What is Web Hosting?

Web Hosting is the term for the physical home of a web site, where the files are placed so that they are accessible to anyone across the globe over the Internet. If you think of your website in terms of where you live, your home is your website, your domain name is your postal address and web hosting is the foundations of your house.

Different hosting companies offer varying levels of services ranging for a basic beginner's site up to a seasoned professional. The web hosting plan you need depends on the amount of space, traffic (known as bandwidth) and the purpose of your site.
