Cheap Web Hosting Solutions for Your Domains

There are 2 entities you require so as to kick off an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will display your online portal when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a website hosting plan, which is inherently the disk storage space on a web hosting server where the website files will be located, plus a few more services that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting package are 2 related, yet separate services, and you require both of them to have a running web page.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it comprises 2 entities – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above illustration, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the Second-Level Domain of the domain to be anything that is available for registration, there is a finite number of TLDs to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular period of time between 1 and ten years. They may have additional requirements with respect to the registrant.

Domain Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting package where you have to host it. In such a way, when you type it in a browser, it will display the content that you have in the account, i.e. it will open your web site. You can have a domain registered with a given provider and obtain the hosting service from another, although lots of hosting service providers provide both solutions and it is more convenient to administer everything from one and the same web hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web 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 - the so-called name server records. Each service provider has at least two nameservers - ns1.www.fastcloudserver.net and ns2.www.fastcloudserver.net, for example. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain gives you the chance to change the nameservers and point the domain to one web host or another.

The Necessity for Dependable web hosting Services

As soon as the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting corporation and is added to their hosting servers, you will obtain various web services. The most vital one is that the site files that you host on the hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to establish email mailboxes like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or a mail client to administer them. Whether you run a personal or a corporate web site, being online and being enabled to use email addresses with your domain are the two most significant things that you obtain with a website hosting plan. If you run a corporate website – it will represent your business before your website visitors or clients. That is why you require a reliable hosting vendor that will furnish a fast and stable website hosting service.
