If you typed in your domain name into Internet Explorer, you would probably find a sales page for the company you had just bought it from. This is because all you have at the moment is a name.
What you now need to do is point that name to the files that make up your website/squeeze page. These website files in turn need to be stored in a place on the Internet. In other words you need space connected to the World Wide Web where you can store your files. This space is simply known as webspace.
Providers of webspace (or web hosting) have giant versions of the hard disk in your computer. This space is split into lots of little bits of space which they then hire out. People hire this space to load their website data and images onto. They then give this space an address to allow others to look at the website by pointing their domain name at the space.
If you imagine webspace as a piece of land ready to be built on, then the website file uploaded into this space would be the house that gets built on the land. Finally the new house is given an address so that people can find it. That address for the new house is the equivalent of the domain name your have just purchased.
Obviously this has been greatly simplified, but is in essence exactly what happens. In the next chapter we will look at the images and files that need to be stored in the space for you to have a website, but first let’s look in greater detail at the webspace element of all of this.
As with domain names, there are a huge number of web hosting providers, paid for and free. You may even find that your personal Internet Service Provider (ISP) allows you a certain amount of space.
When you make the decision as to what web hosting provider to use, there are several factors you should consider.
