Web Hosting
Web Hosting is the service providing space on the Internet for websites.
When you make a website and want other people to see it, you will need to publish (or upload) it with a web hosting service.
Web hosting services work by storing your website files in high-powered computers (web servers) connected to a very fast network. When someone types in your web address (such as www.thanet-web-design.com ), the Internet connects to the web server holding your website files and then transfers your website information back to their computer. From there they can surf and view the pages of your website.
Anything related to managing these servers and its software, security, support, bandwidth, speed and so much more, is what we are all about!

Domain Names
When hosting a website, it’s important to remember that you have to have a domain name so your website can be found on the Internet.
The domain name is basically your company’s Internet address; the same way your company’s street address is used to find your offices, a domain name is used to find your website.
When selecting a domain name, it's always good to pick a domain name that’s memorable and relevant for your business! Below you can check to see if a domain name that you would like is available.
