Hosting

Hosting is the collection of infrastructure and services that make your website available on the internet. Without a hosting environment, your site is just files sitting on a hard drive. Hosting takes those files and puts them on a web server that is connected, powered on, and ready to answer.

Hosting comes in many shapes, from a shared server you split with other sites, all the way to fully managed cloud arrangements. The option you choose shapes your cost, your performance, and how much of the infrastructure you have to manage yourself.
