In this Episode: Where the Web Hosting Industry is Going

So what were the web hosting trends for 2022? Are we continuing to see unprecedented growth in ecommerce? Or are consumers once again heading out to brick and mortar stores for their purchases. 

What can providers do to help SMBs get back into the swing of in-person commerce, and how can they stay ahead of the curve in the ever-changing online landscape? We look at everything from usage trends, to working remotely, to environmental impact. 

Key Takeaways

  • The hosting industry continued to see growth in 2022, but it has slowed down. This makes sense as the market begins to saturate a little.
  • That said, things are not going back to the way they were before. More people have gotten used to using eCommerce from a convenience and comfort standpoint, and we can’t take that away from them now.
  • Growth is still happening because there are still businesses realizing the customers aren’t coming back and they need to act.
  • The truth is even if you don’t provide curb-side pickup anymore, You still need some kind of web presence to survive in today’s market.
  • As ARM processors become more prevalent, servers will use less energy and should become more affordable for services providers and users alike. 
  • As a result of ARM processors becoming more popular, Intel is working hard to make their chips more energy efficient.
  • This will accelerate another growing trend with availability. Soon, we’ll be as close to 100% up time as humanly possible with all servers being managed remotely and having fallbacks. 
  • Speaking of remote work, most services provides are doing all of their work remotely now. This was another trend that accelerated during the pandemic and is here to stay.
  • How is WebPros keeping up with all of this? They continue to improve their infrastructure, but they also added a lot to their product offering for 24/7 monitoring and logging, as well as full site checks, SEO, and much more.
