What is Hosting?
When a user's website is on someone else's servers. e.g. a user
may register a domain with wwsdomains, and then place his website
with wwsdomains. Then his website is said to be hosted at wwsdomains.
How do I get it ?

Why do I need it?
If you wish to have your website seen by users 24 hours, then
it must reside on a server which is connected to the Internet
24 hours, such as wwsdomains's server.

webspace.
What is the difference in MS-Access and MS-SQL
database hosting as far as the price is concerned and the number
of users that can log on at a time?
The difference is primarily the cost. There is no limit to the
number of users who can log on, however, if your site is very
heavily used and there is a lot of querying of the database, then
please try to use MSSQL.

any extra charge for the load our servers will bear for download
requests?

to close any site which we find to contain copied, or illegal
material, e.g. pictures, software, sound files.

A virtual domain, is one which looks as if it is hosted on it's
own SERVER, but is not, a non-virtual domain is simply hosted
on a machine on its own, with no other websites on it. To do the
latter you would have to co-locate your own server on our network.

This usually applies to websites, where the website is mirrored
across two countries. If users come from country A, they will

of a website on another server.

This is when a domain is registered in one place e.g. wwsdomains,
