What is web hosting?
A domain name and a web host are two components of every website you visit. Consider the domain name as the address and the host as the actual structure.
When you’re browsing the web and you type in a URL (i.e. https://www.testing.com), your web browser queries that domain name (i.e. testing.com) and asks it where the website is hosted. The browser then loads up the contents that are stored there.
Hosting is the practice of using a server to host a website, and there are many different kinds of hosted environments available. We, like most web host providers, offer a variety of options so that clients may pay only for the resources they require. The more popular a website is, the more resources it will require to work properly.
The good thing is that you may expand your plan as and when you need it, so you can start with a Single plan and subsequently upgrade to a Business or even a VPS plan.
How does a web host service work?
Your website is essentially a group of files and (in most instances) databases that are provided to your users as they navigate it. We will provide you with room to keep your website and database.
When you sign up, you’ll receive login details to access your account’s admin panel.

We provide a custom-built control panel. You may manage your account, check resource usage, generate email addresses and install content management systems (CMSs), such as WordPress, using our control panel. This is different from the website's admin panel, which will be built when you install a CMS. This is the control panel for your entire hosting server.
Are there different types of hosting services?
Yes! Web hosting comes in a variety of sizes and forms, with different configurations appropriate for various types of website owners. In general, the categories are:
Shared:?This is generally the most affordable type of website host because it uses the least amount of hardware. It refers to the hosting of several separate websites on the same server, with each user receiving a set amount of storage space and resources. For beginners and bloggers, this is frequently the best solution.
VPS:?A Virtual Private Server configuration is similar to a shared configuration but on steroids. It often employs more powerful hardware and derives its name from the fact that, while numerous websites are kept on the same physical hardware, each use virtualization software to allow them to run independently as if they were separate mini-servers.
Dedicated:?This is an excellent option for professionals, and it entails the usage of a server devoted to a single website, as the name implies. In other words, unlike shared and VPS plans, the user does not have to share storage space or resources with other users and has their physical hardware.
Cloud:?Webmasters use cloud hosting to access a big bank of servers that are all interconnected and intended to take over from one another if necessary. In other words, if you require additional resources, the cloud will offer additional resources to meet the demand. If you want to aim for 100 percent uptime and don't care how much you have to spend for it, this is typically the best option.
We offer a combination of shared and cloud hosting. This configuration enables us to deliver fast website host with almost 100% uptime at an amazing price.
