What is web hosting?
Web hosting is a service that provides a physical location for the files of a Web site. Users upload files to computers stored in secure and climate-controlled environments and permanently linked to the Internet through high-speed data lines. These computers store the Web pages that make up Websites. As soon as your pages are uploaded to the server they become available to visitors on the Internet - providing they have the correct address or domain name. (www.yourwebsite.com)
What is a domain name?
This is the unique name that identifies a website. On the Web, the domain name is the part of the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) that tells a domain name server where to forward a request for a Web page. For example, the domain name of this web site is yourarthere.net.
Does yourarthere.net sell domain names?
Not currently. We recommend using godaddy.com to buy your domain name.
