Web hosting is a service provided by companies known as Web Presence Providers. When a company or individual creates a Web site, the files of the Web site must be on a server with a direct connection to the Internet, Domain Name Service, and many other technical configurations in order for the site to be accessible on the World Wide Web. It is much more cost-effective to rent server space from a Web Presence Provider than to buy your own server computers, T3 connections to the Internet backbones, and hire a technical staff to keep the servers running properly.
