Website hosting is more than finding the right place to store your web pages. It's also about selecting the right domain name and registration company, knowing where to host your images and videos and finding a reliable provider with near-perfect server uptime. Website hosting is all this -- and much, much more!

Types of Website Hosting

There are many kinds of website hosting services available including:

  • Free: Usually comes as part of a paid domain registration package; services are usually limited
  • Shared: Most economical and common form of hosting; one server is host to many websites and everyone shares in the cost of maintaining it
  • Reseller: Account holder purchases bandwidth and drive space and resells it to third party users
  • Clustered: Similar to shared hosting but with less inherent problems; security, load balancing and resources are clustered together, therefore allowing a website to not be limited to only one server.

About Domain Names

Besides website hosting, you will also find information on domain registration including:

  • Where and how buy domain names
  • Finding free domain names and registration
  • How to buy a parked domain name
  • Searching for domains that are for sale
  • Understanding and choosing a Top Level Domain
  • Private registration
  • DNS transfers
