Hosting is the technical term for the computer (server) where your sites pages are held and accessed. When choosing a host you need to pick depending on the services they offer, for example if you want to run an online shop your host server needs to support e-commerce.
If you choose to have your website designed using html then you can either pick your own hosting service or use the one I use, streamline, but depending on what you want on your site a different host may be more appropriate.
The hosts
that I use for both my html and flash sites offer a variety of hosting
packages, for a range of prices to suit all pockets.
Once your sites needs have been discussed, then I will be able to give you a better idea of your options regarding hosting. To give you a guide I've listed the price ranges for both options, to the right as this will be an additional cost to your website design.
A domain name is the web address you enter to access a site for example www.pippasweb.co.uk. If you don't yet have your own domain name, please don't feel there is any rush, as this is usually bundled with the hosting.
