What is web hosting?
Domain web hosting is the provision of space on a web server for your website. A web server is a computer that is permanently connected to the internet and delivers your website to the visitor's web browser.
Web servers are typically owned and operated by ISP's (and sometimes large companies). Simply put, web hosting is the rental of space on a web server for your website.
Why would I need Web Hosting?
For your website to be viewable on the internet at an address like: www.yourdomain.com your website needs to be hosted on an ISP's web server.
That is, unless you have the financial and technical resources to maintain your own permanent connection to the internet, and want to run your own web server. Most small to medium sized businesses find it much more cost-effective, and much less technically demanding to host their website and domain at an ISP, like Liztec.
What do I need for Web Hosting?
Step 1: Register your domain
You need to register your domain name with an official domain registrar. If you have some technical expertise, then you can do this yourself. You'd need to visit an official domain registrar's website, fill out the necessary forms, providing them with the addresses of your (or your ISP's) DNS servers and contact information for the appropriate parties (technician, administrator, etc). Or, simply have Liztec register
your domain and take all the work out of it.
Step 2: Choose a hosting provider and hosting package.
You'll need someplace to host your domain, website, and/or email. Whether you're a small business just starting out on the internet, or an established eCommerce business, Liztec offers a range of hosting solutions designed to meet your specific needs. Consider your hosting options with Liztec.
Step 3: Start making the most of your business on the internet.
Get your website built and/or set up your email and you're off and running. Your website and email address are your company's representative to the online world, and it's important to 'dress for success.' Unless you've got a knack for web design, or an in-house web designer, it's best to let a professional web design company build your website. Do-It-Yourself jobs tend to look like DIY jobs; generally not the impression you want to give potential customers visiting your website.
