What is Web Hosting?
Your business website needs a place to live, and that’s what web hosting provides. It stores your site’s files on a secure server, keeping it fast, safe, and accessible 24/7. Without a reliable web host, your site simply wouldn’t exist online.
While you could technically host a website yourself, it requires expensive equipment, constant maintenance, and serious security measures. A great web host takes care of all that for you, offering speed, uptime, security, and support.
When choosing a hosting provider, look for reliable performance, strong security features, easy-to-use tools, and expert support to keep things running smoothly.

To Build Trust
A website proves your business is real, professional, and here to stay. It reassures customers by giving them a place to learn about your services before reaching out.
To Help People Find You
Most customers start their search online. A solid website and catchy domain name puts you on the map and gives customers an easy way to find and buy from you.
To Tell Your Story
A website is your chance to tell your story through design, photos, and messaging, making your business memorable and bringing customers back.
To Drive Sales & Traffic
A website is both a digital business card and a powerful sales tool. With SEO and quality content, your site can attract new customers and make purchasing effortless.

Business Website FAQs
Any kind you want! Our service includes open-source software for full customization. You’ll start with a Homepage, About Us, and Contact page, then use drag-and-drop tools to add pages, media, and design features. Add videos, images, and customize every detail to match your business’s needs.
A business website connects companies with customers, provides purchasing options, and establishes a clear brand identity. A personal website is typically for a smaller audience, without sales features, and reflects an individual’s voice rather than a business brand. This could look like a portfolio, resume page, or personal blog.
In general, you need a domain name, website hosting, and a website building platform to create a website. Northwest’s business website service provides all three—for just $9 a month!
Absolutely. We’ll help you communicate better with your customers with up to 10 business email addresses. For example, if your website was martinspugshoppe.com, you could set up info@martinspugshoppe.com, support@martinspugshoppe.com, or Mary@martinspugshoppe.com. If you’re looking to learn more, check out our business email offerings.
Yes, our hosting plans and dashboard fully support domains registered elsewhere. And, if you start out hosting with us and decide to transfer your website to another provider later, we make it simple to make the switch.
A domain name is your website’s address (like martinspugshoppe.com), while a website is the collection of pages, content, and files that people see when they visit that address.
If you are using your domain name like your business name, than yes you should get a DBA for your domain name. For example, if your domain name is pattyspies.pizza and you operate a food truck called Patty’s Pies, then you should get a DBA for your business and domain name.
However, if your domain name is pattyspies.pizza and you don’t use that name at all in any marketing material or on your products, then you don’t have to register it as a DBA.
