After processing through software testing hosting a site is main concern.So after having quality assurance software testing it is posted on server to run on Internet.

Web hosting is basically a way for individuals and companies to post websites on the Internet for others to access. Any type of web content including websites can then be accessed by users and some of these services are free although they will have restricted facilities; however, most are paid services.

There are many types of web hosting services some provide free hosting but with these types you pay the price of having restricted facilities that usually allow the likes of blogs, email and basic websites to be accessed. Many restrictions exist with free web hosting but that is to be expected and for some it is an ideal situation but for only a few dollars per month, a paid web hosting service is far superior.

Sometimes site after developing do not tested by automated software testing tools so when it is posted on server it fails to run on the Internet.So before posting people must pass it through automated software testing tools and then send it for posting on server

Most people and companies start their hosting by using a shared server system which means your files are on the system with other peoples. However, it is often a good idea to see if the company is reliable before this more costly option of a dedicated server is taken. You need to have a registered domain to have a web hosting package otherwise files, websites and other digital information cannot be stored or accessed.

The good thing about having your own web hosting package and domain means that all your email addresses will contain your domain name in them and not that of the free service provider you may have been using previously. If you have a business presence online you cannot afford to have another company's name at the end of your own e.g. www.yourcompanyname.hostingcompany.com when it should really look like this: www.yourcompanyname.com. If you have a busy site with lots of visitors, downloads or video etc. then you need to have a hosting package with sufficient bandwidth; this is the amount of data that can be transmitted.

When the testing is done through automated software test it is assured that the software is now error free.Testing through automated software test is very helpful for quality assurance of a software.

If you only have a small site that does not have much on it then this probably won't concern you but as soon as audio, video and hi-resolution images are incorporated, it becomes more of a concern. While it is possible to use your own home PC as a web host, this is not advised as the number of security issues involved will make it a risky proposition and it is far easier to pay another company for their web hosting service.
