Affordably Priced Web Hosting Packages for Your Domains
There are two items you demand so as to open an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your website when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is essentially the data storage space on a hosting server where the site files will be situated, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 interconnected, yet different services, and you need both of them so as to have an operational web site.
What is a Domain?
A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four characters long and it is composed of 2 components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, 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 is available for registration, there is a finite number of TLDs to choose from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain spell of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may contain more requirements concerning the registrant.
Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions
As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting package where you have to add it. Thus, when you type it in a web browser, it will show the site files that you have in the account, i.e. it will show your website. You can have a domain registered with a certain company and get the hosting service from another, even though a lot of service providers offer both solutions and it is more convenient to administer everything from one single website hosting CP interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you need to modify a certain setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name servers. Each provider has at least 2 name servers - ns1.www.domainsvm.com and ns2.www.domainsvm.com, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain offers you the option to change the name server records and point the domain to one hosting company or another.
The Need of Reliable web hosting Solutions
As soon as the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting company and is added to their web hosting servers, you will get various services. The most essential one is that the site files that you accommodate on the server will now be displayed when you write your domain in a browser. You will also be able to create electronic mail accounts such as [email protected] and use webmail or an email client to handle them. Whether you own a personal or a corporate website, being accessible online and being enabled to use mail address accounts with your domain name are the two most pivotal things that you get with a website hosting account. In case you have a business online portal – it will represent your business before your website visitors or clients. Therefore you need a trustworthy web hosting service provider that will offer a dependable and steady web hosting solution.
