Affordable Hosting Plans for Your TLDs
There are two entities you require so as to establish a website. The first one is a domain name that will display your online portal when you write it in a browser, and the second one is a web hosting package, which is inherently the storage space on a hosting server where the site files will be located, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 similar, yet separate solutions, and you require both of them so as to have a functioning site.
What is a Domain?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it is made of 2 constituents – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that has not been registered yet, 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 fixed spell of time between 1 and 10 years. They may impose additional preconditions about the registrant.
Domain Name Hosting Services
As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a website hosting package where you have to add it. In this way, when you type it in a browser, it will open the files that you have in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web page. You can have a domain name registered with one company and obtain the hosting service from another, although a lot of web hosting vendors provide both services and it is more user-friendly to administer all services from one and the same website hosting CP interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting package are separate services, you have to point the domain to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to alter a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each web hosting supplier has at least two nameservers - ns1.finelinehosting.com and ns2.finelinehosting.com, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain name offers you the opportunity to alter the name server records and point the domain name to one host or another.
The Need of Stable web hosting Solutions
Once the domain is pointed to a particular domain hosting service provider and is added to their web servers, you will receive different web services. The most important one is that the web page files that you have on the web server will now be shown when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to establish electronic mail accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an e-mail client to tackle them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate web portal, being online and being able to create electronic mails with your domain are the two most cardinal things that you receive with a web hosting package. In case you manage a business web portal – it will single out your business before your web site visitors or customers. For that reason you require a stable web hosting firm that will deliver a fast and stable website hosting service.
