If you are new online or just starting your web business on the World Wide Web it may not be quite clear for you what web hosting is and why you may need it.

Today all web users, including you, are getting online to go over to Google and search for something of interest to them. Searching the Internet they find hundreds if not thousands of web sites with their interest. But have you ever thought how any of these web sites are able to reach the internet and appear in the search results of Google? They need to be placed somewhere that computers of all web users in the world can reach them. Let us clarify the web hosting server.

Maybe you are also one of many beginners in the internet who think that after creating a web site they just need to hold it on their home PC to reach all people over the world. But it is not what you think. How can your web site reach all web users from any country of the world if your computer is not able to connect with theirs?

To make your web site available for the whole world, like the others that appear on Google when searching, you should put it on a web server connected to the Internet. The web server is an online place connected to the main internet network and where by holding your web site you can make it available for all internet users. But where can you get such a web server? Hosting companies offer these servers. Let me give simpler explanation to the notion of “web hosting”: For a moment imagine that internet is a huge area and a lot of sections of it is available for rent. So you rent one of those spaces to hold your site in. In other words, web host is your online office. Now you understand that without hosting you cannot make your domain name and web page viewable for internet users.

So you have to fulfil the following three steps so that your web site can reach all web users in the world when they type your web site’s address (that is domain name) in their web browser’s address: 1) Buy a domain name. 2) Design your web site. 3) Buy Web Hosting service to associate the domain name to the web site you designed, and make it available over the internet.

When using web host service you can choose professional or just free one. It depends on you and your web site’s goal. Many web servers have multiple control panels. cPanel and Plesk are the more popular control panels to use. Both make it easy to manage your web hosting account. By purchasing managed services, you don’t have to worry about maintaining or updating the server. We can look after this for you on a regular basis and is included with the yearly cost.
