What is Web Hosting?
If you view your website as a destination, it makes more sense that it needs an actual location and address. That is exactly what web hosting does – it gives your website the means to be displayed and a way for people to find it.
A domain name is your website’s address and it points to a hosting server. These servers are kept under lock and key in a high security building, called a data centre.
Shared hosting is by far the most popular website hosting system.
We use cPanel as our hosting platform. It’s very popular, and for good reason. Not only because is it efficient and easy to use, but also because it’s bursting with great features:
- File Manager – Simply organise and effortlessly manage your website files
- Email Accounts – Create and manage your email accounts
- Jet Backup – Weekly or monthly local or cloud backups
- Databases – Needed for CMS systems like WordPress
- Metrics – Monitor your website’s performance
- Installer – Easily install popular platforms like WordPress
Your Hosting Options
Give your website a home – its own parking space, in a way. A central place from where you can manage your email accounts, and make sure your site is perfectly positioned to engage your visitors.
It involves taking a bunch of servers, then dividing up the resources like CPU, RAM, and disc space, etc, and sharing it between clients. It is more cost effective, but just as safe and effective as having a server all to yourself.
- Share the cost of dedicated server.
- Share the power of a dedicated server.
- Easier to manage for both admins and developers.
- Easier to transfer your hosting to another company.
- No expert skills required to get started.
- No contract with easy monthly billing.
Reseller hosting works the same way as shared hosting, in a way… Except, if you become a reseller, you are in effect the landlord of the “commune” where other clients come to park their websites.
This is ideal for website designers, website developers, and online agencies that already know the basics and would like to diversify and make a profit from selling hosting services to others.
- Resell website hosting plans to your clients.
- Save on costs; pay just one monthly fee.
- Ideal for website designers.
- No added skills required for website designers.
We Love To Chat
Our team has the answers to all those web-related questions you are asking in your head.
Think of your website as an exciting destination you want as many people as possible to visit. For visitors to find your website, they need an address, though. And that is exactly what your domain is – the “address” visitors can type into a browser (like Google, for example) in order to find your website.
A hosting service provides the means for your website to be displayed on the internet. Your website files “live” on a server and the space on the server is rented to you by a host – much like a host at a hotel renting you a room. Instead of trying to acquire space on a server yourself (which is tricky if you’re not a web developer), a web hosting service acts as a third-party intermediary. This makes the process very simple and effortless for the website owner.
The process has been made super simple to ensure that it’s easy enough for non-web professionals to master. First you need to disable the registrar lock and get an authorisation code. From there your new web host will log in and complete the transfer – the process usually takes about 5-7 days. Come host your site with us. Our tech team is standing by to help you with this process. Get in touch right now!
Your website files need to be transferred to their new home – everything from your databases to your email accounts. The web application you use (think WordPress, etc.) needs to be installed and configured at your new web host. But you do not have to go through the process alone. We can help – just let us know what you need and we’ll be there every step of the way.
A .co.za domain name is associated with South African websites and businesses. A .com domain name can be both local to South Africa and global. If you products and services are just for the South African market, then look for a .co.za first. If you would like to gain an international audience then focus on getting a .com. However, if both are available then get both! You would be surprised how many people type the wrong TLD in by mistake.
