Web Hosting Tutorials (Start)

When we write a website address in the browser and have an Internet connection, the browser processes the address and sends it to a server. The server then sends the specified page to the browser according to the request and we see the page. So if this server is ever turned off and a user sends a request at that time, the user will see that the site is not working.

You need to get a server that will be ready for 24 hours because your site can have millions of visitors and you don’t know when to enter your site (or send a request for your site). The time a server is ready is the time of the server’s uptime.
