How Site Hosting Works

Website hosting entails creating and managing a digital “space” where all the components of your website lives. Most businesses lease space on another company’s servers, as opposed to purchasing their own equipment. The hosting company also performs other tasks, including keeping data secure, making updates as needed, and ensuring files are regularly backed up. Businesses have two options when it comes to hosting.

Traditional Hosting

Traditional hosting usually involves a single server, on which your site’s essential elements are stored. Dedicated hosting mean’s your site will have a server of its own, which can sometimes be cost-prohibitive, especially for small businesses with limited resources. There is also shared hosting, which means your website will be on a server with many other business websites.

Traditional hosting has some drawbacks. If your site is hosted on a single server and damage occurs, it could be down for days or even weeks. Additionally, if your site or another site experiences an influx of users in a shared hosting situation, the server may be unable to accommodate them all. As a result, you could lose customers as well as profits.

Cloud Hosting

While cloud hosting also uses servers, a website’s contents are actually spread out over multiple servers. This is beneficial for a few different reasons. In the event your site experiences more traffic than usual, cloud hosting ensures that there will be resources available to handle the additional traffic. It also prevents valuable data from being lost. If one server is damaged, identical files are backed up on another server, which can be easily accessed.

Another great benefit of cloud hosting is its easy scalability. There may come a time when your business requires more bandwidth or server space. These changes can easily be made in a cloud hosting situation, while they’re often much slower to implement when a site is hosted traditionally.
