Cheap Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domains

There are two entities you require in order to kick off a site. The first one is a domain name that will open your site when you write it in a browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is primarily the disk storage space on a server where the web site files will be situated, plus a few more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting plan are 2 interconnected, yet different services, and you require both of them in order to have a running web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it contains two entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above 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 name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a finite number of top-level domain names to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed spell of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may include more stipulations with respect to the registrant.

Domain Name 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 host it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will display the site files that you have in the account, in other words it will display your web page. You can have a domain name registered with a certain company and receive the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting corporations provide both services and it is more time-saving to manage everything from a single website hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, because the domain name registration and the web hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to modify a given setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name server records. Each web hosting provider has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.pnscripts.com and ns2.pnscripts.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain gives you the possibility to modify the NS records and point the domain to one provider or another.

The Demand for Dependable web hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a specific domain hosting distributor and is added to their servers, you will obtain various web services. The most crucial one is that the web site files that you host on the hosting server will now be exhibited when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to set up email mailboxes like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail client to administer them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate web page, being accessible online and being enabled to use email address accounts with your domain name are the two most essential things that you obtain with a website hosting plan. If you own a corporate online portal – it will single out your business before your web site visitors or customers. For this reason you demand a stable hosting supplier that will deliver a fast and steady website hosting solution.
