Budget Web Hosting Plans for Your Domain Names
There are 2 features you require in order to launch a web site. The first one is a domain name that will display your online portal when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting account, which is essentially the disk storage space on a hosting server where the web site files will be placed, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting plan are two connected, yet separate services, and you demand them both to have a working site.
What is a Domain?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it is made of 2 entities – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a fixed number of TLDs to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular stretch of time between one and ten yrs. They may include more specifications regarding the registrant.
Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions
As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a hosting account where you have to accommodate it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will show the site files that you have in the account, in other words it will open your web 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 distributors offer both services and it is more user-friendly to handle all services from one single hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you need to alter a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each host has at least 2 name servers - ns1.josidelhosting.com and ns2.josidelhosting.com, for example. The Control Panel that you utilize for your domain name gives you the chance to change the name servers and point the domain to one provider or another.
The Need of Reliable web hosting Solutions
Once the domain name is pointed to a concrete domain hosting service provider and is added to their servers, you will get several services. The most crucial one is that the website files that you have on the web server will now be shown when you write your domain in a browser. You will also be able to create email mailbox accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or a mail client to administer them. Whether you run a personal or a business web site, being accessible online and being enabled to use emails with your domain are the two most significant options that you obtain with a web hosting package. If you run a business web site – it will represent your business before your web page visitors or customers. Therefore you demand a dependable hosting company that will offer a dependable and stable hosting service.
