A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows
individuals and organizations to make their own website accessible via
the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a
server they own or lease for use by their clients as well as providing
Internet connectivity, typically in a data center.

A number of hosting companies describe their services as virtual
hosting. Virtual hosting usually implies that their services will be
transparent and that each Web site will have its own domain name and set
of e-mail addresses. In most usages, hosting and virtual hosting are
synonyms. Some hosting companies let you have your own virtual server,
the appearance that you are controlling a server that is dedicated
entirely to your site.
