A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their own website accessible via the internet. We like to think of it as your PO Box on the World Wide Web! We are not a web hosting company but we have used quite a few. We’ve provided helpful links below to a few of the companies we’ve worked with in the past and recommend. If you don’t feel like taking the drivers seat, we are happy to host as well on our company hosting plan.

A customer needs to evaluate the requirements of the application to choose what kind of hosting to use. Such considerations include database server software, scripting software, and operating system. Most hosting providers provide Linux-based web hosting which offers a wide range of different software. A typical configuration for a Linux server is the LAMP platform: Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP/Perl/Python. The web hosting client may want to have other services, such as email for their business domain, databases or multi-media services for streaming media. A customer may also choose Windows as the hosting platform. The customer still can choose from PHP, Perl, and Python but may also use ASP .Net or Classic ASP. Web hosting packages often include a Web Content Management System, so the end-user does not have to worry about the more technical aspects.
