Web hosting is a service that allows individuals or organizations to make their website accessible on the internet. It involves renting space on a server (a powerful computer that stores website files and data) from a hosting provider.

When a website is created, the files and data that make up the website need to be stored on a server so that they can be accessed by internet users. A web hosting provider provides the server space, as well as the necessary tools and services to make the website accessible on the internet. These services may include website building tools, email hosting, domain name registration, and website security features.

Web hosting is the procedure by which a web hosting company stores and keeps up website files and programmes on a server to make its clients' websites reachable on the internet. A domain name system (DNS) is required for name settings and pointing to the hosting provider, as well as one or more physical or virtual servers to act as the web host.

When I hired this WordPress website hosting service, I gained a deeper understanding of web hosting. Web hosting refers to the process of storing and making a website accessible on the internet. It involves renting server space from a hosting provider to store website files, databases, and other content. Web hosting companies offer various types of hosting plans, including shared hosting, VPS hosting, and dedicated hosting, each catering to different needs and budgets. These services provide the necessary infrastructure, security, and technical support to ensure your website is available to visitors 24/7. When choosing a hosting service, it's important to consider factors like reliability, performance, and scalability to support your online presence effectively.

A web hosting provider is said to be hosting a website when they make storage space available on a web server for a website to use in order to keep its data. Web hosting makes the files that make up a website (including the code, graphics, and other components) accessible online for viewing. Every website that you have ever looked at was stored on a server in some way.
