Web hosting explained

Whether you are a church or faith-based organization, for your website to be seen on the Internet, it must be hosted on a secure server with a reliable connection to the Internet; this is web hosting.

Web hosting is the Internet service that allows you to make your website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosting companies provide the hosting environment, which includes the servers, routers, switches, backup power generators, secure and climate-controlled facilities, Internet connectivity through multiple carriers and support necessary to present a website to the world. There is a wide range of pricing for web hosting services, starting from free up to thousands monthly.

With so many options to consider, choosing a web host for your church isn’t always an easy task. The most important factor in selecting a church-friendly web host is ensuring they provide everything you need.

What hosting plan do I need?

Before choosing your web hosting package, identify your needs. As with all hosting plans, there will be some features you need and some you don’t. Make sure you focus on the essentials required to launch your website. You may want all the nice extras but will you use them?

It’s also a good idea to try and pick a host that will allow you to expand and increase your plan as your website grows. If you want to start selling online, upgrading to a larger e-commerce hosting plan is easier and quicker to implement than transferring to a new host.

What types of web hosting plans are there?

Web hosting plans range from free personal homepage hosting to packages that support large global corporate websites.

Finally, many hosts can tailor their hosting plans to you, so don’t be afraid to ask!
