Inexpensive Hosting Plans for Your Domains

There are 2 features you demand so as to run a site. The first one is a domain name that will display your site when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting account, which is basically the disk storage space on a hosting server where the web site files will be situated, plus several more features that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting account are 2 similar, yet separate services, and you demand them both so as to have an operational web page.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it involves 2 constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain span of time between 1 and ten years. They may include other stipulations with respect to the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting package where you have to include it. Thus, when you write it in a web browser, it will display the content that you have in the account, in other words it will show your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a certain provider and get the hosting service from another, although lots of web hosts offer both services and it is more user-friendly to manage everything from one single web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you need to change a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each hosting company has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.hostopark.com and ns2.hostopark.com, for instance. The CP that you utilize for your domain name offers you the chance to alter the NS records and point the domain name to one service provider or another.

The Necessity for Trustworthy web hosting Services

Once the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting service provider and is added to their web hosting servers, you will get several web services. The most vital one is that the web site files that you keep on the server will now be shown when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to set up electronic mails such as [email protected] and use webmail or a mail client to manage them. Whether you manage a personal or a business web site, being accessible online and being able to set up email addresses with your domain name are the two most fundamental things that you obtain with a web hosting package. In case you own a business web site – it will identify your business before your website visitors or customers. For that reason you demand a trustworthy service provider that will provide a reliable and stable web hosting service.
