Low-Priced Web Hosting Solutions for Your Domain Names
There are two entities you need so as to host a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your web portal when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting plan, which is essentially the disk storage space on a server where the site files will be placed, plus a few more features that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting account are two similar, yet different services, and you demand them both so as to have a running online portal.
What is a Domain Name?
We offer more than 160 tlds
A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the web address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it includes 2 components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can pick the Second-Level Domain of the domain to be anything that is open for registration, there is a finite number of Top-Level Domains to choose from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given span of time between one and 10 years. They may contain additional stipulations about the registrant.
Domain Hosting Solutions
As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you need a website hosting package where you have to host it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will display the web site files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a given company and receive the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting suppliers provide both services and it is more convenient to handle all services from one website hosting CP GUI. Either way, because the domain registration and the website hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to alter a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named name servers. Each hosting corporation has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.8plus1.org and ns2.8plus1.org, for instance. The web hosting CP that you utilize for your domain name offers you the possibility to alter the NS records and point the domain to one service provider or another.
The Need of Dependable web hosting Services
The moment the domain name is pointed to a concrete domain hosting company and is added to their web hosting servers, you will get a number of online services. The most important one is that the website files that you host on the server will now be displayed when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to establish mails such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an email client to manage them. Whether you run a personal or a corporate site, being accessible online and being permitted to use e-mail address accounts with your domain name are the two most fundamental things that you get with a web hosting package. If you have a business site – it will identify your business before your website visitors or customers. That's why you require a reliable web hosting firm that will provide a fast and stable website hosting solution.
