A website hosting service is a type of service that allows individuals and organizations to make their websites accessible on the internet. When you create a website, all its files—such as images, text, and scripts—need to be stored somewhere. Hosting services provide the necessary infrastructure and technology to store these files on powerful servers, ensuring that they can be accessed by visitors from anywhere in the world. The hosting company manages the servers, maintaining their performance, security, and uptime so that your website remains online and functions smoothly.
