A web host provides the hardware, software and support to clients who wish to publish content on the internet. Many web hosts will meet the minimum requirements to run PhpGedView, with some specifically advertising that they support PhpGedView. For some, the installation of PhpGedView may be beyond the ability of users who wish to install and use their own PhpGedView powered website. Therefore, some web hosts have included automatic (or "one-click") install scripts, making it very simple to install and setup.

When selecting a hosting solution ensure that they meet all of the installation requirements.
