If you ever wonder how it’s possible for servers to take requests for many domains and know which one to serve up, this article is for you. The secret is in a mandatory HTTP header field and it’s actually quite simple.

QUOTE (Everick @ Jan 26 2006, 08:56 PM)

The information was very useful in helping me to understand what Web Hosting is all about. This is all very new to me and I am not sure how to proceed or even if I am doing the right thing. Perhaps I should explain my situation.

I am an independent associate marketing legal expense plans. I currently have a Web Site hosted by the parent company (I think) of which I am a member and an indenpendent associate. I am afraid that my web site as it is currently set up, is not seen by anyone unless I personally give them the web address. I would like that if someone did a Google search for Legal Expense Plans that my site would have a fair shot at coming up on the search, or that my page may be linked from another web site. My question is, does Web Hosting solve my problem, or would I be paying for something that I don't really need.

Thank you

If you're web site is hosted.... Then you have web hosting.
