Inexpensive Hosting Packages for Your Top-Level Domains

There are 2 entities you require in order to set up a website. The first one is a domain name that will show your web page when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting plan, which is basically the storage space on a web hosting server where the site files will be situated, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting account are 2 interconnected, yet different services, and you need them both to have a running website.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the web address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four symbols long and it comprises 2 pieces – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a set number of TLDs to choose 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 other requirements regarding the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting plan where you have to add it. Thus, when you type it in a web browser, it will show the files that you host in the account, i.e. it will show your website. You can have a domain name registered with a certain registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, even though numerous web hosting corporations provide both services and it is more user-friendly to handle all services from one web hosting CP interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the website hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain name to the server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to modify a given setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named name server records. Each web hosting vendor has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.www.rosegoldproduction.com and ns2.www.rosegoldproduction.com, for instance. The hosting CP that you utilize for your domain gives you the opportunity to change the nameservers and point the domain to one web host or another.

The Need of Stable Hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting firm and is added to their hosting servers, you will receive several services. The most crucial one is that the site files that you accommodate on the web hosting server will now be displayed when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to create email accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail user agent to handle them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate website, being online and being allowed to set up email mailboxes with your domain are the two most fundamental options that you obtain with a web hosting package. In case you host a business website – it will identify your business before your website visitors or customers. That is the reason why you require a reliable web hosting corporation that will furnish a fast and stable web hosting solution.
