What is Web Hosting, and Why Do You Need It?

What is Web Hosting, and Why Do You Need It?

Starting a website is one of the best steps you can take to grow your business or share your passion with the world. But for your website to be accessible to everyone online, it needs two essential elements: a domain name and web hosting. Let’s dive into what these mean and why Web Register Limited is your go-to solution for both.

What is Web Hosting?

Web hosting is a service that allows your website to be accessible on the internet. Think of it as renting space on a server—a powerful computer that stores your website’s files, images, videos, and other content. When someone types your domain name (e.g., ), their browser retrieves these files from the server, and your website is displayed.

Why is Web Hosting Necessary?

1. Visibility: Without web hosting, your website cannot be seen online. Hosting ensures your site is available 24/7 to visitors worldwide.
2. Storage: A reliable host stores all your website’s data securely, ensuring it’s safe and always ready to load.
3. Performance: High-quality web hosting ensures fast loading speeds, essential for user satisfaction and search engine ranking.
4. Scalability: As your business grows, hosting allows you to scale up your resources to accommodate increased traffic.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is your website’s unique address on the internet, such as www.webregister.co.ke. It’s how users find you online, making it the first impression of your brand.

Your domain and hosting work hand in hand:

• The domain name is like your street address, telling people where to find you.
• The hosting is the actual house where your content lives.
