The role of a host, what is a web host, helps with the design

The purpose of this guide is to explain what a web host is and what its role is.

A web host (or internet host) is an entity which aims to provide Internet users with websites designed and managed by third parties (Wikipedia, July 2015).

As Web and Email host, Infomaniak's main activities are installing, securing, and updating servers to protect them from malicious attacks. We also take care to constantly improve our web interfaces (the Admin Console)and infrastructures based on customer feedback, the latest technologies, and market needs. Finally, we are also here to support our customers in the various stages of using our products.

However, we do not intervene in the content of servers or developing websites. Indeed, the creation or maintenance of a website is a different trade, although it is related to our business because we offer the tools and services that a webmaster uses to create websites.

As a hosting service provider, we give you the information relating to the server which hosts your pages but we do not do any site design.

Our business is website hosting. Design is an entirely separate business and we can not assume both roles.

You can also contact one of our partners who are actually specialists in website creation and who work with us for hosting https://www.infomaniak.com/fr/creer-un-site/professionnel/presentation

Infomaniak is also a registrar (registration office) and we offer most of the domain extensions at attractive prices (to find out more).
