Getting your website started...
All Web Designers and Developers may do things a bit differently but the components of building a website stay the same. Whether you are building a website yourself or hiring a freelancer or company to do it for you, here is a basic list of what you will need to get started. You and/or your designer/developer will thank me later!
What is Web Hosting?
In very simple terms, web hosting is the computer (server) that your website files reside on. When someone visits your domain (url, website address), the web host serves your files to them on the internet 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by maintaining a network of complicated, high-end and expensive servers. A web server (web host) is a must have for every website. This is not an option. Today, there are probably hundreds or even thousands of web hosting packages to choose from, so always make a comparison of the features, rates and quality of service to get the best value for your money.
