Cheap Hosting Plans for Your TLDs

There are 2 things you demand in order to own a web site. The first one is a domain name that will show your web portal when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting account, which is principally the disk space on a hosting server where the website files will be situated, plus several more services that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 connected, yet separate services, and you require both of them so as to have a running web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it contains two parts – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the SLD of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given stretch of time between one and 10 years. They may contain more stipulations in relation to the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a hosting plan where you have to accommodate it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will show the web content that you host in the account, i.e. it will open your web page. You can have a domain registered with a specific registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, although lots of web hosting vendors offer both services and it is more convenient to manage all services from one and the same web hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the web hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to alter a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each hosting provider has at least two nameservers - ns1.hostingam.com and ns2.hostingam.com, for instance. The website hosting CP that you have for your domain offers you the chance to modify the NS records and point the domain name to one hosting vendor or another.

The Necessity for Stable web hosting Services

As soon as the domain is pointed to a particular domain hosting firm and is added to their web hosting servers, you will get various services. The most vital one is that the web page files that you keep on the server will now be exhibited when you write your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to set up mails like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail user agent to tackle them. Whether you administer a personal or a corporate online portal, being available online and being enabled to use email boxes with your domain are the two most pivotal options that come with a web hosting account. In case you run a corporate web page – it will represent your business before your web site visitors or customers. That is why you require a trustworthy host that will provide a fast and steady web hosting solution.
