website hosting plan, it’s a riot choosing the best hosting plans. They come in all convenient sizes, VPS, Shared, Dedicated with bandwidth limit, without limit and what not.

One thing I’ve learned over the years, is that these “packages” are an eye wash. When they say unlimited bandwidth, that doesn’t really mean unlimited. You won’t figure it out unless you read the terms and conditions.

But what’s important is to chose a web hosting plan based on your website’s requirements. You don’t need to go for the most expensive dedicated hosting “fearing” social media traffic. There are less expensive custom designed web hosting packages that can withstand social media traffic. And shared hosting is not always bad. If your website traffic is within manageable limits, there are ways to make sure that social media traffic doesn’t blow up your resources.

How to find a web host based on traffic?

The one tool that I’ve used time and again to search for hosting plans based on website traffic is HostUcan’s website hosting plan search tool.

It’s a web hosting plan search engine that lets you search hosting plans based on your website’s traffic, platform, price or even country specifications.

All you got to do is make the appropriate selection from the search box and click search. It gives you a list of all the matches results which you can again filter.

It’s a great tool to find out which are the best hosting plans available out there. And since they keep it updated every other day, its pretty accurate too. Check it out!
