All
web hosting is anyway?
In
simple terms, web hosting is renting space on a web server. A website is not
only a domain name, it is a collection of files linked together by HTML code to
display text and graphics on a computer. In order for anyone to see this
collection of files that you have created, it must be housed anywhere on the
computer that has Internet access. Not just any computer will do, of course. A
web server is a computer configured with special software that allows it to
receive requests from the internet for the website files it has stored on it
and to send these files to the internet so that the requesting computer can
display. It is very similar to a waiter in a restaurant taking your order and
bringing the food you ask the kitchen, hence the name "server."
With
ensure that your files can be viewed by Internet users worldwide, a web server
provides other important services. First and foremost is the ability to create
email addresses based on your domain name and send and receive emails with
them. The Web server also has various types of software installed on it that
allow your website to run programs, create and manage databases, display video,
and many other features that you may find useful. Almost any type of computer
can function as a web server, but it is the software that is on making it a
server.
When buying hosting, the monthly fee you pay goes to ongoing maintenance
and upgrading of hardware and server software, the cost of maintaining online
24 hours a day, 7 days a week in a center Secure data with a fast and powerful
internet connection, and pay for the expertise of the people who make all this
work. It is quite possible to turn your own computer at home or office into a
web server if you really want, but in most cases it is much cheaper to pay
someone else dedicated to provide that service in a much more reliably than it
is to try to do it yourself.
