What is web and email hosting?

Web hosting is the server space that a provider sells to house your website on the web. The web hosts as they are called offer you space, tools and other resources to make sure your business gets the maximum exposure across to reach your target audience. Once you have registered your domain name, you need space on the internet to display your services to the public. The hosts also aid in getting your business domain name if you haven’t registered one yet. When a visitor types your domain name on their web browsers, they will be directed to your web server and your website pages, which they requested for, are displayed on their devices.

In addition to space, the web hosts provide other resources like bandwidth, memory, email services. You may choose to host your site, such as dedicated server, shared hosting or VPS hosting, depending on the traffic to your website and your budget. Email hosting can be one of the services provided by a web hosting company but the contrary may not be always possible.

Email hosting is a server space where your emails are stored. Email hosting manages the customer’s domain name and provides for its maintenance and security using different types of security tools and offers 24/7 support.
