What is Mac Website Hosting?

Anyone can have a presence on the Internet these days. Building a website on a Mac can be as simple as word processing a few pages of text and adding some photos, but once you’ve created your website on your Mac you need to publish and “host” (or store) it on the Web.

This is where you have to find and pay a website hosting company to store your website, it’s images, words, files etc. Mac website hosting companies rent you space on a server that’s connected to the Internet, allowing the world to view your website.

Most Mac hosting companies offer close to 100% “uptime” meaning that your website will be online almost 24/7 365 days a year. Whether you choose a free Mac hosting company, a cheap or expensive service will likely be based on your needs and budget. No matter what your website needs, or the kind of Mac hosting you choose, every website in the world needs to be hosted somewhere.
