A Web host is in the business of providing server space, Web services and file maintenance for Web sites controlled by individuals or companies that do not have their own Web servers. Many ISPs, such as America Online, will allow subscribers a small amount of server space to host a personal Web page. Other commercial ISPs will charge the user a fee depending on the complexity of the site being hosted.

When looking for a web host, you’ll often see storage and bandwidth hand in hand.

Web hosting means buying space on a computer to upload the website and points it to the domain name you own it. The computer remains online 24/7 and managed by the hosting company provider on regular basis.

Depending on the type of site I plan the hosting for.
If I wanna host a web-portal with news, a forum and galleries, then I'm gonna go for bandwidth; if I want a simple site, I'll go for lower prices etc.

When you make a website and want other people to see it, you will need to publish (or upload) it with a web hosting service.

Web hosting services work by storing your website files in high-powered computers (web servers) connected to a very fast network. When someone types in your web address (such as www.midphase.com), the Internet connects to the web server holding your website files and then transfers your website information back to their computer. From there they can surf and view the pages of your website.
