Question

Which of the following is a computer that hosts a website on the Internet?

A.

Web page

B.

Web server

C.

Search engine

D.

Web user

Correct option is B

A web server is a computer system that stores, processes, and delivers web pages to users through the Internet. When someone enters a website address into their browser, the browser sends a request to the web server, which then responds with the appropriate webpage content.

Important Key Points:

  1. Web servers run software (like Apache, Nginx, IIS) to manage requests.
  2. They host multiple websites and handle traffic from users.
  3. They communicate using HTTP or HTTPS protocols.

Knowledge Booster:

  • A web page is a document hosted on a web server—it is not the host itself.
  • A search engine is a tool like Google or Bing that helps users find websites—it doesn’t host them.
  • A web user is simply someone who browses the Internet.
