I want to start an online business. I already have a site, but now I need free web page hosting. It should support e-commerce with merchant account. This should be my first online business so I don't have many experiences in this line of work. What kind of service is web hosting? Which is the best free hosting services? Is there a way for protecting a Web Server from unwanted guests?

Web hosting is a service that hosts your web site. When you are choosing an Internet hosting service for business site, there are things that should be much more important to you then its price. First, you must assure that this hosting service support technologies that were used for manufacturing your web presentation. For example, if your site was made in PHP your hosting service should support PHP etc. Second, you have to calculate how much space you would need for your presentation. You should also check what is their data transfer speed, because nobody would come in your online shop if he needs a couple of minutes just to open the home page. All that should be as much important to you as your ecommerce demands, if you want to build a perspective online business. You should not worry about protecting a web server from unwanted guests. Your provider will do that for you.
