A particular website may find a certain web hosting service ideal. However, the same thing may not be true for other websites given that the websites would have different needs. Comparing the feasibility of web host providers is akin to comparing an apple with an orange. It would be pretty hard to discern the inferior web host from the commendable ones for the reason that mediocre web hosting companies would naturally cover up their short comings with a lot of freebies.

However, a discerning webmaster will be able to weed out mediocre web hosts by using four basic qualities that will assess the worthiness of a web host site. The first is experience. A good web hosting site with years of experience can deal with any difficulties that can arise be it on your part or on their part. Years of experience will mean that they have encountered many glitches before and they would know how to resolve the problem.

Before signing in with a web hosting company you have to be sure they can give you adequate support in the form of tutorials. Designing your website would not necessitate a web designer as the video clips and informative articles they will provide would be enough to guide you.

Be sure to choose a web hosting service that would provide you with significant features that you can implement yourself using their tutorials. An ecommerce website would certainly use shopping carts, inventory and payment software. These features are provided for by most web hosting services but be sure that these features are easy to handle.

Join forums and discussions that will enable you to choose the web host site that will give you service and features commensurate to the investment you have made. Choosing the best web host site, even one that will entail investing a considerable sum of money would be beneficial in the long run if the chosen site will contribute to the development and growth of the online business.

Just going to show that they don't release new versions for nothing, Microsoft SharePoint Services version 3.0 is loaded with many features that were unavailable in version 2.0. One of which, is the all mighty Recycle Bin.

Now, even though it is believed that the Recycle Bin is a standard feature on all software, it hasn't always been that way. In version 2.0 of SharePoint Services the Recycle Bin was absent, meaning that if you removed an item from the Portal, it was gone, and the only way to get it back was to have your SharePoint host restore the whole site from backups if you didn't have another local copy to upload. It was kind of dangerous when it came to removing files.

The Recycle Bin is set up for two stages, the first stage is the first time the document or image or list item is deleted by a user and put on "hold." In this stage the deleted document can still be retrieved but only by the user that made the deletion. The second stage is called the Site Collection Recycle, where only site Administrators can access its contents.

To access your Recycle Bin contents, here's what you need to do:

In your site, click on Site Actions then Site Settings.
On the Site Settings page, under "Site Collection Administration" click on Recycle Bin

With SharePoint Services 3.0 you have some setup options with the Recycle Bin, including how long each stage of the Recycle Bin will hold content as well as space quotas for the second stage. The space quota setting is important, because if you are in a shared hosting environment, content within your Recycle Bin will count and eat up disk space.

Dedicated hosting Administrators have access to all the settings, to be able to adjust content hold time as well as space quotas. If you're in a shared SharePoint hosting environment, talk to your service provider about creating custom settings, if their default settings do not work for you. In the case of my hosted SharePoint site, both stages of my Recycle Bin are held for 30 days, and I contacted my service provider to have my space quota on my second stage be no more than 50%. (I'll admit I'm a bit of a worry-wart for losing precious documents.)

Either way you look at it, the Recycle Bin is a fantastic feature, and a great safety net for saving documents.
