Cut-Rate Web Hosting Plans for Your Top-Level Domains

There are 2 items you need so as to run a web page. The first one is a domain name that will display your web site when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting package, which is inherently the disk space on a web server where the website files will be located, plus several more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting account are two linked, yet different services, and you require both of them to have a working web page.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it consists of two parts – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular stretch of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may involve other prerequisites with regard to the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting account where you have to host it. In this way, when you type it in a browser, it will display the content that you have in the account, i.e. it will display your web page. You can have a domain registered with a specific provider and receive the hosting service from another, although many service providers provide both services and it is more time-saving to administer all services from one web hosting CP GUI. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting package are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called name servers. Each hosting provider has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.hosting-zen.reseller-hosting-themes.com and ns2.hosting-zen.reseller-hosting-themes.com, for instance. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain name gives you the possibility to alter the NS records and point the domain to one web hosting corporation or another.

The Necessity for Stable Website Hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting firm and is added to their hosting servers, you will receive several services. The most essential one is that the website files that you keep on the hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to set up e-mails such as name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or an e-mail client to handle them. Whether you host a personal or a business online portal, being online and being able to create e-mailboxes with your domain are the two most significant options that come with a website hosting account. If you administer a business site – it will single out your business before your web page visitors or clients. This is the reason why you demand a stable web hosting provider that will furnish a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
