What is web hosting?

The Internet is an international network of computers running many different types of services (e-mail and websites are the most common services). Every website is stored on a web server (also known as a web host). These servers are connected to the Internet by permanent, high speed connections.

Once a website has been built, it needs a web server to "host" the site. This enables the site to be permanently connected to the Internet. There are thousands of web host companies which offer their services to companies wanting to put their websites "online". If you do not understand their terminology, trying to pick just one web host that suits your needs for an acceptable price is a very daunting task.

What is Domain Name Registration?

Every website has a unique address. It is this address (also known as a URL - Uniform Resource Locator) that is typed into the browser that enables your site to appear.

It is a good idea to choose a website name which reflects the nature of the business or which will directly appeal to the type of visitor that the business wants to attract. It is also possible to purchase many domain names and have them target the same site.

Why choose me?

I can handle the process of obtaining a domain name and web space for your site so you do not have to worry about this aspect. Requirements will vary according to your sites needs from simple hosting on a free web host, to high bandwidth servers running more complicated scripts. By letting the web designer deal with purchasing the web domain, this means that you can be sure that the website will work perfectly and allow for forseeable changes to the site in the future.

Domain Name Registration is a very simple process. Deciding on a name for the website can be slightly trickier, as you might have to try several possibilities before finding an address that hasn't already been purchased. I can help advise possible addresses for the website, and several strategies (such as buying multiple names to ensure that more people will "stumble" across your site).

I no longer accept new work, but am happy to point you in the right direction for your web design needs!

Alongside the freelance web design work, I am a professional juggler, and I run an online juggling equipment and novelty items store. These 2 ventures are my main source of income which is why I no longer do website design for new clients! It would be great if you could check out the websites below!
