Budget Web Hosting Packages for Your Top-Level Domains
There are two features you demand in order to kick off a site. The first one is a domain name that will open your online portal when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting plan, which is basically the data storage space on a server where the web page files will be placed, plus a few more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting plan are two related, yet separate solutions, and you need both of them so as to have a running web page.
What is a Domain?
A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it is composed of two components – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the SLD of the domain to be anything that is available for registration, there is a finite number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The Top-Level Domains 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 have other specifications regarding the registrant.
Domain Name Hosting Services
As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting plan where you have to add it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will display the site files that you host in the account, in other words it will display your site. You can have a domain name registered with a specific provider and obtain the hosting service from another, even though lots of web hosting service providers provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to administer everything from a single web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain name to the server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you have to change a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each host has at least two nameservers - ns1.malanghost.net and ns2.malanghost.net, for example. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain gives you the chance to change the NS records and point the domain name to one hosting supplier or another.
The Need of Trustworthy Hosting Services
As soon as the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting service provider and is added to their servers, you will get a number of online services. The most essential one is that the web site files that you host on the web server will now be displayed when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to create e-mail address accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an email client to handle them. Whether you have a personal or a business web portal, being accessible online and being enabled to set up email mailbox accounts with your domain are the two most essential things that you receive with a web hosting account. If you run a business web portal – it will represent your business before your visitors or clients. For this reason you require a dependable provider that will deliver a fast and stable web hosting solution.
