Cheap Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 things you require in order to establish a web site. 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 website hosting plan, which is basically the hard disk storage space on a hosting server where the web page files will be placed, plus several more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting package are 2 related, yet different solutions, and you need them both in order to have a working site.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the web address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it involves 2 components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the TLD. While you can choose the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that is available for registration, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to choose from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular spell of time between one and ten years. They may contain more prerequisites regarding the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting plan where you have to host it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will show the web site files that you host in the account, in other words it will display your site. You can have a domain registered with a specific company and get the hosting service from another, although lots of web hosting vendors provide both services and it is more user-friendly to administer everything from one and the same web hosting CP user interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the web hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to modify a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called name server records. Each web hosting firm has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.www.globalnet-marketing.net and ns2.www.globalnet-marketing.net, for instance. The hosting CP that you have for your domain offers you the opportunity to modify the name servers and point the domain name to one web hosting supplier or another.

The Need of Trustworthy website hosting Services

Once the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting vendor and is added to their servers, you will receive several web services. The most important one is that the web site files that you accommodate on the hosting server will now be available online when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up email boxes like name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail client to tackle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate website, being accessible online and being enabled to use mailbox accounts with your domain name are the two most significant options that you receive with a web hosting account. In case you have a corporate web page – it will single out your business before your website visitors or clients. Therefore you need a reliable hosting provider that will furnish a reliable and steady web hosting solution.
