How to Build a Website Step 1 - Hosting

I going to cover a list of questions I frequently receive from new clients. The most asked question I get is "How do I get online?".

Well actually it is quite simple you need a hosting service, domain name and a web page. Now for the complicated version.

Hosting is where you put your website and all the Web pages. While it's possible to build a website on your personal computer and never move it online, it's somewhat pointless. No one but you will ever be able to see it. So the first thing you'll want to do is find a Web hosting provider.

Tri-County Web can arrange hosting for you. As a matter of fact I will include the first year of hosting as part of the design package. After the first year there will be a yearly fee based on the type of website we develop.

If you choose a Content Mamagement System site the fee will be more and include security patches to the CMS software and any 3rd party extensions incorporated into the website.

So hopefully I covered one of the main parts of getting a website online.
