Cheap Web Hosting Solutions for Your TLDs

There are 2 features you require so as to establish a web page. The first one is a domain name that will open your website when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is principally the disk storage space on a web server where the site files will be placed, plus several more features that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting package are two associated, yet different services, and you require both of them in order to have a working online portal.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it includes two components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the TLD. While you can choose the SLD of the domain to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given period of time between 1 and 10 years. They may contain other specifications with respect to the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a hosting account where you have to accommodate it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will show the web site files that you host in the account, in other words it will open your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a certain registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, although lots of hosting vendors provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to manage all services from one Control Panel interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the website hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to change a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each web hosting supplier has at least two name servers - ns1.theclearhost.com and ns2.theclearhost.com, for instance. The website hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain gives you the chance to change the NS records and point the domain name to one web host or another.

The Necessity for Stable Web Hosting Services

Once the domain name is pointed to a specific domain hosting corporation and is added to their web servers, you will obtain several web services. The most essential one is that the web page files that you keep on the hosting server will now be shown when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to create electronic mail accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to tackle them. Whether you own a personal or a business site, being accessible online and being allowed to create e-mailbox accounts with your domain name are the two most important things that come with a web hosting plan. If you host a corporate web page – it will identify your business before your visitors or clients. This is why you require a trustworthy hosting firm that will deliver a dependable and stable website hosting service.
