Cut-Rate Hosting Solutions for Your TLDs

There are two entities you demand so as to launch a web site. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your online portal when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is primarily the hard disk space on a web server where the web page files will be situated, plus several more services that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 similar, yet different services, and you require both of them to have an operational site.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it is made of two constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a set 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 given span of time between one and ten yrs. They may entail other specifications concerning the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting plan where you have to host it. In such a way, when you type it in a browser, it will exhibit the web content that you have in the account, i.e. it will open your online portal. You can have a domain registered with a certain provider and get the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting vendors provide both solutions and it is more convenient to handle all services from one web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the web hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each service provider has at least two name servers - ns1.bootdomain.com and ns2.bootdomain.com, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain name gives you the chance to modify the name servers and point the domain name to one web hosting provider or another.

The Need of Dependable Web Hosting Solutions

The moment the domain name is pointed to a given domain hosting company and is added to their web servers, you will get various online services. The most essential one is that the site files that you accommodate on the web hosting server will now be exhibited when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to establish mail addresses like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to manage them. Whether you own a personal or a business site, being online and being able to set up mail address accounts with your domain name are the two most significant options that you receive with a web hosting plan. If you own a corporate web portal – it will single out your business before your visitors or customers. That's why you require a stable web hosting vendor that will furnish a reliable and steady hosting solution.
