Web hosting is a service provided by companies that sell or lease space on their dedicated server where you store the files that make your website accessible on the internet. These web hosting companies typically require you to own a domain, and they may also help you purchase one.

Once you purchase the Web hosting plan, we store your website on our server and assign it a unique DNS address. The DNS is the address that allows people around the world to access your website. This unique address is required for people to view your website. By purchasing a website hosting package you’re buying space on our server.

There are several options to help you build your website – from coding with HTML to using a CMS platform. If you require a high degree of functionality from your website, you’ll benefit from CMS applications that can help you build a flexible website. Our web hosting plans give you access to free, server-side applications to develop and customize your website on popular Content Management System (CMS) applications like WordPress, Magento and Joomla!

Moving your website to our server is a simple process; access your existing website files from your current hosting server and upload them through our Hosting Control Center (or via an FTP client). If you don’t have immediate access to your website files, you should be able to request a copy from your current web hosting provider. If you have any questions along the way, our 24/7 support team is here to assist you. We can help you determine the best method for transitioning your website to our server account.

If you’ve built your website in an HTML editor, upload your website files via FTP (File Transfer Protocol). We have a built-in FTP File Manager for you to access in our Hosting Control Center. If your files are larger, we recommend using the tool like FileZilla, which is compatible with Windows®, Mac®, and Linux® operating systems.
