The Services Scope of a Web Hosting Service

The scope of hosting services provided by a web hosting service can be very different from one web hosting service provider to another. A basic web hosting service will provide a web page and small-sized file hosting as part of its managed hosting service. This type of web hosting service will allow a person to upload files through a Web interface or File Transfer Protocol (FTP), and there is little processing involved on behalf of the web hosting service. Since the web hosting service does not do much in terms of services, it is typically a free service offered by web hosting service providers.

A web hosting service, however, will typically charge a business more for their website hosting services because of the complexity that is usually involved in terms of needing database support or using application development platforms, such as Java and ASP.net. In this case, services from the web hosting service will involve the use of scripts, e-commerce applications, or an interface or control panel, depending on what the web hosting service can handle.
