Reasonably Priced Hosting Plans for Your Top-Level Domains
There are 2 features you require so as to kick off an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your website when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a website hosting account, which is essentially the disk storage space on a hosting server where the web site files will be located, plus a few more features that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting plan are two similar, yet separate services, and you require them both to have a functioning web site.
What is a Domain Name?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it involves two entities – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above illustration, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that is open for registration, there is a fixed 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 period of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may entail other specifications with regard to the registrant.
Domain Name Hosting Solutions
As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting plan where you have to accommodate it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will display the files that you host in the account, i.e. it will open your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a specific registrar and get the hosting service from another, even though many web hosting companies provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to handle everything from a single website hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, since the domain registration and the hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to change a given setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named name server records. Each company has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.myomnihosting.com and ns2.myomnihosting.com, for example. The website hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain name offers you the possibility to change the NS records and point the domain to one web hosting company or another.
The Demand for Reliable web hosting Solutions
Once the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting supplier and is added to their web hosting servers, you will obtain various services. The most important one is that the website files that you accommodate on the web hosting server will now be accessible when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to establish electronic mailboxes such as name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail user agent to tackle them. Whether you manage a personal or a business web site, being available online and being allowed to set up electronic mails with your domain are the two most cardinal things that you get with a web hosting package. If you host a corporate web portal – it will single out your business before your website visitors or clients. That is the reason why you need a reliable host that will furnish a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
