Web Hosting for small business - FAQs

Answers to some of frequently asked questions.

Shared Website Hosing is a type of website hosting where multiple users share resources such as an I.P address of a secured server. This is the most common form of web hosting because it is very affordable and generally convenient for smaller and growing businesses.

A Web hosting platform is basically an internet server which stores all your website data. You need three things to have a functioning website: a domain name, web hosting, and website files. Your website files need to be hosted or saved on a live internet server for it to be live on the internet when someone types your domain name on Google. So you need a web hosting plan because your website won’t go live if its not under a web hosting plan.

Always choose Short and Easy to remember names. Perfect domain names are single worded with letters and sometimes with numbers and hyphens. Special characters are not allowed in domain names. Examples of perfect domains are: www.apple.com instead of www.apple-incorporated.com. If you’d like to be descriptive to the nature of the business you are in, then try to keep it really short and brief, for example: www.mashjoyhosting.com instead of www.mashjoywebhosting.com or www.ricomotors.co.za instead of www.ricomotorscardealership.co.za
