2. Hosting - Hosting or storage is where your materials for example images, creatives, videos, text, and more are stored on the net. This makes your website and materials are accessible 24/7. There are a few types of hosting as well as software to manage hosting services, for example the cPanel.

4. Content - Or pages on your website. They are very important that when someone visits your website, they can quickly understand who you are, what you do, or what you offer. Content can as well describe what your website has and shows from time to time, for example posts (blog) on your website.
