Hosting fieldbook

About Hosting fieldbook.

A practical hosting fieldbook for static pages and modest projects. Understand the moving parts before choosing a plan.

A useful place to begin

Hosting fieldbook explains the moving parts of a small website: files, HTTPS, updates and a workable recovery plan. It is a learning resource, not a hosting provider.

Using this notebook

The worksheet estimates bytes from explicit assumptions. It does not predict CPU capacity, availability, database latency or a bill. No servers are provisioned and no live systems are probed.

Your privacy

Tools run in this browser. Entries are not uploaded, and the pages load no remote fonts, analytics or advertising. Saved choices and checklist states use this browser’s local storage, scoped to this notebook. Clear site data in your browser to remove them. If storage is unavailable, tools still work and choices last only until the page closes.

Downloads are files created in your browser, not files sent to a service. The hosting server may keep ordinary access logs according to its owner’s settings. No accounts, orders or bookings are accepted here.
