What
is Web Hosting?
According
to Wikipedia, a web hosting service
is a type of Internet hosting
service that allows individuals and
organizations to provide their own
website accessible via the World
Wide Web. Web hosts are companies
that provide space on a server they
own or lease for use by their
clients as well as providing
Internet connectivity, typically in
a data center.

DOMAIN
MANAGEMENT SERVICES,
usually referred to as web hosting.
To keep it simple our DMS consists
of two basic components:
Domain Registration and Web Hosting.
Domain
Registration
Choosing a domain name for
your company's website is extremely
important. It should be simple,
easy to remember and reflect the
purpose of your site and the image
of your company or organization.
Here are some important
suggestions you may want to think
about when choosing a domain name:
Keep it simple: It
is important that your domain name
remains as simple as possible. It
is not recommended to use hyphens,
numbers or other non-letters in the
name. If the name was provided on
the radio, would it need explanation
or clarification? It shouldn't.
Keep it relevant:
The most common domain name is
simply to use your business name.
For instance if your company name
was Chatham Chihuahuas you may
choose to www.chathamchihuahuas.com.
It is easy to remember because it is
the name of your business. You may
choose instead to have a domain name
that describes the essence of your
company, using important keywords.
For instance a site like this could
use the domain
www.webdesignchatham.com, because it
describes what we do.
Keep it short: If
possible, short is better. The
domain name www.ford.com is much
simpler and less prone to typing
errors than www.fordmotorcompany.com.
Use multiple domain names:
Some companies have multiple domain
names in order to better market
themselves on the net or to make
their sites easier to find. This
does not have to entail multiple
domain hosting charges.
