Cut-Price Web Hosting Packages for Your Domains

There are 2 features you need in order to kick off a web site. The first one is a domain name that will open your web page when you write it in a web browser, and the second one is a hosting package, which is principally the data storage space on a server where the web page files will be located, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 associated, yet separate services, and you need both of them so as to have a running web site.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the web address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it includes two pieces – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a certain number of TLDs to select from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given spell of time between 1 and 10 years. They may include other preconditions about the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a website hosting plan where you have to add it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will show the web page files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your site. You can have a domain name registered with a particular provider and get the hosting service from another, even though numerous hosting distributors provide both services and it is more convenient to administer everything from one single Control Panel user interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to change a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each hosting corporation has at least two nameservers - ns1.host4up.com and ns2.host4up.com, for example. The Control Panel that you have for your domain name gives you the option to alter the nameservers and point the domain name to one hosting vendor or another.

The Demand for Trustworthy Hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting firm and is added to their servers, you will get a number of web services. The most important one is that the website files that you host on the web server will now be shown when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to create e-mail accounts such as [email protected] and use webmail or an email client to handle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate web page, being online and being enabled to set up e-mail boxes with your domain are the two most significant options that you receive with a web hosting package. If you host a business web page – it will single out your business before your visitors or clients. Therefore you require a reliable hosting service provider that will deliver a dependable and steady web hosting solution.
