A web hosting service is an essential component of internet infrastructure, enabling clients to host their websites and make them accessible on the World Wide Web. It provides the necessary resources and tools for creating and maintaining a site. Companies that offer web hosting services are commonly referred to as web hosts.
A web hosting plan encompasses all the features included in a web hosting service, such as available storage space, allocated CPU cores for server processes, and security measures. Essentially, a web hosting plan is a comprehensive package that forms the foundation of your web presence.
