What is Web hosting?
Web hosting is the technology that puts your website online. It is one of the
three essential components of establishing your Web presence: a domain
name (Web address), a website and a Web host. Your domain name tells
people where to find you, your website is viewed by your visitors, and hosting
makes your site part of the Internet. Quite simply, the definition of Web hosting
is an online storage service for any content displayed or accessed through
your website. Common examples of stored information include images, video,
or design templates.
