Website Hosting
There are three key parts to consider when hosting a web site-
- Choose a name for your web site which is also called your “domain name.” (Domain)
- Next you must choose the content and placement of the web site. The content will tell your story, provide information or sell your products or services. The compilation of this material is called web development and may be done by an enterprising do-it-yourselfer or sub-contracted to a professional. Once the development is complete, then it’s placed on the worldwide web. A properly placed web site will be accessible from anywhere in the world.
- The third is web hosting.
On this page we are talking about the web site hosting. This space and capability is rented or leased from the provider (us in this case). You can move your web site by changing hosting companies. In that event, you change the DNS servers on your domain to tell people where you have moved your site and where it can be found.
