What is a hosting server?
A hosting server is a service that allows you to store your website on the Internet and makes it accessible to users from their computers or mobile devices. What we commonly know as web pages are hosted on one of these hosting servers, either shared or dedicated.
Buying a hosting server is very similar to renting a space to set up your business. A place where your customers can see you, visit you, keep up to date with your news and even buy your products or services. As your business grows, just as businesses expand and open more locations, if you started by renting a shared server, you can improve your website by getting more access to the server and even renting the entire server.
What is a hosting server used for?
Nowadays, renting a server is one of the best ways to give your business the boost it needs. With an Internet presence, you can not only reach customers that you would not have otherwise reached, but you can also reach out to them with promotions, special discounts and valuable information. All this thanks to server hosting.
One essential thing you need before contracting a server hosting service is to have a clear idea of the domain name. That is, the name of your business or the name by which you want your customers to know you. It is the name that users will type into the search engine when they want to find you.
