Cheap Web Hosting Packages for Your Domain Names

There are two entities you demand in order to establish a web page. The first one is a domain name that will show your site when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is fundamentally the disk space on a web hosting server where the site files will be located, plus several more features that come with it. The domain and the web hosting plan are two associated, yet separate services, and you require them both in order to have an operational website.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it consists of two constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above illustration, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a set 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 fixed span of time between one and 10 yrs. They may entail additional preconditions when it comes to the registrant.

Domain Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting package where you have to add it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will open the web site 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 receive the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting distributors provide both solutions and it is more time-saving to handle all services from one website hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to change a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called nameservers. Each host has at least 2 name servers - ns1.besterhost.com and ns2.besterhost.com, for instance. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain name gives you the opportunity to modify the NS records and point the domain name to one web hosting vendor or another.

The Necessity for Dependable web hosting Services

The moment the domain name is pointed to a specific domain hosting company and is added to their web servers, you will receive different services. The most vital one is that the web page files that you host on the server will now be available online when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to set up e-mails like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to manage them. Whether you have a personal or a business website, being available online and being allowed to set up email mailbox accounts with your domain are the two most important things that you get with a web hosting account. In case you own a corporate web site – it will identify your business before your web site visitors or customers. For that reason you require a dependable hosting corporation that will provide a dependable and steady web hosting solution.
