Website hosting is a necessity for anyone that has a website.

How does hosting work? Basically, your website will be stored on a server, and as customers pull up your website (by your domain name), the content will be transferred from that server to your customers computer screen for display. This requires fast processors, a great deal of bandwidth (think of bandwidth like water going through a hose, the bigger the hose, the more water that goes through), security features, information/data backups, operating systems designed for delivering web pages and more.

Your hosting fees cover all of these things for you. Trust us when we say it can be very time consuming and frustrating maintaining yourown web server, especially if you have no prior experience.
