Internet service provider (ISP)
An Internet service provider (ISP) is any organization through which you can arrange Internet access. This can be an educational institution or employer, but ISPs are typically commercial or community organizations offering broadband or dial-up access, usually along with other services such as web hosting and email.
ISPs range from international services, such as America Online (AOL) and CompuServe, through regional and local services and community-based free networks.
