What is Hosting?
Today I am going to discuss what hosting is and how it is used. Hosting is a service that a company provides that allows you to store website and other files on a server that they have and manage. Most websites on the internet use some sort of hosting provider (A company or person that provides hosting) to host their websites files. Hosting, in most cases, involves a monthly or yearly fee for the service. Hosting providers often have different levels of hosting that you can buy. The different levels of hosting are often tied to how well the server performs and how much space the company will allow you to take up on the server. Most hosting providers are using cloud servers now to provide hosting that is faster and more efficient the subsequent side effect is lower cost to you the customer.
