Low-Price Web Hosting Solutions for Your Top-Level Domains
There are two features you demand so as to run a web site. The first one is a domain name that will show your web page when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is primarily the disk storage space on a web server where the site files will be located, plus a few more features that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting package are 2 associated, yet separate solutions, and you demand both of them to have an operational online portal.
What is a Domain Name?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it includes two components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the SLD of the domain to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a finite 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 interval of time between 1 and ten years. They may impose additional requirements in regard to the registrant.
Domain Hosting Services
As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting package where you have to host it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will exhibit the web site files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web page. You can have a domain registered with a certain company and receive the hosting service from another, although many hosting vendors offer both solutions and it is more time-saving to handle everything from one and the same web hosting CP user interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the hosting package are separate services, you have to point the domain to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to alter a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named nameservers. Each host has at least two nameservers - ns1.vaporrave.com and ns2.vaporrave.com, for example. The website hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain name gives you the chance to change the NS records and point the domain name to one hosting company or another.
The Necessity for Reliable website hosting Solutions
As soon as the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting company and is added to their web servers, you will get several web services. The most essential one is that the website files that you have on the web server will now be shown when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to create email mailboxes like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to tackle them. Whether you have a personal or a business website, being online and being able to use mails with your domain name are the two most fundamental things that you get with a web hosting account. In case you administer a corporate web portal – it will single out your business before your visitors or clients. For that reason you require a stable service provider that will offer a dependable and steady hosting service.
