Web hosting is the process of renting space and bandwidth through a company so that your website will be online. It means that you can publish your website so that anybody in the world can visit your website on the Web.</p> <p>You can either pay a web hosting company for your website hosting or you can opt for free hosting. If you go for free hosting then you will have banner ads or pop-ups on your website. If you pay you will have no adverts and will be in complete control of your website.

Uptime is the amount of time that your website is available and online throughout the month.

If your site was down for a total of 45 minutes in the month then your uptime was approximately 99.9%.</p> <p>Is 100% uptime possible?<br /> Unfortunately no hosting company can provide 100% uptime. Even the biggest and best multi-million rand and dollar sites go down from time to time due to various unforeseen circumstances.

Make sure that they have systems in place to continually monitor all of the websites they host so that they know if there is a problem as soon as possible.
