Cut-Rate Web Hosting Plans for Your TLDs

There are 2 items you require in order to kick off a web site. The first one is a domain name that will show your web portal when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting package, which is inherently the hard disk storage space on a web hosting server where the web site files will be situated, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting plan are two linked, yet separate services, and you need both of them in order to have an operational web site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the web address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it involves 2 entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is available for registration, there is a finite number of top-level domain names to select from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular period of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may include other stipulations concerning the registrant.

Domain Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting account where you have to add it. Thus, when you type it in a browser, it will open the web content that you have in the account, in other words it will display your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a given company and get the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting firms offer both services and it is more convenient to administer all services from a single web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the website hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to alter a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name servers. Each company has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.webculture.us and ns2.webculture.us, for instance. The website hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain name gives you the opportunity to change the name server records and point the domain name to one web hosting corporation or another.

The Demand for Trustworthy Website Hosting Services

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a concrete domain hosting provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will receive a number of online services. The most vital one is that the web site files that you keep on the hosting server will now be exhibited when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to create electronic mails like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or a mail user agent to manage them. Whether you have a personal or a corporate online portal, being available online and being enabled to use electronic mail accounts with your domain name are the two most significant things that you receive with a website hosting package. If you administer a business online portal – it will single out your business before your website visitors or customers. For that reason you need a trustworthy hosting distributor that will deliver a fast and steady website hosting solution.
