What is Website Hosting?

A "website" is a collection of computer files that you build using a computer. In order for the world to view your website, those files must be copied or "uploaded" onto a special computer that is connected to the Internet 24 hours a day called a web server.

Basically, every time you go to a website, you connect to another computer (called a server) that sends you copies of that website's pages. Servers have to be powerful, as thousands of people could be asking for those website pages every second on the web's biggest sites.

Web servers are complex, powerful and highly reliable computers that have special high speed connections to the Internet to allow the transfer of files along with special firewall software to protect hackers from accessing your files.

With our website hosting service, you are renting webspace on a server in order to avoid all of the expense and technical aspects of doing it yourself. This is much like looking to rent a home, the larger the home the more the rent is.
