Web hosting is a service provided by companies known as web hosts or hosting providers, which allows individuals and organizations to make their website accessible on the internet. These hosting providers rent out space on their servers and provide the necessary resources for storing website files, managing databases, and ensuring the website can be accessed by visitors from around the world.
When you sign up for a web hosting service, you are essentially renting space on a server where your website's files, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, and other media, will be stored and served to users when they access your site through their web browsers.
