What can I do with my web site?

The most important thing to do is promote it. Put your web site address on all your business paperwork, letterheads, business cards, promotional materials and advertising. Add attachments to all of your outgoing emails.

In this way your web site can work most effectively for you as a port of call for your clients to find out all about you.

What is hosting?

The internet is a made up of a massive network of computers that are all permanently connected to each other via cable, satellite and telephone systems spanning the entire globe. Each of these computers holds information about where web sites are stored, so when you go looking for a particular site you get steered to the correct place.

A web site is made up of files that link together via 'hyperlinks'.

The term 'hosting' refers to the computer where the web page files that make up your web site are stored, so that they are accessible via the internet. Without hosting, your web site cannot exist.
