A 'web hosting service' is a type of Internet hosting service that allows
individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the
World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own
or lease for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity,
typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and
connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their
data center, called colocation.
