The short answer is yes. The longer answer is that you can perform the hosting
tasks internally to your organization, but if you do not have a dedicated IT
staff to support your servers and network environment, then you will want to
pay for hosting services.
Hosting comes in many flavors, ranging from shared hosting where you are one of
potentially hundreds of websites using a single server's resources to dedicated
hosting where you are the only user on a server. Most small websites will find
shared hosting to be quite sufficient, while large web businesses or e-commerce
intensive web businesses will find dedicated hosting to be their only
practical option.
