Cheap Hosting Solutions for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 entities you demand so as to set up a website. The first one is a domain name that will display your web page when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is fundamentally the disk space on a web server where the web site files will be located, plus a few more features that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting account are two linked, yet separate solutions, and you require both of them in order to have an operational online portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it is made of 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 pick the SLD of the domain to be anything that is available for registration, there is a finite number of top-level domain names to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given period of time between one and 10 yrs. They may include additional prerequisites about the registrant.

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting plan where you have to accommodate it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will display the content that you host in the account, i.e. it will open your web site. You can have a domain name registered with a specific provider and get the hosting service from another, even though a lot of web hosting vendors offer both services and it is more convenient to handle everything from one single website hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, because the domain registration and the web hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to alter a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each web hosting firm has at least two name servers - ns1.flashcodesolution.net and ns2.flashcodesolution.net, for example. The web hosting CP that you utilize for your domain offers you the possibility to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one web hosting service provider or another.

The Necessity for Stable website hosting Services

As soon as the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting provider and is added to their servers, you will get different services. The most vital one is that the web page files that you have on the web server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up mail accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail user agent to manage them. Whether you have a personal or a business website, being online and being permitted to set up mail address accounts with your domain name are the two most pivotal options that you get with a web hosting plan. In case you administer a corporate website – it will single out your business before your website visitors or clients. That is the reason why you demand a dependable hosting firm that will offer a reliable and steady website hosting service.
