What is Web Hosting?
The files that make up your website live on a computer. Fundamentally, the same kind of computer you have at home. It’s primary purpose; however, is to serve web pages 24 hours per day. A server. Your desktop at home is geared toward productivity and web browsing. A personal computer. Your teenager’s desktop is geared toward watching videos and playing 3D games. A gaming computer.
Unlike these other configurations, a server is basically a computer that is geared toward the longest possible uptime, using the most economical and reliable hardware components, with as many users as possible, and with the highest-speed Internet access possible. Typically, in the data centers where these computers are stored, the hosting provider has also provided proper air conditioning, battery backups, 24-hour administration, and 24-hour security.
