Try doing a Web search for its name plus “opinions” or “reviews” to read about other customers’ experiences. A hosting company with lousy customer service or a poor track record for uptime isn’t what you want regardless of its Mac bona fides.
Of course, enthusiasm about the Mac doesn’t guarantee a good experience. In lieu of an obvious welcome mat, visit the company’s support page and do a quick search for “Mac.” Are there more than a few hits? That’s a good sign. If you visit a provider’s website and see words like “Mac” and “iCloud” on the homepage‚ or better yet, read a story about how everyone in the company uses a Mac‚ you can feel confident that the company has a clue about the Mac OS. A Web search on “Mac friendly Web hosting” turns up enough matches to make your head spin, but the definition of “Mac-friendly” seems to run the gamut from “We run all our Web servers on Macs” to “One of our techs once touched a Mac.”
However, if you’re a less-sophisticated Mac user, you may feel most comfortable picking a company that understands your specific needs and makes you feel at home.
