Hosting is online storage for the files that make up your website. You must have hosting in order for people to view your website on the internet.
Website hosting fees vary from one provider to another. Typical prices range from $6-$20 per month for shared hosting, $40-$100 per month for a virtual private server, and $100-$600 per month for a dedicated server.

Solutions to meet your needs
I'm happy to provide assistance and recommendations for choosing and signing up for your hosting provider and domain name.
I've spent countless hours searching for the best hosting providers available at an affordable price and am proud to be a Bluehost affiliate.
For many years I recommended iPower (aka iPowerWeb) as my preferred provider. However, due to recent changes they've made to their control panel and numerous issues with server and email performance, I am no longer promoting their services.
Some tips for choosing a website hosting provider:
- I strongly recommend that businesses avoid "free" hosting services such as GeoCities.
- A good choice for most small businesses and non-profits are Unix-based shared servers such as those offered by Bluehost.
- Businesses that have very active websites or need more control over the server should look for virtual private or dedicated servers.
- Finally, if price is not an object and you're looking for the absolute best in features, flexibility, and customer service, Rackspace Managed Hosting will build a hosting solution around your needs.
