“What is Website Hosting? Why do I need it?”
Website hosting is a big responsibility and we understand that! When a website designer creates websites they are essentially building folder upon folder of information all about you or your business. A website can be created, but that will not make it available on the internet. Therefore, to make it available through the internet, the files that make up your website must be uploaded or copied to a special type of computer called a web server.
Once this is done, your website will be available via the internet. Now, that is what is called web hosting. Those folders need a place to call home and like any home nothing will do but the best. When you pay for website hosting you pay for a secure home to keep your website safe. Simply having a website isn’t enough; website hosting will make your website available on the World Wide Web so that people will be able to view it!
“So what should I look for in website hosting? Where do I find it?”
Good website hosting is easily found by looking for certain features. Basic website hosting is simply housing your files; good website hosting creates a safe home for your web developer to put your website. This doesn’t always include 24/7 backup, software updates, malware protection and firewall. Some will even make you pay more for website hosting if your website is bigger.
