   • video.
   • These content require space (storage).

   • Must be available 24/7

   • Web Server
   • A Web server is a computer
   • that delivers requested Web
   • pages to your computer
5. Web site (or website)
   • A collection of interlinked web pages with a related topic, usually under a single domain name , which includes an intended starting file called a " home page ".  From the home page, you can get to all the other pages on the website.
6. Domain name
   • The unique name which identifies an Internet website . Domain names have two or more parts, separated by periods .
   • Example:
   • pecamp.org
   • kuis.edu.my
   • blogspot.com
   • kerul.blogspot.com (this is sub-domain)
7. Renting a Web Space
   • With the proliferation of free web server accounts offered on the web or with ISP internet access, clients new to the web often wonder why one should pay extra for the commodity.
   • When considering where to host your website, you generally have four choices depending on your needs and resources.
   • Rent shared server space
   • Lease a server
   • Host your own server
   • Free web hosting
8. 1) Rent Shared Server Space
   • The cheapest option, you pay a small monthly fee and get some server space on a hosting network servicing
   • 10 - 100 other accounts. Everyone has their own domain name and a virtual IP address, but the headache of keeping the server working 24/7 is left to the expert at your hosting network.

9. 2) Leasing a Server
   • For sites with major league hits or desiring more server CPU speed (for lots of audio/video streaming, real time chat, etc.),
   • you can lease a server from a hosting company.
   • Leased servers are dedicated just to your site and maintained 24/7 by qualified network engineers at your hosting network center.

    • No cost
    • No service warranty / guarantee
    • Normally comes with advertisement
    • Limited space
11. 4) Host Your Own Server
    • Requires some technical skill and the desire to handle all the headaches of keeping your website working,
    • it is possible to host your own web server.
    • Via a DSL or CableModem connection,
    • Best if you have fixed IP address (dynamic IP also possible).
    • PCs can easily be turned into web servers.
    • This option does require a two-way broadband connection (upload and download speeds are equivalent).
    • Everything concerning the web server becomes your responsibility - especially network security.
