Web Hosting
Once your website has been completed the site must be placed on a web "Server" (a host computer which is permanently connected to the Internet). This means your site can be accessed anywhere around the world at any time. Web servers are typically provided and maintained by companies who specialize in providing web hosting services.
While web pages are designed and developed on a single computer, they must be transferred to a server, or host, so that they are available to the rest of the world over the Internet. A host is simply a computer that has a constant, high speed connection to the Internet. Hosting companies rent space on these machines. Depending on your needs, a hosting plan can cost anywhere between £5 and £30 per month.
When selecting somewhere to host your web site there are a number of things that must be considered. If the site is static in design using HTML, CSS, Javascript, CGI it is likely that a basic level low cost service could be used. If however the site is dynamic in design it is likely the hosting company will need to provide support for PHP, MySQL or equivalent at an additional cost.
As part of our service webAlyzer will design and build web sites and allow client testing on its own web servers. Once the client is happy with their web design webAlyzer will help find the right hosting solution. WebAlyzer can also offer hosting services if requested for a reasonable monthly charge.
