What is Hosting?
Web Hosting is a vital part of your online success. The right plan not only ensures that you have enough storage space and bandwidth for your website and visitors; it can also improve the speed of your site and make it more stable when your traffic spikes. Since there are hundreds of companies who will host your website, it can be hard to choose one that's reliable, affordable, secure and still offers the features you need, such as Windows hosting. Fortunately, iHost Technologies has gone above and beyond in creating our world-class web hosting plans.
If you're new to launching a website, hosting may be a bit of a mystery. To put it simply, web hosting is space on a server, not unlike the space on your computer's hard drive, which stores the files that make up your website. Once you upload the files for your website, the server then makes them available to visitors around the world. You can access, update or replace the files on your server at any time to keep your website up to date.
Most web hosting companies offer what's called shared hosting plans, which means that several websites are hosted on the same server. This format works most of the time, but with some companies that use older technology, sites can experience slow load times and even crashes when there's a huge traffic spike. However, we've developed our own 4th Generation Hosting (4GH)®plans to overcome these issues. Our 4GH hosting plans scale as your traffic grows, ensuring that your site remains fast and reliable, especially when you need it most – during traffic spikes.
So whether you're new to the Web and not sure what you need or you know exactly what you're looking for, iHost Technologies web hosting offers an affordable solution to fit your website.
