Web hosting is the storage space you need to save the files of your website (photos, videos, text, code, etc.), so they can be accessible on the Internet. Some compare web hosting to the land that a house is built on; with shared hosting, your service provider (i.e., the web host) sells or leases you space (land) on a server, where your web files (home/website) will be stored. Web hosts will expect you to own a domain that can be associated with your hosting services, and, if needed, they may help you purchase a domain.
Once you purchase a web hosting plan, we store your site on our servers and assign it a unique DNS. The DNS is the address that allows people around the world to access your website. This unique address is required for people to view your site.
By purchasing a (shared hosting) website hosting package as shown on this page, you’re buying space on our servers. It’s like the space on the hard drive of a computer, and it being on our servers makes your website files accessible from anywhere.
