Web Hosting

Web hosting allows your site to be accessible online by providing a web server to store your website files. In other words, obtaining a hosting plan is necessary to launch and operate your site.

To ensure your site remains online and receives timely support, select a reliable web hosting provider that caters to your website needs best. The most popular website hosting services for both personal or business use include:

• Shared hosting. A single shared server hosts multiple websites, allocating each with a specific amount of storage space and resources. Usually, beginners and bloggers opt for shared hosting options due to their affordability.
• WordPress hosting. Similar to shared hosting, many users share web hosting servers. However, managed WordPress hosting offers more tools and features for WordPress website optimisation, including its speed, performance, and maintenance.
• VPS hosting. This web hosting service divides a physical server into multiple virtual machines, providing each user with dedicated resources and complete root access. Virtual private server (VPS) hosting plans are more suited to tech-savvy users who require additional power and control.
• Cloud hosting. With cloud hosting plans, websites operate on multiple virtual servers, minimizing potential downtime and hardware issues. As a result, these web hosting services are perfect for ensuring stable website uptime and performance, especially for freelance web developers managing numerous clients.

Also, make sure to verify if your selected web host offers a website builder or supports your preferred content management system (CMS). This will simplify the process of creating your website.

With Hostinger, you can enjoy the website builder, 1-click WordPress installer, and high-speed hosting with a 99.9% uptime guarantee – all at an unbeatable price. Begin with shared web hosting and upgrade to cloud plans for more power, or opt for VPS plans when you're ready for a customised solution.

Getting a web hosting plan with Hostinger is incredibly easy. Just scroll up to the pricing table, select one of the web hosting packages, and click the Add to cart button.

Once you’re on the checkout page, choose a hosting subscription period. Although monthly payments are an option, we suggest opting for longer plans as they provide more value for your money.

Next, sign up or sign in to your Hostinger account and choose a payment method. Add your personal details and click the Submit Secure Payment button to complete the registration process.

Once you finish the payment process, you will receive login credentials to access your account. From there, you can manage websites, domains, databases, email accounts, files, and more.

With the exception of the Single plan, all Hostinger hosting plans include a complimentary domain when you order for a year or more.

If you already have a domain from another registrar, simply point it to Hostinger nameservers. Managing your website and troubleshooting issues become simpler when you keep your hosting account and domain with a single web hosting company.

Website hosting is responsible for hosting websites and ensuring their availability on the internet. A domain name serves as the web address, like hostinger.in, enabling users to access a website easily. Both components are vital for constructing a fully operational website.

Without web hosting, you need to transform your computer into a hosting server, a task needing deep technical expertise and costly maintenance fees. Without domains, you will need to use an IP address to reach your website, which is impractical.
