Web hosting is just simply web space. You need space to host your site data so that people can view it.

Just think about it. You create a website right? So where do you put it? It has to go somewhere, so you need to upload it to the internet.

It's like property, you have a street address, but then you also need land to build a house. Otherwise, you'll have an address, but nowhere space to have a house.

Web hosting services work by storing your website files in high-powered computers (web servers) connected to a very fast network. When someone types in your web address, the Internet connects to the web server holding your website files and then transfers your website information back to their computer.

I'm using fh-net, which stands for Free Hosting Network.However, it's a post-to-host type of free host but in my opinion, it is worth it.

Free web hosting is quite worth depending on the percentage of a year in which the website is publicly accessible and reachable via the internet

Yeah, basically think of it as a home for a website to be on the internet
