Moderately Priced Hosting Solutions for Your Top-Level Domains
There are two things you need so as to open a site. The first one is a domain name that will open your site when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is basically the data storage space on a server where the web page files will be placed, plus several more services that come with it. The domain and the web hosting plan are two associated, yet different services, and you need them both to have a running website.
What is a Domain Name?
We offer more than 130 tlds
A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the web address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it contains two components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the SLD of the domain to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a finite number of top-level domain names to choose from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed stretch of time between one and 10 yrs. They may involve more prerequisites with regard to the registrant.
Domain Web Hosting Solutions
As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting account where you have to add it. In such a way, when you type it in a browser, it will open the web page files that you host in the account, in other words it will open your website. You can have a domain registered with one provider and receive the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting companies offer both services and it is more convenient to manage all services from one website hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the web hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to alter a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named name server records. Each web hosting firm has at least two nameservers - ns1.uk-hq.net and ns2.uk-hq.net, for example. The website hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain name offers you the possibility to change the name server records and point the domain name to one host or another.
The Need of Trustworthy Website Hosting Services
As soon as the domain is pointed to a particular domain hosting corporation and is added to their hosting servers, you will get various online services. The most vital one is that the web site files that you accommodate on the web server will now be shown when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to establish mailboxes like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or an email client to handle them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate web page, being available online and being able to create e-mails with your domain are the two most significant options that you obtain with a hosting plan. If you manage a corporate website – it will represent your business before your website visitors or clients. This is why you require a reliable web hosting service provider that will deliver a fast and stable web hosting solution.
