Web Host
Web host refers to a computer connected to the internet. Web host can also be termed as ‘web server’. The computer that is playing the role of the web server needs to be more powerful than normal PCs and the function of this web server is to serve up websites.
The website content of the user stays on this computer, so the people who are surfing on the internet can get a way to access his/her website.

There can be three main categories in which the web host can be classified based on the economic factor and common features:

1. Free Hosts:
The users who are not professional but are making websites only as a hobby....for them free hosting can be a good option. In free hosting space, bandwidth and other features provided are very limited. Generally free hosting enforces pop-ups, text or banner ads. Reliability, best performance and customer support is lacking in free hosting as well. When a user registers for a free host then the word free host gets added with the user’s domain name that gives an adverse effect in the eye of the visitors.

2. Shared Hosts:
The next type of web hosting to be discussed is shared hosting. This hosting service is used by many web sites .This type of hosting service is suitable for personal sites and small businesses whose internet prescence isn't mission critical.  No doubt that shared web hosting is better than free hosting but still it does not provide 100% satisfactory service.
In shared hosting one server is shared by the number of websites so its performance and availability gets affected. More websites usually means less performance. If a smaller number of websites are hosted by one server then it will be more expensive, but in this case there is more chance of reliability. There are many companies allowing customers to host multiple websites with different domains under a single account.

3. Dedicated and Private Hosts:
The next type of hosting is dedicated and private server hosting. This type of hosting is the most reliable.....because a private server is dedicated to a single customer by a Datacentre. Generally this will be used by large businesses and web professionals.
Web Design Hosting Co provides this level of quality and service via a datacentre in Washington DC. or the UK The only accounts on the server are sites that we have made, and we manage these installations 24 hours a day. We do not provide hosting facilities to anybody other than our website clients.
So unlike the free and budget hosting options, you don't have to worry that your site could be compromised by IRC servers, game servers, or material of a dubious nature. All of which may be sited right next to your business on free and budget hosting.
