Half-Priced Hosting Solutions for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 features you need so as to set up a site. The first one is a domain name that will open your web portal when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting account, which is principally the data storage space on a web hosting server where the web site files will be placed, plus a few more features that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting plan are 2 linked, yet different services, and you require them both so as to have an operational online portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to sixty four symbols long and it consists of two pieces – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the SLD of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to choose from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given interval of time between 1 and 10 years. They may entail other prerequisites about the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting account where you have to add it. In such a way, when you write it in a browser, it will exhibit the web page files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a specific provider and get the hosting service from another, even though numerous hosting firms provide both services and it is more time-saving to manage everything from the same website hosting CP tool. Either way, since the domain name registration and the hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to modify a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name server records. Each web hosting firm has at least two name servers - ns1.mymediaanywhere.com and ns2.mymediaanywhere.com, for instance. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain name gives you the option to alter the name server records and point the domain name to one web hosting distributor or another.

The Demand for Dependable web hosting Solutions

The moment the domain is pointed to a particular domain hosting vendor and is added to their servers, you will get several web services. The most crucial one is that the website files that you host on the web server will now be shown when you write your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to set up electronic mails like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an email client to tackle them. Whether you administer a personal or a business online portal, being accessible online and being permitted to use e-mail box accounts with your domain are the two most important things that you get with a web hosting plan. In case you own a corporate site – it will single out your business before your visitors or customers. That is the reason why you need a stable hosting supplier that will furnish a dependable and steady web hosting solution.
