Web Hosting Simplified

By Ambrosio Vega

In a very simple language, we can define Web host as - a web host maintains your website and transfers it to the internet for you. Whenever you require to put a website on the internet, you basically need 3 things

- Domain Name

- Web host account

- Web site

The domain name you specify, points to your web host's server. The server is where your website is physically located. When a person types in your domain name, the computer tries to find the domain record to see where it should go. If successfully found, it then goes to the proper website.

A domain name gives the permanent address of your website on the internet. It's the next part after www in your website address ie. if the website address is www.hithere.com then domain refers to hithere.com.

Choosing a good host - It is important to have an efficient web host; The web host should be reliable first of all and then it should provide great support. Otherwise, you will lose the effort made to set up the whole thing. It might be that the website is never up for the lack of support from your Web Host.

The user is offered a web site to place his or her files, data, documents etc. People can access these through their web browser. There can be an email server also for the user to send and receive email messages. It is the responsibility of the web host to provide user to get an address for people to get to others' web site.
