What is web hosting?


If you have a website, which is basically a collection of static or dynamic web pages and you want to make your site data public then you need a server which can store your pages in it, so that these pages can be invoked by users. You can also use your system as a server to host your site on your own computer. But you have some limitations when you host your site on your own computer as follow:
1. You need high speed internet to make your site available on the internet every time or 24x7.
2. If your site is dynamic and store some sort of user information then you need a proper backup for your site, which is costly.
The alternate of the above process is to host your site on the paid or free web hosting companies. There is a list of paid and free hosting companies.
