To get started with web hosting, follow these steps:

• Choose a web hosting provider and select a hosting plan.
• Register a domain name if you don't already have one.

Web hosting plans differ in several ways:

Compare your website's needs with the features offered to choose the right plan.

• Shared Hosting: Ideal for small to medium-sized websites with low to moderate traffic.
• VPS Hosting: Suitable for medium-sized websites with moderate to high traffic.
