What is Web Hosting
As peculiar as it may seem to most techies, many people don’t understand what web hosting is. Basically, web hosting is what allows the world to see your website. You can design, code, and place a website on your harddrive where nobody sees it.. or you can spend a few bucks a month and host it on a type of computer known as a Web Server. This allows you to share your masterpiece with the public. A web server sends out, or serves, the files (html/php pages, images, etc.) to the visitors web browser (FireFox, Internet Explorer, Opera, etc.).

Shared Web Hosting $50 yearly

Professional Web Hosting $19.95 monthly

Does it matter which web host you choose?
Choosing your web host is one of the most important decisions you will make regarding your website. Subpar web hosting service can ruin your websites growth, traffic statistics, and mostly importantly, the visitors opinion of your website. Some web hosts promise the moon and can barely get off the ground. These companies are usually oversellers who cram as many websites on each server as possible. Often,  they may not even own the server they’re selling space on. More often than not, this results in extremely poor performance. If the web server your website is hosted on can’t keep up with the load, all the websites hosted on that machine suffer.

Quality Matters

The old saying, “you get what you pay for” is true almost everytime. Web hosting is no exception. Most people new to website hosting opt for the cheapest plan they can find at first. That is, until they actually experience the service! Their site loads slowly, responds sluggishly, and sometimes might not even load or go offline! Making the move to a quality web host is the first step to success for your website. Don’t spend a bunch of money developing your website only to skimp on the web hosting and ruin your visitors site experience. Who cares how cool the flash intro is if it takes 10 minutes to load?
