What is a web hosting?

- A ‘host’ is a technical term for a computer that is permanently connected to the internet and it is often referred to as a ’server’ too. A web hosting is in effect rented the space on a server and storing your website files on that server and allows your website to be seen publicly on the World Wide Web with possible of no downtime 24/7 a year. After you have purchased your domain name, you will need a web hosting to display your website on the internet.

A standard email service will be provided in the web hosting package. When someone sends an email to your domain, it will deal by the email server. The email server is taking delivery of the email and then stores it in a mailbox for you until you download it and deal with it.

Besides supplying disk space for emails storing files, the web server must also equipped with programming script-enabled environment, which varies depending on programming languages needed to extend the website functional features. It is an engine, which translates different kinds of computer programming languages into human usable features or web system.

The biggest gap between web hosting prices was due to script-enabled environment, disk space, monthly bandwidth limit, server stability and the number of persons using the same hosting server. A big server does not equal to server stability because it may has tonnes of sharing users on that server.
