Web Hosting Explained
When you use a web browser to view a website, it is similar like using Word to view a document. The browser does the actual work of displaying the page, while the web page itself contains specific information that determines how it looks.
When you type an Internet address into your browser, it looks for that page on the Internet. If the page you want is found, it will then download the specific information from that page and then display it in your browser.
Your browser is able to find websites located all over the world because there is a table of Internet addresses that is maintained by an Internet governing group called InterNIC. This table is updated every day and released into the Internet. When your browser looks for a website, first it will lookup the address in InterNIC's table of addresses.
As far as your browser is concerned, the address can be almost as complicated as you want to make it. It can be very long, and contain # pound signs, % percent signs and other characters that would make the address difficult for humans to use. But since the browser is a computer, it doesn't care.
On the other hand, it's not so easy for people to use a complicated address. This is why many companies choose a simple name for their Internet address. This is exactly why we chose the name "kay-net.com" instead of "Time Link Unlimited - INTERNET - ACCESS.NET".
To register a domain name, first you have to find a name that is not in use. See Registering A Domain Name for tips on how to do that. The cost is currently $70 for two years, none of which goes to kay-net.com. The entire amount is payable to Network Solutions, which is in no way affiliated with kay-net.com.
Next, you have to find hard drive space on a computer that is always attached to the Internet. This is also known as "server space". Using our Web Hosting, you get 10MB, 30MB or 50MB of server space, depending on the package.
Next, you have to let InterNIC know where your website is so they can associate your domain name with your server space. When you host a Web at kay-net.com we'll help you take care of that part.
Finally, you need to create your website and copy it to your server space. We'll also give you instructions on how to copy more web pages to your server space.
Web Hosting is NOT the same as your Personal web space. With our Web Hosting packages, you'll receive additional server space that you can use to upload web pages. Your visitors will be able to access your Web Hosted website by typing in your domain name. You'll also be able to use your own personalized e-mail names@your-domain-name.com
Here's the difference...
Personal web space
members.kay-net.com/kay-netMemberName
Domain Hosted web space
www.Your-Domain-Name.com
You'll also receive a 3 megabyte e-mailbox with multiple e-mail aliases so that you can use:
Sales@Your-Domain-Name.com
Service@Your-Domain-Name.com
Your-Name@Your-Domain-Name.com
Other-Names@Your-Domain-Name.com
