Web hosting looks very different today than it did 20 years ago. In 1991, when "www" was first released to the public, you needed to purchase and manage your own computer or server to host a website. Today, you can find basic web hosting services from thousands of hosting providers for less than the cost of a week's worth of coffee. Remember when names like GeoCites, Angelfire and Tripod actually mean't something?
