Understanding Hosting Through a Business Analogy
Customers came to the address...
But there was no shop structure, no shelves, no products inside
Rahul bought a shop, name board and printed visiting cards with the address
But there was a problem :
He had an address
He had a shop name
But he had no physical space to keep products
Understanding Hosting Through a Business Analogy
Rahul realized:
Address alone is not enough
He need a place to store products and operate
So he rented a physical space
Now:
Address = Easy to find
Shop space = Place where products are kept

Hosting is a service that stores your website files on a server so people can see your website online

Domain = Shop Address
Hosting = Shop Building

Without Hosting :
Website cannot go live
Pages will not load
Business cannot run ads or SEO
Without hosting your website won’t be visible to visitors
Example:
Buying domain without hosting is like
Printing visiting cards
Without opening the shop

Server sends website files
Domain tells WHERE to go.
Hosting stores WHAT to show.
Both are required
Domain connects to hosting server using DNS
Browser shows website
