What is Web Hosting?


Web Hosting is a service provided to you which allows you to publish your website or blog to internet. A Web Server is a physical computer where you are provided some space where you can store all your files for your website, from where your website can be shown in  any computer over the internet.
In this article we are going to learn Web Hosting Deeply.....

Why do we need a web Hosting?


If we want our website to be available on internet then we need a computer on internet from where our all files for website can be reached. Usually we call those computers as web servers.Without a web server a website can't be live on internet,for this we need a web server.Typically if we use our own computer for web server it would cost us a high. Therefore many companies provide us Web Hosting service which costs us cheaper because they have a large no. on website on their severs which costs them less and we are also provided web server for a less price tag according to use needs with every type of technical support for server.


How a Web Server Works?


A web server is a physical computer that is always running to keep your websites live every time when someone wants to see it. Web server is responsible for transferring all the data of your website such as images,videos,text etc. A web serving company is also responsible to protect your website from malicious attacks and keep your server running.

Working of Web Server


A Web Server is responsible to transfer the files of your website to make it visible on internet and serves the files that is requested by any user. For making your website live on internet you need a domain and web hosting with the website files.

Let us understand working of a web server with help of a house.
Suppose, the internet works like a structure of street with your domain acting as address for your 
house and web server is the land on which your house is built and is seen by any person who is coming to your address. On internet if any person wish to see your website then he need to come to your domain address and then web server provides him the website which he see on his computer.
