Web Hosting FAQ
What is web hosting and why do I need it?
Web hosting is a service that makes your website available on the internet. The hosting service provides a secure online space to store your website’s files: the code, images, text, and other content. Simply put, you need a hosting plan to make your site up and accessible for everyone. The most popular website hosting services for both personal and business use include:
- For a budget-friendly start, we choose shared hosting. It’s where multiple websites share a space on our server, providing you with dedicated storage and resources – perfect for small to medium sized businesses and startups.
- WordPress hosting. We optimize your WordPress website for speed and performance, and facilitate site maintenance.
- We support our web hosting packages with LiteSpeed server-side optimization.
Here at Black Bike Media we also offer webmaster services on our managed web hosting service.
