web hosting
Web hosting is an online storage service for information, images, video, or any content accessible through the Web. Your web site content will be stored on powerful web servers (fast computers) that run 24/7 ensuring that your web site is always available on the Internet for people to see. Web Servers are also used to handle your email.
Handcoded offer a selection of web hosting packages to suit any business from hobby sites to large E-commerce sites with hundreds of visitors per day. Our servers are rented from a company called The Planet who are one of the largest providers of web hosting in the World.
