Web Hosting services
Webspace
Webspace is where your web pages and the items associated with them such as images and sounds are stored.The bigger your website the more space it needs.
Bandwidth/Data transfer
Every time someone visits your website they will use some of your data transfer allowance. For example if one of your web pages is 10 kilobytes in size (KB) and the images that are on that page are 90 KB then if someone visits your page they will use 100 KB of data. Your data transfer allowance is in megabytes (MB), there are 1024 KB in 1 MB.
Sub domains
Sub domains allow you to have a new web address for separate areas of your website, for example you could have support.yourdomain.co.uk and point this at your yourdomain.co.uk/support/ directory. You can use sub domains in conjunction with additional FTP accounts, creating in effect simple hosting accounts with a sub domain and an additional FTP account.
Additional FTP accounts
Additional FTP accounts are most commonly used to give others access to an account for the purpose of sharing a web development project - without giving them control over the entire website. By restricting their access to their home directory, you can ensure they can only modify files within this particular space.
