Low-Price Hosting Plans for Your Top-Level Domain Names
There are two items you need in order to launch a web page. The first one is a domain name that will open your website when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a web hosting account, which is inherently the hard disk space on a hosting server where the web page files will be located, plus several more features that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 linked, yet different services, and you demand them both in order to have a running website.
What is a Domain Name?
A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it is made of two pieces – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the SLD of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a certain number of TLDs to pick from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain span of time between one and 10 years. They may impose additional prerequisites about the registrant.
Domain Name Web Hosting Services
As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you need a website hosting account where you have to add it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will open the web content that you have in the account, in other words it will exhibit your online portal. You can have a domain name registered with a given registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting service providers offer both services and it is more convenient to manage all services from one single website hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the hosting package are separate services, you have to point the domain to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you need to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name server records. Each hosting distributor has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.sequerah.com and ns2.sequerah.com, for example. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain name gives you the chance to change the nameservers and point the domain name to one web hosting corporation or another.
The Necessity for Reliable Website Hosting Solutions
As soon as the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting provider and is added to their servers, you will obtain a number of online services. The most essential one is that the site files that you have on the web hosting server will now be shown when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up e-mail boxes such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to administer them. Whether you have a personal or a corporate online portal, being online and being able to set up electronic mailboxes with your domain name are the two most essential things that you get with a web hosting package. In case you host a business web portal – it will identify your business before your web page visitors or customers. That is the reason why you need a trustworthy web hosting supplier that will supply a fast and steady website hosting solution.
