How to Choose the Right ISP for Your Needs

Choosing an Internet Service Provider for first timers can be daunting to say the least. With various companies offering different deals and bargains, claiming that they have the best solution to your needs, it can be very easy to fall into the trap of sales market speeches and gimmicks.

Researching into ISP can also be fairly tricky as a lot of forums and information sites are full of jargon and computer terminology that will confuse most people even further. The best is to start looking at exactly what you need before searching for products.

Some types of ISPs are specially created for home users that only want to send and receive their mail and occasionally surf the net. Others are for high traffic surfing, downloading and exchanging music, mp3s and videos over the web. Work out how many hours you will probably be on the net for and for what purpose, before looking at the different options.

To name a few of the common ISPs that are available, you can get Dial-up, Broadband, Cable and Satellite. Dial-up is one of the first types of ISP and although it is fairly cheap to use, it is also fairly slow. If you are generally just looking to download your mail in the evenings, this is probably your best choice. Satellite also isnt exactly known for its high-speed performance but is probably the only option for highly rural areas where technology cant provide the others.

Broadband is becoming one of the more common choices as it faster and more efficient then dial-up, without the extra expense of adding a satellite. The only equipment needed for broadband Internet access is a network interface card or Ethernet connection. Today, these components are generally standard when buying your PCs.

ADSL is one of the more common variations of Broadband for home users. It requires various components similar to dial-up, such as a landline, but works at a much higher speed. The pricing is generally between the competitive expenses of broadband and the cheaper option of dial-up. This is due to the user being able to choose how many gigabytes they want for the month. Most ADSL providers offer several e-mail accounts as well.

Companies generally do offer different deals for different types of usage. There are normally ones for business, catering for both small and large, as well as options for the homeowner. Each one offers a different amount of downloading options. Homeowners will more likely use less time on the net then business, but spend more time on weekends.

Check to make sure that the company you choose has a good support system and customer help line. The last situation you want to be in is having a deadline and you cant access the information needed for it because the Internet is down and you are wasting time trying to get through either on the phone, or waiting for their service agent to come round. Check with friends, family and co-workers on their experiences with ISP companies. Dedication and reliability are the most important factors when looking for the right ISP Company for your needs.
