I know that Web hosting providers don't just sell space on their servers. So I want to know what other services they can offer. Thanks!

Normally, Web Hosting companies offers the following services:
1. Website Builders- This is a type of hosting service that caters to beginners who need to host a website, but lack the technical skills and knowledge to build one. Website builder services typically provide you with an online browser-based interface to build your website, and also host the website for you without any additional setup.
2. Shared Hosting - This is a type of hosting wherein your and other website owners shared one server. One advantage is that this type of service is affordable however, since the server is being shared to end-users, it is slower.
3. Dedicated Hosting - This type of web hosting service is most ideal since the entire server is exclusive to yourself. What this means is that, it allows for faster performance, as you have all the server's resources entirely, without sharing with other website owners.
4. Collocated Hosting is a type of web hosting service in which you will purchase your own server and have it housed at a web host's facilities. You will be responsible for the server itself. The advantage of this type of hosting service is you have full control of the web server.

Hi @himitsu. What is the purpose of this question - to have a list of services provided by web hosts to their customers or or increase your knowledge on a conceptual level?

As web hosting providers manage IT infrastructure which is connected to internet, they can offers various services related to hosting websites and applications. In fact, any web host would host various information technology workloads for its customers these days. One could use a remote personal computer (also called a Cloud PC) as a service delivered from any web hosting provider. It is not about websites and email anymore.!

Most web hosting providers usually have various tools for the kind of web site that you wanted to create. For example, if you want to run an online store web site, then the web hosting could provide you a shopping cart builder or ssl certificates if you wanted to accept payments through credit cards. There are many tools a web hosting can give you, like gallery tool, blogging tool, messaging tools, tools for email capabilities, and even as far as having an online web building software where you can just edit it in a what you see what you get fashion.
