Hosting Information
Well, great. Now you've got this brilliant web page from DataDragon Information
Services, but where are you going to put it?
On the Internet there are 4 main ways to host a web page.
- (In terms of increasing cost)
- Local ISP Hosting
- Many Internet providers offer free space to their customers.
The only problem with the service is that your web address would probably be something long like http://www.isp.com/users/~you/. It's a nuisance
to put on business cards, and customers can easily mispell it.
- Sub-Hosting
- Companies like DataDragon can provide you with an easier to remember URL such as http://DataDragon.com/you/. It's easier
for your customers to remember, and generally has value-added services such as use of CGI Scripts and email options.
- Virtual Domain Hosting
- Probably the best option for the small-business is the use of a virtual domain hosting. V-Hosting (as its called)
allows you to rent web server space from some one else. As a benefit you can usually get your own domain name, so that your web address would be
http://www.you.com/.
- Dedicated Connection
- The most expensive of the options is to set up your own computer as a web server and get a
dedicated connection to the Internet. You get the ultimate control over everything that happens, but at a cost generally too high
for most small businesses.
