What do you mean by a web
hosting company?
If you want to create a website on the Internet, the first
thing that you need is a Web Server. However, owning a web
server is a very expensive affair; moreover, it needs a huge
amount of technical expertise that most of the businesses
cannot afford. It is in this situation that a web hosting
company or a web host comes in. These companies supply all the
relevant equipments and technical knowledge and skills that
are required. The web hosts thus provide space on a server
(that they own) as well as internet connectivity to their
clients.
Thus utilizing the services of a
web host is much cheaper than owning your personal server and
definitely free from hassles.

The three main reasons why small and medium business
ventures do not attempt to have a website are:
1. The upfront costs are very high.
2. It is extremely expensive to maintain websites.
3. It is assumed that a lot of technical knowledge is required
to maintain websites.
Generally the small businesses have three options when they
want to get a website of their own.
To build the website themselves – this requires good dal of
technical knowledge and time.
Seeking the help of the standard template builders – this is
a good idea, but usually it is noticed that the final product
looks like a template. Very often there are complaints of poor
quality as well as inflexibility as it requires downloading of
software.
Taking help of a professional web designing firm – this will
surely give good results but will turn out to be extremely
expensive.

solution. The firm’s ‘website builder’ provides the
entrepreneurs a template website solution that can help them
to put all that they need under one roof and successfully
