Reasonably Priced Hosting Plans for Your Top-Level Domain Names
There are 2 entities you need in order to host a web page. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your site when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting package, which is primarily the hard disk space on a web hosting server where the website files will be situated, plus several more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 similar, yet separate services, and you need them both so as to have a running site.
What is a Domain Name?
We offer more than 130 tlds
A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it involves two components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the TLD. While you can pick the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a finite number of TLDs 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 one and ten years. They may involve other preconditions with regard to the registrant.
Domain Web Hosting Solutions
As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a hosting package where you have to host it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will open the files that you host in the account, in other words it will show your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a given company and obtain the hosting service from another, although a lot of hosting firms offer both services and it is more time-saving to administer everything from one and the same website hosting CP tool. Either way, since 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 modify a certain setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called NS records. Each web hosting supplier has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.onesourcehost.com and ns2.onesourcehost.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain offers you the opportunity to modify the name servers and point the domain name to one hosting supplier or another.
The Need of Stable Hosting Services
Once the domain name is pointed to a specific domain hosting supplier and is added to their servers, you will receive several services. The most important one is that the website files that you have on the web server will now be accessible when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to set up mailboxes such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to tackle them. Whether you run a personal or a business web page, being online and being able to set up e-mailbox accounts with your domain are the two most significant options that come with a web hosting plan. In case you manage a business site – it will represent your business before your web site visitors or clients. This is why you need a reliable hosting service provider that will supply a dependable and steady web hosting solution.
