Web Hosting- UPtime
The hosting providers those offers full guarantee of uptime are generally based on past information and track record. The uptime can be tested out and uphold throughout a service provider that give full day monitoring. Well-known hosting companies generally have deputed staff and establishment to check their server all the time. Most of them have outmoded server which work at the time when the basic server fails. Few established hosting company usually have one additional server in use to reduce the downtime problem.As a smaller company it is difficult to afford those infrastructures like establish companies, however in such case of downtime, you can friendly message to your customers if downtime occurs, you can use your discussion board or mail to inform the temporarily downtime that occur, this able to maintain your image as a reliable host in front of your customer. Generally a reliable web host provides quick return if the server is down as they need to maintain their uptime guarantee and to get back on normalcy they have a staff who works right away when such problem of downtime occurs. But you may face larger downtimes in small web hosting company.
As a customer you should always opt to get review about a hosting company about the downtime, there are many hosting forums that review and rate hosting companies and keep updated about such information.
If you as a site owner want to reduce the problem of larger downtimes, you can avoid purchasing the package from web host that has a lot of downtimes. Also there are many forums and websites that keep the current record and reviews of almost all the hosting companies, where you can find their rating, their services and uptime they provide, and you can decide well before choosing any provider. If you often experience lot of downtime I would suggest better to migrate to any reliable host providers as it will affect your business. But make sure not a single company can provides 100% uptime guarantee
