Although having a site is typically defined as simply uploading files to a server and linking a domain to them, in reality a whole set of services lies under any site that you see on the world-wide web. Just a couple examples would be the opportunity to create and handle databases or email addresses, to access your files via FTP, to check out site visitor stats and to handle a number of domain records. All of these things contributes to your online presence in one way or another and if any of them is lacking or is hard to control, the overall management of your site may become frustrating. In this light, it is very important to not only have total control of your Internet hosting space and domains, but also to be able to manage them without difficulty.
