Cheap Hosting Solutions for Your TLDs

There are 2 entities you need so as to establish an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will open your web site when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is principally the disk storage space on a server where the website files will be located, plus a few more features that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting account are 2 associated, yet separate services, and you demand them both to have a functioning web page.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it includes two constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the SLD of the domain to be anything that is available for registration, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular stretch of time between one and 10 years. They may have other preconditions concerning the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting plan where you have to accommodate it. In such a way, when you write it in a browser, it will show the web site files that you have in the account, i.e. it will display your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a particular company and get the hosting service from another, although lots of web hosting companies provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to handle all services from the same web hosting CP tool. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to modify a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called nameservers. Each host has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.baldguyhosting.com and ns2.baldguyhosting.com, for instance. The website hosting CP that you utilize for your domain gives you the possibility to alter the nameservers and point the domain name to one web host or another.

The Demand for Dependable Website Hosting Solutions

The moment the domain name is pointed to a specific domain hosting service provider and is added to their servers, you will receive various services. The most important one is that the web site files that you host on the web server will now be available online when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to set up email addresses such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to administer them. Whether you run a personal or a business web page, being accessible online and being able to create electronic mailboxes with your domain are the two most essential options that come with a web hosting package. If you host a business web page – it will represent your business before your website visitors or clients. For that reason you demand a trustworthy web hosting vendor that will deliver a fast and steady website hosting solution.
