shared hosting

Shared hosting is a web hosting service where multiple websites are stored on a single server, which is a powerful computer that hosts websites. Think of it like renting a room in a shared apartment—each website has its own space and resources like storage and bandwidth, but they share the same physical hardware. This setup is cost-effective because costs are divided among many users. While it’s suitable for small to medium websites, heavy traffic or complex needs might require more dedicated hosting solutions. Shared hosting offers a straightforward and affordable way to get a website online without managing the server hardware.
