Building a website – the pieces of the puzzle

In very simple terms a website needs three different pieces to work and be accessible by the public.

Design: The website files need to be created and maintained. The designer must take all of the content (pics, text, logo, forms, shopping cart, etc) and put together a custom, modern, easy to navigate website using all of the current tools available. Professionals with years of experience, like the ones here at EquineSite.com, have the knowledge and creativity to create a website that keeps up with today’s technology.

Hosting: Once the website files are created they need to physically reside on a computer/server that provides the connection to the internet. EquineSite.com’s state-of-the-art server is located in a secure, temperature controlled data center facility with full UPS (uninterrupted power source) and generator backup. Our network service provider maintains 24 x 7 monitoring with full backup maintenance, with less than 1% downtime.

Domain Registration: Internet user’s need to find your website through a name http://www.myname.com. The domain name has settings that are configured to point to the server where your files are located. All domain names must be purchased/registered through a domain registrar. EquineSite.com can find and register the domain name you want for your business.

In the end all three pieces are all necessary for any website. If you were to think of it in terms of how the parts flow; an internet user types in the domain name which then points to the hosting server that contains the files created during the design.

You can go to three different companies to put the pieces of the puzzle together, or you can trust the professionals here at EquineSite.com to guide you through all aspects of the process. EquineSite has been the business of creating, maintaining and hosting websites for over 10 years. Go with the logical choice, EquineSite.com.
