Site Hosting - NT Hosting - Unix Hosting is the service that provides the computers ("servers") on which the web site runs.
Costs: Costs include a one-time set-up charge and ongoing charges and depend on capacity (disk storage and data transfer) and the type of access provided. Typical costs might be a $60 one-time set-up charge plus $29 per month for a low-volume web site.
Issues:
Some content developers host web sites on their own servers, often with just a single connection to the Internet. This approach compromises the web site's performance and reliability. Companies that specialize in providing site hosting services can do a much better job of providing the hardware, but usually don't develop the content for the site.
