In today’s society, with the Internet reaching almost every home and business, the number of people wanting to have a Website is dramtically increasing. The questions is - How do I get my site on the Internet? The answer is Web Hosting. Web Hosting by definition is a service that allows individuals and organisations to publish their website via the World Wide Web. There are many differnet types of Web Hosting, all with unique features and specifications. Shared Hosting is where your site resides on a section of a server that is conected to the Internet. This type of Hosting is most common amongst indivduals and Small to Medium Businesses (SME).

Virtual Private Servers (VPS) are partinitoned areas of a Dedicated Server that have similar capabilities as a Dedicated Server without the cost. This type of Hosting is more common for larger, more complex sites or where the customer needs a particular feature, such as a Control Panel. Finally there is Dedicated Servers. These are generally reserved for high traffic sites that require their own server to operate.

There are many options available to both individuals and organisations alike, and it can often be quite a daunting task to choose what type of Web Hosting is correct for you. If you are confused by the whole idea of Web Hosting, or would just like to discuss what options are available to you, Global Gold and their dedicated support team will be glad to assist.
