What is Web hosting?
Web hosting is the technology of placing web pages on a web server for access through a web browser. Web pages can further connect to a database to serve dynamic content or provide dynamic functionality like registration and login capabilities on a website.
A web server has capabilities to connect web pages and a web address. A web address can be an IP or a domain name. Most websites utilize a domain name that points to a shared IP address.
A web server allows a single IP address to be shared to more than 100000 websites. Each website requires a unique domain name pointed to the shared IP address using the domain name management system. The IP address, in this case, is referred to as an A Record.
What is an A Record?
A record refers to an IP address of a web server. It is basically the unique identity or address of a Web server computer.
For a website to be accessible online via a web browser, the website domain name need to be pointed to an A record.
What is Domain Forwarding/Alias Domain Name
Multiple domain names can point to the same website or set of web pages – to point additional domain names to an existing website also known as domain forwarding or alias domain name may require the use of a CNAME.
Domain forwarding, therefore, refers to pointing one domain name to another domain name.
What is a CNAME?
CNAME refers to a canonical name in the domain name management system, allows redirecting a hostname to another hostname e.g. pointing of domain name or subdomain to another subdomain or domain name.

Types Of Web Hosting
There are different types of web hosting in Nigeria. The most common type is shared hosting, which is when a website is hosted on a server with other websites. This is the cheapest and most popular option, but it also has the least amount of resources. If your website experiences a lot of traffic, you might need to upgrade to a VPS or dedicated server. A VPS (virtual private server) is a server that’s divided into separate virtual servers, while a dedicated server is a single physical server that’s reserved for your use.
How do I host a website in Nigeria?
There are a few steps you need to take in order to host a website in Nigeria. The first step is to find a web hosting company that is based in Nigeria. Next, you need to purchase a domain name and set up an account with the web hosting company. Once you have set up your account, you will need to upload your website files to the web hosting server. You can then test your website by visiting it from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the internet. If everything looks good, you can publicize your website by sharing the URL with your friends and family members.
What is WordPress Hosting?
WordPress is a content management system (CMS) that enables you to create a website or blog from scratch or to improve an existing website. WordPress is free and open source software released under the GPL. A large and ever-growing community of developers and users make sure that WordPress is constantly evolving and improving.
WordPress hosting is a type of web hosting service that enables you to host your website on the same server as other WordPress websites. This can be helpful if you want to use plugins or themes that are only available for WordPress, or if you want to take advantage of the speed and security benefits that come with using WordPress.
What is the difference between Shared vs WordPress Hosting?
When it comes to website hosting, there are two main types of services: shared and WordPress. Shared hosting is a more economical option for small businesses or personal websites, as the site is placed on a server with several other sites. This type of hosting is usually sufficient for low-traffic sites. WordPress hosting, on the other hand, is designed specifically for WordPress sites and offers features that are not available with shared hosting plans. These features may include automatic updates, one-click installation of themes and plugins, and access to expert support. For businesses that rely heavily on their website for online sales or marketing, a WordPress host is the best option.
What is the difference between Shared vs VPS Hosting?
Shared hosting is a type of web hosting in which the hosting company houses multiple websites on a single server. This type of hosting is typically cheaper than VPS hosting but comes with fewer features.
VPS (virtual private server) hosting is a type of web hosting in which the hosting company houses one or more websites on a single server. This type of hosting is typically more expensive than shared hosting but comes with more features.
