A website host is a kind of Internet hosting provider that enables individuals and companies to create their own website accessible through the World Wide Web. Website hosting usually refers to an agreement between a company and an individual or an organization that owns and operates a website. It is the responsibility of the website host to ensure that all the content, files, and resources on the site are available for access by the website user. The hosting of a website typically provides a mechanism to let users and other internet users know that the website exists, as well as allow updates to be made whenever required. Website hosts offer their services on a pay-per-download basis through a Web hosting company, which enables website owners to update and maintain their websites without having to invest too much money in doing so.
