Ans.
@WEBSITE :- A website is a collection of related web-pages, images, videos or other digital assets that are hosted on one web server; usually assessable via the Internet.

@HOMEPAGE :- The main page of a Web site. Typically, the home page serves as an index or table of contents to other documents stored at the site.


@WEB-PAGE :- A block of data available on the {World-Wide Web}, identified by a {URL}. In the simplest, most
common case, a web page is a file written in {HTML}, stored on the {server}. It may refer to {images}
which appear as part of the page when it is displayed by a {web browser}. It is also possible for the
server to generate pages dynamically in response to a request, e.g. using a {CGI} script. A web page
can be in any format that the browser or a {helper application} can display. The format is transmitted
as part of the headers of the response as a {MIME} type, e.g. "text/html", "image/gif". An HTML web
page will typically refer to other web pages and {Internet} resources by including {hypertext} links. A
{web site} often has a {home page} (usually just the host-name, e.g. http://www.foldoc.org/). It may
also have individual home pages for each user with an account at the site. (1999-03-21)

@WEB HOST :- A web host is where your web site is stored so that when someone types in your domain name your
website appears on their computer.
