Home Online Business - The Website Hosting
By Hanif Somani

To turn your online business into a successful online business, the correct website hosting is vitally important. Since its inception in 1990 by the CERN physicist, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the worldwide web has become the central and most important platform for sharing information and ideas. Sir Tim constructed the first client-server architecture and demonstrated that textual information can be served from a computer on which it sits (the server) to another remote computer (the client) which is requesting the information via a browser. This important experiment paved the way for the worldwide web as we know it. Since Sir Tim's discovery, the worldwide web has come a long way and now a website can deliver the information to the client in any media combination including video.

Due to its extreme convenience and ease of use, the worldwide web became the perfect format for storing any type of information that people around the world needed to access in the form of a website. Information technology firms such as Microsoft and Yahoo quickly came up with search engine technology to organise the data available on worldwide web. Google came on the scene later in 1998 but very quickly became the leader in search technology. Today, Google is the undoubted search champion with over 1 million servers in data centers around the world serving over 1 billion requests everyday.

Your website therefore is available to anyone on the planet 24/7 whether people are static (sitting at their desk with a computer) or mobile (tablet computer or smartphone). However as there are billions of websites already indexed on Google and other search engines and millions get added everyday, it is therefore important that you design your website carefully so that it is seen by at least those people who've searched for what you offer. This aspect is vitally important to turn your online business into successful online business. Later, articles on this website will demonstrate how to set up your site so that it is better ranked on search engines than your competitors. This article is about hosting your site.

There are 2 basic ways of hosting your site. Either on your own server at home or with a hosting company.

Basic things to consider when hosting a site to avoid lower ranking by search engines:

1) Your server should be fast i.e. it should serve the information that is requested instantly (not more than 7 seconds according to some tests).

2) Your server should never go offline. Every now and then servers do go offline for a number of reasons. However, with a good backup system this should not be an issue.

You may host your own site or you may employ the services of a professional website hosting company which would ensure that your site is fast and never go offline.

To turn your online business into a real online business success, there are a number of factors to think of and get it right. The website hosting is just one of those important factors.
