Understanding the Basics

Essential Web Hosting Terms Explained

Before diving into why dplooy matters, let's understand the fundamental concepts of web hosting and deployment in simple, clear terms.

What is Deployment?

Deployment is the process of making your website or application available on the internet. Think of it as moving from your computer (where you built it) to a server (where everyone can access it). It's like publishing a book—you've written it, now you need to make it available for people to read.

Traditional deployment involves:

• Setting up a server environment
• Configuring databases and services
• Uploading files via FTP or Git
• Testing and debugging

With dplooy: Just drag and drop—we handle everything else in 60 seconds.

What is Web Hosting?

Web hosting is a service that stores your website files on servers connected to the internet, making them accessible to anyone with a web browser. It's like renting space in a building where your store (website) operates 24/7, allowing customers (visitors) to come in anytime.

Types of web hosting:

• Shared Hosting: Multiple websites share one server
• VPS Hosting: Virtual private server with dedicated resources
• Dedicated Hosting: Entire server for one website
• Cloud Hosting: Distributed across multiple servers
• Static Hosting: For websites without server-side processing

dplooy offers: Cloud-based static hosting with global CDN distribution.

What is Drag and Drop?

Drag and drop is a user interface method where you click on a file, hold down the mouse button, move it to a new location, and release. In web hosting context, it eliminates the need for complex upload processes, command lines, or FTP clients. It's as simple as moving files on your desktop.

Benefits of drag and drop hosting:

• No technical knowledge required
• Instant visual feedback
• Works with any file type
• Familiar interaction pattern
• Reduces errors and complexity

With dplooy: Drag files directly into your browser—no software needed.

What is File Sharing?

File sharing in web hosting context means making files available for others to access or download via the internet. This includes documents (PDFs, Word files), images, videos, ZIP archives, or any digital content. It's like having a public folder that anyone with the link can access.

Common file sharing uses:

• Sharing documents with clients or teams
• Distributing downloadable resources
• Hosting media files (images, videos)
• Providing software or app downloads
• Creating resource libraries

dplooy enables: Instant file sharing with custom URLs and optional password protection.

What is Multi-File Web Hosting?

Multi-file web hosting allows you to host complete websites with multiple interconnected files. This includes your HTML pages, CSS stylesheets, JavaScript files, and images all working together. It's perfect for real-world websites that need styling, interactivity, and media assets.

How dplooy's multi-file hosting works:

• Upload your main HTML file first
• We analyze it to find all linked files (CSS, JS, images)
• Upload each referenced file step by step
• Files maintain their proper relationships and paths
• Your complete website goes live with all assets working

Perfect for: Complete websites, portfolios with styling, interactive landing pages.

What is Single HTML File Hosting?

Single HTML file hosting is the simplest form of web hosting where one self-contained HTML file includes all the content, styling (CSS), and functionality (JavaScript) needed for a complete webpage. It's perfect for landing pages, resumes, or simple informational sites.

Single HTML file advantages:

• Extremely fast loading times
• No dependencies to manage
• Easy to share and distribute
• Works offline once downloaded
• Perfect for simple projects
