Overselling is a business policy used in many industries today to create a situation, where a company provides a service which they know that they will be unsustainable to provide, if every customer uses the service up to the full extent that is advertised for the service. Overselling in Web Hosting industry is generally referred to the overselling of web space and allowed bandwidth usage.

In the web hosting industry, overselling describes the situation, which appears when the company oversells its services. For example, if the web host has a bandwidth of 20,000 GB allowed per month but the host sells 100 hosting packages with 1,000 GB allowed bandwidth per month for data transfer, then the web host is overselling its services. Since the sales they made totals to 100,0000 GB of monthly bandwidth which the company don’t bear itself and thus can’t provide if every user uses it up to the full extend. For sure, the web hosts hope that the customers will not be using the total bandwidth offered.

But if your web host doesn’t calculate this overselling process then either the web host will need to pay the overage cost or they will have to go into debt. This results in suspension of their service offerings and accidentally your website goes offline. The ultimate end can go wrong up to that situation when your web host goes out of the business along with your pre-payment of one year service offering.
So from now whenever you are going after a web host you should look after some things and keep them in mind while judging its reliability:
1.    You should get exactly what you are paying for. This means you are not getting less than other hosts, as well as not much much more than others.
2.    Multiple support options should be provided by the web hosts.
3.    Know well about the web host and find out since when the company is in this business.
4.    The web hosts own site is a remarkable factor which should be noticed well to find out how it is performing. If the hosts’ own sites go slow or often goes offline, then its a pure indication that your site will also go down many times.

Overselling is a kind of marketing strategy which companies are bound to do for profit. From the previous example you can get that not all sites will be able to use up 1,000 GB of monthly data transfer bandwidth. So if the web host provides its servers keeping the advertised bandwidth for everyone, then the company will waste their bandwidth and will need unnecessary number of servers to meet the number of customers.

Overselling is also done in several industries to prevent the loss due to cancellation by customers at the last moments before the selling closes. This helps the service providers to use their service providing capacity almost up to the extend as much as they can offer. Non-Overselling service providers many times suffers loss due to unavailability of sufficient customers with respect to their capability. This problem is somewhat solved through this technique of service overselling. Thus, when utilized in a properly estimated process, Overselling in web hosting industry can be profitable to the web hosts as well as non-annoying to its customers.

Consumers now can easily choose among thousands of products offered by thousands of stores around the world, which adds to the value of choice and quality. According to study reports, United Kingdom online shoppers spend about 17 pence online on every pound.

According to the e-commerce group IMRG and consultancy of Capgemini, the total amount spent on Internet was £26.5bn which is 38% more than that of the last year.  The clothes and footwear industries were found to be the biggest losers among the physical stores in the month of June and had sales either flat or lower than that of the last year. Online stores were the big winners, said James Roper, chief executive at IMRG.  The rising prices of food and fuel and the credit crunch, forced customers to seek out some other options of compensation. It has now been calculated that the online sales have already reached about 20% of the total retail sales. Online shopping through cyberspace has now became much more popular than physical retail shopping as consumers are now more cautious about what they spend and what hassles they undergo.

According to Mike Petevinos, Capgemini UK, “Convenience has a sharper edge in a world of soaring fuel prices”. The research study found that online clothing sales rose about 32%, lingerie sales rose about 37% and the footwear sales rose up to 38%. In total, as per the report, about £1.76bn was spent online on clothing in the first 6 months of 2008. The online clothing sales had a record amount spent during the March. People are now more getting addicted to convenience and usability of the features which are provided by the online stores. Everyone loves to shop while resting the bed in the air conditioned room.

As Mr. Gartner reported previously that Apple has now became the fastest growing computer manufacturer in the US and its sales has grown up to 38%. Apple now has 8.5% of the US market. It has been seen a great indentation towards the online market, both in hardware and software. People are gradually creating an immense interest on the Internet and its convenient features, which are becoming more interactive and works just out of the box.

The online shopping trend has shown IT and electronic goods to be the most popular products among the customers, which is closely followed by books and clothing. The online shopping trend has now became an unavoidable part of the UK and US retail. The total online retail spend in the year of 2007 worth £14.7bn which is up by 35% from previous year.

Another contributing factor for the increase in online shopping is the increase in number of Internet users to 33.1 million and the increase of online shoppers by 24.7% to 22.6m. Another trend that came out among the online shoppers, which helped the increase in online shopping is that the online customers are much more regular in purchasing (an average of 16.9 times a year) and don’t hesitate to buy products sometimes beyond their financial capacity, availing their credit cards. So the world is going to see much more economic and social effects of the dotcom industries.
