Web Hosting is the server used to connect you to the internet.
There are 2 main types of Web Hosting. Shared Hosting and Dedicated Hosting. Shared hosting is when one server contains a lot of different websites. This is a slightly cheaper option when it comes to hosting. However, it will increase your chances of having buffing on your website due to a lot of people excessing the server at the same time. As you may be aware if you doing a campaign on Facebook at the same time as a few of your other colleges you may find that it runs slowly and takes longer to complete and publish the campaign. This is because multiple people will be accessing the server at the same time, therefore, making the internet signal weaker as it is being shared.
Most companies tend to outsource their web hosting through different companies. These companies are in charge of physically hosting different servers. Whether you are on a Shared Hosting server or a Dedicated Hosting server.
You can also come across sites that offer a managed web hosting service. This is something Wiser Websites offer. This means when you ask us to host you will not only host your server but will manage the server. This means we will do all the updates for you and make sure you have good access to the server and internet at all times. If you go for a standard web hosting site, it is your responsibility to ensure your server is kept up to date.
