Website Hosting

Once your website design is complete, you need to set up a way for people to visit. You need to purchase a domain name (www.yourcompany.com), and you need to find a place on the Internet for that domain to live. This is called "hosting".

If you look at your domain name as being an apartment and the host as being an apartment building, things become easier to understand. Just as you can rent apartments of various sizes, you can purchase hosting packages of various sizes, too. If you have lots of furniture, you need a bigger apartment. The larger your website (many pages, lots of media such as music and streaming video), the bigger the host you'll need. The number of visitors you have plays a role in the size of your host as well. More visitors use more "bandwidth", and as a result, a larger hosting package.

Don't let all of this put you off - let TB Enterprises deal with it! We'll take care of everything - from initial registration to setting up your hosting package to getting your site live on the Internet. We can also make the process of transferring domains you may already have registered, or websites you may already have online, as seamless as possible.

The vast majority of websites require little more than a basic hosting package (though companies will try to "up-sell" you time after time). There are many companies that offer comprehensive hosting packages at competitive prices. These packages often include domain name registration at little or no extra cost. But, more than price, you need to look at security and downtime. You need a hosting company that has very little (if any) downtime so your site is up and running when your visitors come to call. And, you need a hosting company that is extremely secure, one that keeps the bad guys out of your website.

We choose to host the sites we administer through Network Solutions, one of the most repected and secure hosting companies in the world. They have reasonably priced packages with a wide array of features such as multiple e-mail accounts, the ability to stream audio and video, the ability to set-up "sub-domains", and they easily incorporate form and database usage. These features, coupled with nearly 100% "up-time" and 24 hour service make Network Solutions hard to beat.

When we set up your registration or hosting, you maintain overall ownership of the domain. You receive all account numbers, passwords, etc., and we never lock out your ability to move your website hosting or maintenance to another company.
