Re: Definition of "Web space"?

In reply to a post by Sandgrounder:
It seems a bit obvious to me, as being 250MB of space on the web. No matter what protocol you use to access it (http, https, ftp, email, etc) and whatever you use it for (website pages, file backup, email, photos, etc)


By definition only HTTP protocols pertain to the " web".

E-mail, Usenet, Bittorrent, $whatever: they all operate over the Internet. Certainly there are some web interfaces to some of those services, but the web itself is an equal peer of e-mail on the Internet.

If you turned-off all the World's web servers today, e-mail would still happily flow along.


This is the crux of the matter although I'm sure this wasn't a deliberate miss selling of services from Uno it was a poor definition although as someone has said writing definitions that are both accurate and non confusing for the masses can be difficult at times..

cPanel and others like it where the multiple protocols are combined is both useful and a hindrance at the same time. I do know someone that had the same issue in the past with another host but I�m struggling to remember the name of the host and therefore can�t look up their definition.
