Web host
Last modified: Wednesday, October 25, 2006 

A Web host is in the business of providing server space, Web services and file maintenance for Web sites controlled by individuals or companies that do not have their own Web servers.

Other commercial ISPs will charge the user a fee depending on the complexity of the site being hosted.
