Low-Priced Hosting Packages for Your Domain Names

There are 2 entities you require so as to open a website. The first one is a domain name that will open your web site when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting package, which is essentially the storage space on a server where the site files will be placed, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain and the web hosting package are two connected, yet different services, and you need both of them in order to have a working site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the web address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it consists of two parts – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can choose the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular span of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may entail other requirements when it comes to the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Services

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting account where you have to add it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will exhibit the website files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your website. You can have a domain name registered with a certain registrar and get the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting vendors provide both solutions and it is more convenient to administer everything from a single web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain name registration and the hosting plan are different 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 modify a particular setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named name server records. Each hosting vendor has at least 2 name servers - ns1.hosting.elasticis.com and ns2.hosting.elasticis.com, for instance. The web hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain name offers you the possibility to alter the NS records and point the domain to one service provider or another.

The Necessity for Dependable Website Hosting Services

Once the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting company and is added to their servers, you will obtain different services. The most important one is that the site files that you keep on the server will now be exhibited when you write your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to establish emails like name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail client to handle them. Whether you host a personal or a business site, being online and being able to set up electronic mail accounts with your domain name are the two most significant things that you receive with a website hosting account. In case you have a business website – it will single out your business before your web page visitors or clients. This is why you need a reliable hosting distributor that will supply a fast and stable hosting solution.
