Cheap Web Hosting Packages for Your Domains

There are two things you require so as to launch a website. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your online portal when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a website hosting package, which is primarily the hard disk storage space on a web hosting server where the web page files will be placed, plus several more services that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting plan are two associated, yet separate services, and you demand both of them to have an operational web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it is composed of two pieces – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the TLD. While you can pick the Second-Level Domain of the domain to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a certain number of top-level domain names to select from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain span of time between one and 10 years. They may include more stipulations concerning the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting plan where you have to host it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will display the web site files that you have in the account, i.e. it will display your online portal. You can have a domain name registered with a certain registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, although many service providers provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to administer everything from one and the same web hosting CP tool. Either way, because the domain registration and the web hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to alter a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called NS records. Each web hosting distributor has at least 2 name servers - ns1.wpsitehosting.com and ns2.wpsitehosting.com, for example. The hosting CP that you have for your domain name offers you the possibility to alter the NS records and point the domain to one hosting distributor or another.

The Demand for Reliable website hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting supplier and is added to their web servers, you will receive different services. The most crucial one is that the web site files that you have on the web server will now be exhibited when you write your domain in a browser. You will also be able to create e-mail boxes like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or a mail client to handle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate online portal, being online and being allowed to set up email address accounts with your domain are the two most essential things that you get with a website hosting account. If you own a corporate web page – it will single out your business before your web page visitors or clients. That is why you need a dependable web hosting vendor that will supply a reliable and steady web hosting solution.
