A Web Server is a special computer that holds all the data that makes up a website. When someone asks for that data (enters the website address) their computer serves the data (thus the name Web Server). For your website to be accessible to the rest of the world, the data that makes up your website must be stored on, and served by a Web Server. This is known as Web Hosting.
