The website you build must be stored on a computer that has a reliable, secure connection to the Internet. Hosting a website means providing the technical resources (the computer hardware and operating system, the networking equipment, the Internet connection, etc.) needed to make your website available to your customers. You can either host your own website or hire a web hosting company to host your site. There are advantages and disadvantages to both.

Virtual private servers have been used for quite some time, but lately they have gained popularity and more and more people have a need for something other than shared and dedicated web-hosting services. A virtual private server is a single physical server that is split into multiple virtual servers.
