If you are an absolute beginner this is where you should start. if you already have your own domain name and web hosting you can fast forward to part 3.

First, there is the Shared Web Hosting UK. This type of hosting means a location is shared by many websites. All the websites in a shared server will share the resources such as space, bandwidth, IP address and so on.

Below are a few more Shared Web Hosting UK but I could go into great detail and do not want to confuse you. If you have the time, look into all of them by using your favourite search engine and decide which is best for you.

Please be clear that the thing you're really in need of is excellent value. The cheapest price will probably not provide you with the best value. The thing you're really in need of from a web hosting firm is a first-rate blend of a variety of components that will give proper value.

Affordable Web Hosting on a dedicated server: A very big web hosting company usually sells this type of Affordable Web Hosting. This type of affordable web hosting is usually used by medium size websites. It also requires a lot of cost but the cost isn't as much as that of an affordable web hosting strictly hosted on a personal computer. Maintenance is also of great importance but the affordable web hosting provider offering this service, must be able to provide assistance if need be.

This will irk the smaller hosts, but if your site is a serious one, put it on a serious host. Web hosting costs peanuts these days. People can be funny about spending an extra $5 a month. You'll wish you'd paid $500 when your site goes skew-whiff, and you can't get a reply from their technical support.

This is why comparing different services provided by affordable web hosting providers is important. While other hosting companies lure potential customers with additional services, others simply make sure that your site is up and running and available to anyone who wants to visit them.
