What Exactly
Is Web Hosting?
If you are a business, information provider, directory
of resources or just want to share data - personal
or otherwise on the internet, this needs to be
contained in one accessable place. You need a
web site and own a place in cyberspace to keep
it.
Web hosting grew
out of the need to supply the internet users with
the ability to own (or rent) an area of cyberspace,
without costing them a fortune to do so. Web Hosts
created great areas (almost like plots of land)
which they could then split into smaller pieces
and let their users share them.
The web host gives
you an area to place all your files, and data,
an email server so you can send and receive emails.
They also give you an address (domain name - url)
so that people can find your web address in their
browser and send you emails at the address as
well.
For your part you
beome a member or tenant of thye web hosting company
you go with and agree to their terms and conditions.
It is exactly the same principle as if you were
renting a flat or house.
