Affordably Priced Hosting Solutions for Your Domains

There are two entities you require so as to own a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your web page when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a website hosting plan, which is primarily the disk space on a hosting server where the web site files will be placed, plus several more features that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 associated, yet different solutions, and you need them both to have a working site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four characters long and it involves two parts – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed spell of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may have additional preconditions with regard to the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting account where you have to host it. In this way, when you type it in a browser, it will show the content that you have in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a certain provider and obtain the hosting service from another, even though a lot of web hosting providers provide both services and it is more time-saving to manage everything from one Control Panel interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to alter a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named name servers. Each web hosting provider has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.website-hosting.info and ns2.website-hosting.info, for instance. The website hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain name gives you the option to alter the name servers and point the domain to one web hosting firm or another.

The Demand for Reliable web hosting Services

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting company and is added to their hosting servers, you will get different web services. The most vital one is that the site files that you have on the server will now be available online when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to create e-mail addresses like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to manage them. Whether you have a personal or a corporate site, being online and being permitted to set up e-mail boxes with your domain name are the two most important options that come with a website hosting package. If you administer a corporate web portal – it will represent your business before your web site visitors or customers. For that reason you require a dependable company that will supply a reliable and stable web hosting service.
