What is Web hosting?

Web hosting is the service of storing your website's files, databases and email on a server that is always connected to the internet, so anyone can visit your domain at any time. Plans differ in resources (disk, bandwidth), features (cPanel, one-click installs, backups) and support. For most small businesses a shared plan is enough to start, and upgrading later is a matter of moving to a bigger tier — no need to rebuild anything. Good hosts pair the hardware with real support, an uptime guarantee and easy payment options like Naira cards and bank transfer.
