Cheap Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domains

There are 2 entities you demand in order to set up 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 second one is a web hosting package, which is primarily the hard 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 and the web hosting package are 2 connected, yet separate services, and you need them both so as to have an operational online portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the 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 components – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a fixed number of top-level domain names to pick from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain interval of time between one and ten yrs. They may have more requirements when it comes to the registrant.

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting package where you have to include it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will display the web site files that you host in the account, i.e. it will open your site. You can have a domain name registered with a certain provider and receive the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting corporations offer both solutions and it is more time-saving to administer all services from one web hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, since the domain registration and the website hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to modify a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named nameservers. Each web hosting distributor has at least two name servers - ns1.highdeserthosting.com and ns2.highdeserthosting.com, for example. The Control Panel that you utilize for your domain name gives you the opportunity to modify the name servers and point the domain name to one web hosting service provider or another.

The Need of Trustworthy website hosting Solutions

The moment the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting provider and is added to their servers, you will obtain several web services. The most crucial one is that the web page files that you have on the web server will now be displayed when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to create e-mail accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an e-mail client to handle them. Whether you administer a personal or a corporate web site, being available online and being permitted to create emails with your domain name are the two most important options that you obtain with a web hosting plan. If you run a business online portal – it will single out your business before your visitors or customers. This is the reason why you demand a reliable web hosting distributor that will deliver a dependable and steady web hosting service.
