Test Before You Commit (If Possible):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"49:1-49:318\"><span class=\"citation-16 recitation citation-end-16\">Some hosting providers offer trial periods or have a clear refund policy.<\/span> If possible, take advantage of these to test the speed and performance of their servers firsthand before committing to a long-term contract.
