Web hosting is the service provided by an ISP (web host) to publish your web pages on the internet.
A Web Hosting Company will make your web pages available on the
Internet via a web server which is permanently connected to the
Internet.
This server will also store all your
incoming mail until you retrieve it on your
system.
The role of your ISP is to maintain the web server, keep it secure
(protect your site from malicious damage or viruses), keep it online on
the internet & to provide you with technical support and advice.
