Rajeev Kumar · Answer

Web hosting is an online service that allows you to publish your website files onto the internet . So, anyone who has access to the internet has access to your website. In practice, it usually refers to the service you get from a web hosting provider like one.com. Deploying a website means that you are deploying changes you have made to your website, typically code, from source control to an environment (typically development, staging, or live) . Publishing is a process of creating All the files related to your Website. Which means all the files needed to run the website will be compiled including source-codes.

Doing a quick search for each terms at google/bing will give you the answer you need. Publishing is a process of creating pre-compiled dll's. Which means all the files needed to run the website will be compiled including source-codes. Deployment is the process of deploying the pre-compiled dll's to web server (IIS/Apache). Technically, after publishing your next move is to deploy your website locally or in public facing address. Hosting is similar to the process of deployment but i refer it as deploying your website in public facing address where you can access it on the internet. Hope that clear things out. :)
