Web hosting is a kind of online service that enables the hosting of one or more web pages, either as a site forum, blog, database, e-commerce, e-mail-system, or any other kind of content. The web hosting server serves as the platform in which all the pages are hosted.

 

As soon as a website is put up, it becomes a new webpage and can be referred to by a URL. The URL or the Web address is the part of the URL where webmasters can direct visitors to the website.

 

Web hosting is similar to a file hosting, which is the storage of a hard drive on the internet to store files for distribution over the internet. Since there is one single URL, there is only one address or a single web address. The web hosting service provides the means to connect to the site.

 

There are two kinds of web hosting. On-premise hosting, where web pages are hosted on their own private server, and managed dedicated hosting where a single server is dedicated to the web hosting and all the data is backed up in the same location.

 

The number of hosting services that are available in the market has become a matter of concern. Now, you have to pick the best option to accommodate your website's needs. It is a bit of a difficult task because every web hosting service has its own features.

 

You should opt for the host that will provide you a dedicated IP address. This address should be allocated only for your website. It is really important to get this address because this address is what will identify your website when you are in search engine.

 

Of the many web hosting services, the free hosting is the most recommended among the free hosting services. Most of the free hosting services only allows you to use one domain name. So, if you have multiple domains, this type of web hosting service may not work for you.

 

If you wish to have a free web hosting service, you have to register with a hosting provider. Once you are done with the registration, you can host your website anywhere you like and this is not an issue for the web hosting service provider.

 

The easiest and the simple way to host your website is to get a VPS (virtual private server). However, VPS also provides extra cost to the user. If you are into content management, you can choose a dedicated server.

 

The cost of this service may vary depending on the host provider. The cost of this service depends on the bandwidth and the disk space that is allocated to the host.

 

You may have a wide range of hosting packages depending on your requirements. The feature of auto update, automatic security updates, and multiple domain support are some of the features that a web hosting service provides. Thus, you have to ensure that the host service offers these facilities.

 

Therefore, a web hosting service is important to have. The web hosting service provider should offer all the above features so that they can maintain their reputation and good customer service.
