Web hosting is the technology that puts your website online. It is one of the three essential components of establishing your Web presence: a domain name (Web address), a website and a Web host. Your domain name tells people where to find you, your website is viewed by your visitors, and hosting makes your site part of the Internet. Quite simply, the definition of Web hosting is an online storage service for any content displayed or accessed through your website. Common examples of stored information include images, video, or design templates.

In order to choose a hosting package that will fit your needs, begin by thinking about the goals of your business. The biggest differentiators between hosting packages are the size of disk space, monthly data transfer, number of emailboxes and tools such as open source applications and programming languages. After you determine how you plan to use your site and the amount of traffic you expect on your site, you'll be able to identify which package is best for your business.

If you need more storage, data transfer capability, or multiple file transfer (FTP) accounts, log into your Network Solutions Account (Manager), click on the Web Hosting tab, and then choose the hosting package to which you'd like to upgrade.

One pressing concern for site owners when choosing a new webhost is whether or not their domain will function at the new host. The answer is yes, with a change of the DNS the domain will work with any host.
