Web and domain hosting can be confusing for the netizens and general internet users. Both of them seem to deliver different business functions. Though, this is not the case. Domain hosting combines the concept of domain registration as well as its hosting. Web hosting on the other hand does not involve the registration process. It is the process after domain registration. Hosting providers deliver both the registration as well as hosting resources to get your online presence in front of potential customers looking for your products and solutions. Where as domain registrars may not necessarily provide both domain registration and web hosting together.

Web hosting includes technologies and resources required to get your business online. Hosting providers have physical storage space in one of their data centers and they provide that space on primarily three pricing models such as free, shared and dedicated hosting. You can further add more languages and scripts to your servers and give your business the kind of online presence it needs.

In domain hosting, the service provider lets you purchase a domain name along with web hosting technologies. Websites can not be accessed if you do not have a domain name. Your domain name is the address where your business is hosted online. Every website then functions in the way you integrated it on your hosting plan.
