The Concept of Web Hosting
Saturday, September 26th, 2009A web is the network of computers that can correspond to each other all over the world using a specific communication protocol known as HTTP. The web pages of your work that you own are collectively called your website. If you want to publicize your work, you have to copy the website to a web server that can be either your own PC connected to the network or an Internet Service Provider (ISP). The ISP provides you with web hosting services that enable you to offer your own website on a public server. Those companies which provide their clients with space as well as connectivity on the server are termed as Web hosts.
There is a wide variation in the scope and types of these hosting services. The main points that you must acknowledge while hosting the website on your own server are the quality as well as expenses of the software, hardware and labor.
