Cheap Web Hosting Solutions for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 features you demand in order to run an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your web portal when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is basically the disk storage space on a web server where the web page files will be placed, plus several more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting package are two interconnected, yet separate services, and you demand them both so as to have a running site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it consists of two components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can pick the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a certain 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 fixed interval of time between 1 and 10 years. They may impose additional stipulations in regard to the registrant.

Domain Hosting Services

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting package where you have to add it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will show the website files that you have in the account, in other words it will show your web page. You can have a domain registered with a specific registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, even though many web hosting companies offer both solutions and it is more user-friendly to handle everything from a single website hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, because the domain registration and the hosting package are separate 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 so-called nameservers. Each hosting service provider has at least two nameservers - ns1.masterwebmanager.com and ns2.masterwebmanager.com, for instance. The web hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain offers you the chance to change the name server records and point the domain to one hosting distributor or another.

The Need of Dependable Hosting Services

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a certain domain hosting service provider and is added to their web hosting servers, you will receive different services. The most important one is that the website files that you keep on the web server will now be available online when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to create email mailbox accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail client to administer them. Whether you own a personal or a business web portal, being available online and being allowed to set up mailboxes with your domain are the two most essential options that come with a hosting package. In case you own a business web portal – it will single out your business before your visitors or clients. For that reason you need a dependable hosting company that will offer a fast and steady hosting service.
