Web Hosting Services
What are Web Hosting Services
Web hosting services allow individuals and organizations to make websites accessible
to the world via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server
they own or lease for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity,
typically in a data center. Web hosts may also provide data center space and connectivity
to the Internet for servers that are owned by the website organization. This practice
is called colocation.
Although we do not own nor operate such facilities directly ourselves, we do have agreements with
several web hosting services providers to offer such web hosting services to our clients.
We undertake all necessary tasks associated with operating a website on your behalf. All
you need to do is focus on your business while we do all the technical necessities. We provide
complete management and administrative services for your web hosting services.
The scope of web hosting services varies widely. How much server space is provided, the number of E-mail
addresses allocated under the agreement, the number of databases, the amount of bandwidth, reliability
(of which I say a bit more below) and much more.
What and how much depends on your website requirements. We determine which web hosting services
best suit your needs and then set up your website accordingly.
Like many things in life, price alone, should not be a deciding factor in choosing web hosting services.
Dealing with organizations on the Internet can be quite treacherous. Often the cheapest don't last long
and you could be left stranded high and dry. That can be extremely costly to any online business. So
choose web hosting services wisely. However, with us on your side you needn't worry if you made the
right choice. We help you avoid such disasters.
Reliability
An important point to consider when choosing web hosting services is uptime or reliability.
Hosting uptime refers to the percentage of time the host is accessible via the internet. Many
providers state that they aim for at least 99.9% uptime (roughly equivalent to 45 minutes of
downtime a month, or less). This may or may not include server restarts and planned
maintenance.
This all has to do with the equipment. Making servers more reliable requires redundant equipment
which, of course, adds to the overall cost of operating a data center. A data center with high
reliability will provide web hosting services at higher cost than one without this redundancy. If
reliability is important to you, and it should be, then you should be willing to pay a little extra for it.
In conclusion let me say that we can eliminate all the mystery associated with web hosting
including the maintenance and administrative requirements associated with operating a website.
This frees you to focus on what you do best, operating your online business. For any clarification
or additional information on our web hosting services, please contact me
