Types of Hosting

Virtual Hosting (Shared Hosting)

In most cases you will be using virtual hosting.
Virtual hosting allows you to place your web site in a secure environment on a server that holds multiple sites. This works great for most small businesses and personal web sites, but would not provide the functionality, bandwidth or security required for large e-commerce sites.

Co-location Hosting

An ISP provides a network connection and a physical space to put a server. They provide a locker and high-speed, guaranteed bandwidth, local area network connection. The site owner supplies the personnel to manage the web site software. It is a popular choice for technology companies.

Managed Hosting

At this level of service the ISP will provide the hardware, software and administration services, but not the individual application levels. Managed hosts usually provide a high level of customer service and feedback. It is a popular choice for companies with personnel that are always on hand to trouble shoot and keep the site functioning.Good for sites that are mission critical but do not have extensive technology resources.

Development Hosting

Managed hosting with full application support.

Free Hosting

There are many free host available, but there is always a catch. Usually they offer a small web space that comes complete with lot of pop-up adds on a slow server that's bogged down by traffic. But its free so you really can't complain. If your interested we can design your site and upload it to any free host of your choice. We will also help you learn how to maintain your site.
