Moderately Priced Hosting Packages for Your Top-Level Domain Names
There are 2 entities you require in order to host a web page. The first one is a domain name that will show your web site when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting plan, which is principally the data storage space on a server where the site files will be placed, plus several more features that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 related, yet different solutions, and you need them both in order to have an operational online portal.
What is a Domain?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to sixty four characters long and it contains two parts – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the TLD. While you can choose the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a certain 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 particular interval of time between one and 10 years. They may impose additional preconditions concerning the registrant.
Domain Web Hosting Services
As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting account where you have to accommodate it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will exhibit the content that you host in the account, in other words it will exhibit your web page. You can have a domain name registered with a specific company and get the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting companies provide both services and it is more convenient to manage all services from one and the same website hosting CP tool. Either way, because the domain registration and the hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain name to the server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each hosting supplier has at least 2 name servers - ns1.iddio.net and ns2.iddio.net, for instance. The hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain name gives you the opportunity to change the nameservers and point the domain name to one web hosting supplier or another.
The Necessity for Reliable Hosting Services
Once the domain is pointed to a concrete domain hosting provider and is added to their web hosting servers, you will receive different web services. The most crucial one is that the web page files that you keep on the web hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up email boxes such as name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or an e-mail client to handle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate site, being available online and being allowed to set up email boxes with your domain are the two most fundamental things that you obtain with a web hosting package. If you have a corporate website – it will identify your business before your web page visitors or customers. For that reason you require a dependable hosting provider that will furnish a fast and stable web hosting solution.
