Hosted images refer to digital images that are stored and served from a remote server or hosting platform, rather than being stored on the user’s own device. This allows for easy access and sharing of images across different devices and platforms, without taking up storage space. Hosted images are commonly used on websites, blogs, and social media platforms, and can be accessed by simply embedding a link or code. They also offer the advantage of being easily updated or replaced, making them a convenient and efficient option for displaying visual content online.
