discuss what your options are so that you can find your
“perfect host”.
A host is a server which provides a home for your website on
the World Wide Web. Just as your computer contains all your

website. Why can’t you just keep all those files on your own
computer? Because that would mean users would have to
connect directly to your computer to see your website. Not a

machine run like a tired snail. With a host, you can simply
upload everything you need to the server and your users can
then connect there to see your site. It lets the site run
faster and allows it to have all the security and extras it
needs.
