Cheap Web Hosting Plans for Your TLDs

There are two features you require in order to set up an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your web portal when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a website hosting account, which is basically the disk storage space on a web hosting server where the website files will be situated, plus a few more services that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 connected, yet different solutions, and you demand them both in order to have a running web page.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it is composed of 2 constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the Second-Level Domain of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a finite number of TLDs to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain stretch of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may involve other specifications with respect to the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting account where you have to add it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will open the web page files that you host in the account, i.e. it will show your online portal. You can have a domain registered with a certain company and get the hosting service from another, although lots of hosting companies offer both solutions and it is more time-saving to handle everything from one single Control Panel interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the website hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called name servers. Each company has at least two name servers - ns1.www.ns123.eu and ns2.www.ns123.eu, for example. The web hosting CP that you have for your domain name gives you the possibility to modify the NS records and point the domain name to one hosting provider or another.

The Need of Trustworthy Hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a concrete domain hosting corporation and is added to their servers, you will receive a number of web services. The most vital one is that the site files that you keep on the hosting server will now be accessible when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to create emails like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail client to manage them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate site, being accessible online and being allowed to set up e-mails with your domain are the two most pivotal things that come with a web hosting account. If you own a business online portal – it will identify your business before your website visitors or customers. That's why you require a stable hosting service provider that will deliver a fast and stable website hosting solution.
