What is Web Hosting and How It Works

Yes, domain and hosting are two different things. The domain is your site's address (e.g. yourcompany.com), and hosting is the space on the server where your site files live. You need both for the site to work. Think of the domain as the house address and hosting as the apartment where you put the furniture (the site content).

Web hosting prices in Serbia range from about 300 to 3,000 dinars per month, depending on type and resources. BeoHosting shared hosting packages start at very affordable rates and include free SSL, email accounts and cPanel. For most small and medium sites, the Start or Standard package is enough.

Shared hosting is like living in an apartment building — you share server resources with other users, which is cheaper but with limited resources. VPS hosting is like an apartment with a separate entrance — you have guaranteed resources (RAM, CPU) that no one else shares, meaning better performance but a higher price.

Yes, you can change hosting providers at any time. The process is called site migration and includes transferring files, database and email accounts to the new server. BeoHosting offers free migration for all new customers — our team will move your site with no interruption.

If your site gets more visitors or you need more space, you can simply upgrade to a larger package. With BeoHosting, the upgrade happens without site downtime and takes only minutes. Start with a smaller package and scale as needed.
