Hosting is like renting space on the internet to store your website's files and data. When someone wants to visit your website, their browser sends a request to the hosting company's servers, which then deliver your website's content to the visitor's browser.
Before you have a website, you need a web address, or domain name, like www.example.com. Registrars are companies that help you register and manage these domain names. They make sure your web address is unique and available for your use.
Once you have a domain name, you need a place to store your website's files. Hosting companies provide this space on their servers. It's like renting a plot of land on the internet where you can build and store your website.
When you register a domain name, you need to tell the internet where your website is hosted. This is done through nameservers and DNS (Domain Name System). Nameservers are like signposts that tell browsers where to find your website's files on the internet. DNS is like a phone book that translates your domain name into the numerical IP address of your hosting server.
You can find out more information in our Nameservers and DNS article.
In simple terms, hosting is like renting space for your website, registrars help you get your web address, and nameservers and DNS connect your domain to your hosting. Understanding these basics can help you navigate the world of website hosting more easily.
