Cheap Hosting Plans for Your Domains

There are two items you require in order to launch an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will open your website when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a web hosting package, which is primarily the hard disk space on a web hosting server where the site files will be placed, plus a few more services that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 connected, yet different services, and you require both of them in order to have an operational web site.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it contains two entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that is open for registration, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular interval of time between one and ten yrs. They may entail additional prerequisites with regard to the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you need a website hosting account where you have to include it. Thus, when you type it in a browser, it will exhibit the site files that you have in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web page. You can have a domain name registered with one provider and receive the hosting service from another, although many hosting corporations offer both solutions and it is more user-friendly to handle all services from a single website hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to change a given setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name server records. Each web hosting provider has at least 2 name servers - ns1.www.ebdhosting.com and ns2.www.ebdhosting.com, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain offers you the chance to modify the nameservers and point the domain name to one hosting service provider or another.

The Necessity for Reliable web hosting Solutions

Once the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting provider and is added to their web servers, you will obtain various services. The most crucial one is that the web site files that you accommodate on the hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up electronic mails like name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail user agent to manage them. Whether you own a personal or a business website, being accessible online and being enabled to set up mailboxes with your domain name are the two most important things that you get with a web hosting account. In case you have a corporate web page – it will identify your business before your website visitors or customers. This is the reason why you demand a dependable web hosting provider that will deliver a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
