Guided Tour - Web Hosting

Web hosting can be defined as space on a server which is accessible via the internet. Web hosting allows a client to upload files or webpages to a designated space so that they may be viewed or modified. Web hosting has grown much further beyond this simplistic view over the past ten years. Important features such as space, transfer, support and databases have become essential.

A few key Web Hosting terms:

Disk Space: The amount of physical space that you are allocated to put your files on the server. Think of disk space as the exact same concept as how much space you have on your hard drive. We have automated tools for clients to instantaneously check disk space. We do allow clients to exceed the limit for a short period of time. Upon realization of excession we will e-mail the client asking them whether they'd like to pay for extra space or return under the limit.


Transfer (monthly bandwidth): Every time that a webpage or file is accessed on your website, the web server must individually transfer it to the visitor. This transfer is known as bandwidth. We allow clients to transfer phenomenal amounts of bandwidth every month, our basic plans begin at 20 gigabytes per month.


SSL (Secure Socket Layer): Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a cryptographic protocol which provides secure communications on the Internet for such things as web browsing, e-mail, Internet faxing, and other data transfers. SSL allows client/server applications to communicate in a way designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, and message forgery. SSL provides endpoint authentication and communications privacy over the Internet using cryptography. SSL is essential for e-commerce as it guarantees the privacy of a client's information.


Support: As is common throughout small business, support is the manner in which clients can receive service for their product after their initial purchase. Since the internet is a dynamic and inconsistent platform, fast support is essential for a quality product.
