Every website that you visit consists of a domain name and a web host. The easiest way to picture it is to think of the domain name as the address and the hosting as the physical building. When you’re browsing the web and you type in a URL (i.e. http://www.Divinehost.us), your web browser basically queries that domain name (i.e. divinehost.us) and asks it where the website is hosted. The browser then loads up the contents that are stored there. Hosting is effectively the process of using a server to host a website, and there are all sorts of different types of hosting available out there on the market. DivineHost, just like most web hosts offers different packages so that their customers can pay for just the resources that they need. The more popular the website is, the more resources it’s likely to need to function effectively. The good news is that with Divine Host, you can scale your hosting package as and when you need it, so you can start off with Single hosting plan and gradually upgrade to Business or even VPS plan later.

Your website is basically a collection of files and (in most cases) database that are served up to your visitors as they browse around it. DivineHost will allocate space for you to store your website and database. When you sign up Divine Host, you’ll receive login details to access your hosting account’s admin panel. At Divine Host, we offer custom built hosting control panel. Using our control panel you can carry out basic hosting management, monitor resource usage, create email addresses and install content management systems (CMSs) like WordPress. Note that this is different to the admin panel for your website, which will be created when you install a CMS. This is the admin panel for your server as a whole.

That depends - what kind of website do you have? And what’s your budget? As a general rule, shared hosting is the best place to start, and Divine Host’s hosting is suitable for almost any kind of website. Our hosting helps you to keep the costs down during the early days of your website while allowing you to pay only for the resources that you need. If your website starts to take off, you can easily upgrade to higher tier plan and pick up some extra resources. Ultimately, every website is different. If you’re not sure, why not get in touch with our team so we can chat it through with you and make a personalized suggestion based on your needs?

An SSL certificate is a small data file that uses a cryptographic key to digitally tie your company’s identity with the files that are stored on your webserver. The idea is to prove the identity of the publisher of a webpage and to reduce the likelihood of a visitor accessing sensitive areas of a website without the appropriate security. When a website has been secured with an SSL certificate, a visitor will see a padlock icon in their web browser and they’ll be connected to the site using the https:// protocol. With the SSL certificate in place and the user accessing the site through https, the connection between the browser and the web server has been secured and sensitive information can safely be transferred. That’s why people use SSL certificates on e-commerce websites and other types of website that process credit card transactions and other financial information. We offer free SSL certificates with Business hosting plans.
