Web Hosting

24 March 2008, by Heavens Paradox

If you want to own/run your own website on the online world there are two things you need to have. The first is a domain name, something like www.xyz.com. These usually cost around $9 per year, but vary on the extension you get, ie .com, .net, .co.uk

Then there is the way in which yoiu keep the website up/available to be viewed by your visitors. This is known as web hosting. This is where you store all your sites files so that people can see your web pages.

Basically every web host company will give you a limit on things such as bandwith and file size. So the more bandwith and file size you want, the more you will have to pay. Some companies charge around $5 per month for a package that includes for example, 50GB bandwith and 5GB file size.

When it comes to choosing the best web hosting you need to look at the package you get rather than the price. Because you will will always wnat your website to be available to visitors you want a company that are reliable and won’t be ‘down’ all the time.

So look for a better package and pay that little bit more to get a better web host.
