What is this "Hosting" thing and why should I care?

What is web hosting?

Every site you visit on the Internet – including this one – is stored on a computer somewhere. And all of those computers link together to weave the fabric of the Internet.

Web hosting companies exist to store web site files and make them available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week – for a fee. If you want a web site to profile your business, show photos from your latest trip, or publish your blog, your site will need to be hosted somewhere. That's where hosting companies come in. And there are thousands of them to choose from, with a wide range of prices, features and quality.

"Thanks to Black Cap Design, I have a website that works. Not only do I think it looks great, but my clients are using it, and their feedback has been incredibly positive. The final product was a result of a partnership between my thoughts and Black Cap's creativity, design expertise and of course their technical know-how. They know what works and what doesn't. Thanks to Black Cap Design, I am proud to include my web site in all my marketing ventures."
