Web Hosting

Bandwidth is the measurement of data that is transferred between your website and users of your website, in a given amount of time.

Bandwidth is incredibly important component of your hosting, as it determines how quickly your website can deliver content to your visitors during peak traffic times.

Kimberley Web Design hosting packages offer unlimited bandwidth, another reason to purchase with us.

The most common form of web hosting is shared hosting. In this scenario, you rent a space on a companies server, for your website to live.

Shared hosting servers can store up to 1000’s of websites on a server. They employ systems engineers to make sure that all websites run smoothly.

Shared hosting is more affordable for most businesses.

Dedicated hosting on the other hand requires that you rent the entire web server where your website lives.

Management of the server is controlled by you.

Dedicated servers are expensive. They are mostly used by big companies.

The short answer to that is yes.

Having your hosting company and therefore the servers where your website is stored, will provide speeds up to 3 times faster, than buying hosting elsewhere.

Web hosting is a monthly fee that you pay to have your site physically stored on a web server which makes your site accessible on the Internet.

Kimberley Web Design can help you through the signing up process and make recommendations as to the best value for money. Often for a small business, the least expensive package is sufficient.

Hosting companies require that you own your domain in order to host with them and it is often good practice to obtain hosting and domain registration with the same company.

Most hosting companies employ technical engineers to make sure your website is always available and support staff for when website owners are in need of help. They also provide free email services.
