Web hosting is basically storage space for your website on a server. You upload your content to the storage space and publish it to make it available for others to view online. The hosting company will then point your domain to the content, so that when your web address is typed in visitors will be able to see your website and all of the content that you uploaded.
You don't need to be a complete tech wiz to build and host a website, though an understanding of FTP (file transfer protocol) and a willingness to learn will help. There are plenty of online resources to help you out, including our great Help & Support guides. If however you don't feel confident building your own site, we offer a choice of affordable web design packages or you might want to take a look at our easy website builder, Really Quick Sites.
You will be billed quarterly for any of our web hosting packages. There are no long-term contracts, you can cancel the service at any time and the hosting plan will continue to function until the end of the paid for period.
