Although having a site is typically described as simply uploading files to a web server and linking a domain to them, the truth is an entire set of services lies under any site which you see online. A few examples would be the chance to create and handle databases or email addresses, to access your files through FTP, to check on site visitor statistics and to control a number of domain records. Each one of these things contributes to your online presence in one way or another and if any of them is absent or is hard to control, the overall management of your site may become frustrating. In this light, it is important to not only have full control of your hosting space and domains, but also to be able to manage them easily.
