Graphic representing World Wide Web

Your website host is the computer (called a server) where your website lives.  The server makes the content of your site accessible to the Internet.

Your domain name is the internet address people use to reach your site.  The name is registered to you and you own it.

Together, the domain name and website host make it possible for people to visit your website.  Valley Web Studio will look after your domain name registration and website hosting.
No worries!

What About a Hurricane?

The facility that houses our sever was built to withstand hurricanes and other catastrophes.  It obtains emergency power from the airport and hospital power grids, but it also has backup diesel generators.

Service was not disrupted when Hurricane Irma passed through Tampa in September 2017.
