Cheap Web Hosting Plans for Your Domains

There are 2 features you need so as to run a site. The first one is a domain name that will show your online portal when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a hosting package, which is fundamentally the data storage space on a web server where the web site files will be situated, plus several more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting plan are two similar, yet different solutions, and you need both of them 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 can be up to 64 characters long and it contains 2 components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can select the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a finite number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given span of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may include additional stipulations when it comes to the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting plan where you have to host it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will exhibit the web content that you host in the account, i.e. it will open your online portal. You can have a domain name registered with one company and receive the hosting service from another, even though numerous web hosting corporations offer both services and it is more time-saving to handle everything from the same web hosting CP interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to alter a particular setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each hosting vendor has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.vehosty.com and ns2.vehosty.com, for instance. The Control Panel that you have for your domain gives you the chance to modify the name server records and point the domain to one provider or another.

The Necessity for Stable website hosting Solutions

The moment the domain name is pointed to a concrete domain hosting distributor and is added to their web hosting servers, you will get different services. The most crucial one is that the web site files that you host on the web server will now be exhibited when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to create email addresses like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or an e-mail client to administer them. Whether you host a personal or a business web portal, being online and being able to set up mailboxes with your domain name are the two most essential things that you get with a website hosting plan. In case you own a corporate web portal – it will identify your business before your web site visitors or clients. That is why you need a dependable hosting service provider that will offer a reliable and stable website hosting solution.
