Understand what you need
Write a list of what you will be using the internet for. Choosing a provider which offers tiered usage brackets for business broadband packages will mean that you’re not paying for more than you actually need and you will reduce your businesses waste spending.
Consider issues such as how many people will be using the internet, whether remote access is required, whether you will host your own website and whether a lot of fast uploading will be required.
Downtime
For many businesses, any internet downtime whatsoever could have severe consequences. Think carefully about your needs. There are business broadband package options available for if your business can not tolerate any downtime at all.
Even if you are a homeworker and a few hours offline would be more irritating than disastrous, a secondary option can help with peace of mind and productivity.
Support
