Web hosting keeps your website files for the Internet.

A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that provides individuals, organizations and users with online systems for storing information, images, video, or other content accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center.

• Free hosting - often with advertising and very limited access
• Shared hosting - access to space on a server sharing RAM and CPU resources
• Dedicated hosting - renting a server in a data center
• Colocation - the user owns the server and puts it in a data center

This service generally runs $10 to $300 per month. Quality varies widely depending on sevice support and advertising rights. Colocation often runs into the $millions per year for large companies.
