Cut-Rate Web Hosting Packages for Your Domains
There are 2 things you demand so as to launch an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your web portal when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting package, which is fundamentally the hard disk space on a web hosting server where the web site files will be situated, plus a few more features that come with it. The domain and the web hosting account are two interconnected, yet separate solutions, and you require both of them in order to have a functioning site.
What is a Domain?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it involves 2 parts – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a certain number of top-level domain names to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given span of time between one and ten years. They may have additional preconditions with regard to the registrant.
Domain Hosting Services
As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting plan where you have to host it. In this way, when you type it in a browser, it will open the web page files that you have in the account, in other words it will show your web site. You can have a domain registered with a particular company and obtain the hosting service from another, even though many web hosting suppliers offer both services and it is more user-friendly to administer all services from one web hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, because the domain registration and the web hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name server records. Each hosting vendor has at least two nameservers - ns1.geldbach-solutions.de and ns2.geldbach-solutions.de, for example. The website hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain offers you the option to change the name servers and point the domain name to one web hosting corporation or another.
The Need of Trustworthy Web Hosting Services
The moment the domain name is pointed to a certain domain hosting company and is added to their web servers, you will obtain different online services. The most vital one is that the web page files that you host on the web hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to set up mails like [email protected] and avail of webmail or a mail client to manage them. Whether you have a personal or a business web page, being accessible online and being enabled to set up mail address accounts with your domain are the two most essential things that you obtain with a web hosting account. In case you manage a business web page – it will identify your business before your website visitors or customers. That is why you demand a stable web hosting firm that will furnish a reliable and steady web hosting service.
