Web Hosting is a service provided by hundreds of companies worldwide in order to “host” and provide websites for anyone on the internet to see. Web hosting often involves from one to several thousand computers that run Web hosting software, such as Apache, OS X Server, or Windows Server. Most websites you see on the Web are accessed from a "shared host," which is a single computer that can host several hundred Web sites. Larger websites often use a "dedicated host," which is a single machine that hosts only one website. Sites with extremely high amounts of traffic, such as google.com or microsoft.com, use several computers to host one site.
