What is Web Hosting?

In simple terms, web hosting is the computer (server) on which your website files reside. When someone visits your domain (URL, website address), the web host serves your files to them on the internet 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by maintaining a network of complicated, high-end, and expensive servers. A webserver (web host) is not a luxury; it's a necessity for every website. Today, there are hundreds or even thousands of web hosting packages to choose from, so always compare the features, rates, and quality of service to get the best value for your money.
