Dummies' Guide to Web Hosting
Most people haven't a clue on how to start on their web
sites. We have come up with a simple guide to explain
all web hosting features offered in the market and helping
people get what they really need for their websites.
We will be adding more helpful materials to aid
you in your website. So, bookmark this page for future
references to view our updates.
Personal Computers, Servers Or
ISP?
You need a server to host your site so that it can be
viewed over the internet. This server can either be an
Internet Service Provider or of your own. Most websites
are hosted by an Internet Service Provider because they
can provide powerful server hardware,
high speed connections and reliable
server support.
Most providers have very fast connections to the Internet
such as a full T3 fiber-optic (45 Megabytes per second)
connections which is about 1000 high speed (56 Kilobytes
per second) modems combined.
For those who are looking to set
up their own servers and host their own websites,
a personal computer is often not powerful enough to do
the job. As the name suggests, a personal computer can
hardly handle multiple visitors to your website- servers
are needed to handle these visitors simultaneously.
Getting Your Web Hosting
There are thousands of companies that offer web hosting
for your website. Which to choose and what to look out
for? With the multitude of features and terms in each
hosting plan, it can be puzzling for those who are just
starting out. The golden rule in choosing your website:
Nothing beats reliable web hosting. Many web hosting plans
offer more space, more benefits than
others. The decision to your web hosting should
be based on reliability. We have seen too many
disappointed website owners who chose benefits and space
over reliability.
What do We Provide?
At DW Design, we provide servers with 99.8
% uptime. These servers are rented from huge
server companies; they do the maintenance and support
on a large scale for thousands of companies like us and
we rent their servers and services. Will
this jack up the overall web hosting prices for end users?
No. As we have previously mentioned, web hosting is a
highly competitive field and it is amazing how these server
companies are even making profits. We make some pocket
money while designing websites for our clients. Check

In the event of our server company turning into a bad
hat, we simply switch to another server company and the
whole process is seemingly seamless. We have other websites
hosted together with your website and if anything happens,
there are 2 groups of people looking out for your website-
the server company and us.
