Do I Need Hosting?

What is hosting? A hosting account provides a home for your website on web servers, which are stored in a secure, climate controlled environment and are connected to the Internet so that other people on the Internet can view your website. You can look at your website as a front office and Hosting as the back office/ storage centre that houses the information, images, video and other content that comprises your website. Barring technical problems, a web host operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so that anybody in the world can access your web site at any time. Web site hosting is typically measured in the amount of disk space you're given on the server and the amount of data transfer (bandwidth) you need for accessing the server. If you have a lot of customer traffic at your website ie. file downloads, you'll access the server fairly frequently and therefore need more website hosting transfer space than someone who puts only readable text on their web site. The more "items" or "content" you are hosting on your site (ie photos, maps, PDF files etc) the more disk space you'll need for your website and domain hosting.
