Les véritables entreprises d'hébergement Web ressemblent aux fournisseurs de service Internet puisqu'elles offrent aussi des serveurs branchés à Internet. Cependant, les hébergeurs Web de qualité investissent dans des serveurs plus puissants et plus rapides ainsi que dans des connexions Internet plus directes. Un hébergeur Web est susceptible d'offrir d'autres caractéristiques spéciales qu'un fournisseur de services Internet ne peut fournir, comme par exemple des serveurs commerciaux dédiés qui offrent une protection supplémentaire lors des transactions en ligne. 3, record 1, French, - fournisseur%20de%20services%20d%27h%C3%A9bergement
