What is web hosting?
Website hosting is a service that enables individuals and organisations to make their websites accessible on the internet. It involves renting space on a server, which stores website files and delivers them to visitors’ browsers when they enter the website’s domain name. To put it simply website hosting is the server that stores all the files, data, and content that make up a website.
What is a domain?
A domain name is like your home address on the internet. It’s what people type into their web browsers to find your website. A domain is a unique web address (like www.google.com) that identifies resources on the internet. Instead of remembering a long string of numbers (like an IP address), you have a user-friendly name that’s easy to remember. They’re registered through domain registrars for a specified period, typically annually.
How to register a domain?
1. Choose a Domain Name: Decide on a name that reflects your brand or purpose.
2. Check Availability: Use a domain registrar’s search tool to see if your desired domain name is available.
3. Select a Registrar: Choose a reputable domain registrar like GoDaddy, Namecheap, or Bluehost.
4. Add to Cart: Once you find an available domain, add it to your shopping cart.
5. Review and Pay: Review your order, provide your contact information, and complete the purchase.
6. Optional: Privacy Protection: Consider adding domain privacy to keep your contact information private.
7. Verify Ownership: Follow any confirmation steps provided by the registrar.
8. Set Up: Use your domain for a website or set up email addresses associated with it.
What is DNS?
DNS, or Domain Name System, is like the phone book of the internet. When you type a web address into your browser, your computer needs to know the corresponding IP address to connect to that website.
What is an A-Record?
An ‘A-Record’ refers to a specific type of information stored in the DNS database associated with a domain name. A-Record associates a domain name with an IPv4 address, allowing web browsers to find the correct server on the internet.
How much is website hosting?
Website hosting costs can vary from company to company with service levels being the main differentiator. There are certainly cheaper impersonal websites hosting companies around – and that’s fine if you know what you are doing and are happy to work with chat assistants and helpdesk tickets if you have a problem. However we offer in person support during office hours with a reliable server team working behind the scenes 24 hours a day / 7 days a week / 365 days a year.
Our basic server hosting packages start at £290 per year which is billed annually. This includes daily backups, unlimited bandwidth (which is monitored internally) and up to 10GB server storage as well as a free AutoSSL certificate to keep your website secure.
If you need more storage then we offer a extra 10GB bolt ons for £35 per year.
