Affordably Priced Web Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domain Names
There are two entities you require so as to establish a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will open your web site when you write it in a browser, and the other one is a web hosting account, which is primarily the disk space on a web server where the web site files will be placed, plus a few more services that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting plan are 2 similar, yet different services, and you require both of them in order to have a running online portal.
What is a Domain Name?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it includes two pieces – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above illustration, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a finite number of top-level domain names to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given spell of time between one and ten yrs. They may involve additional prerequisites with respect to the registrant.
Domain Name Hosting Solutions
As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting package where you have to include it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will exhibit the web page files that you host in the account, in other words it will display your website. You can have a domain name registered with a certain company and receive the hosting service from another, although lots of web hosting companies offer both services and it is more convenient to handle all services from one CP tool. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you need to change a given setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named nameservers. Each web hosting vendor has at least two name servers - ns1.resellvps.co.uk and ns2.resellvps.co.uk, for instance. The web hosting CP that you utilize for your domain offers you the possibility to change the name server records and point the domain to one web host or another.
The Need of Trustworthy website hosting Solutions
Once the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting service provider and is added to their web servers, you will receive several web services. The most vital one is that the web page files that you host on the hosting server will now be available online when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to create emails like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an e-mail client to tackle them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate web portal, being available online and being permitted to create mails with your domain name are the two most significant things that you obtain with a web hosting package. If you run a business online portal – it will identify your business before your website visitors or customers. This is the reason why you need a reliable web hosting firm that will provide a fast and stable hosting solution.
