Cheap Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 entities you need so as to establish an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will display your web site when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a website hosting plan, which is fundamentally the disk storage space on a web server where the web site files will be located, plus several more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting account are two similar, yet different services, and you demand them both so as to have a working site.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it consists of 2 constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that is available for registration, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain span of time between one and ten years. They may involve additional specifications with regard to the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting package where you have to accommodate it. In such a way, when you type it in a browser, it will show the site files that you have in the account, in other words it will display your web site. You can have a domain registered with a particular company and get the hosting service from another, even though a lot of web hosting corporations offer both services and it is more convenient to manage all services from a single web hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you have to change a certain setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named nameservers. Each hosting distributor has at least 2 name servers - ns1.wantok.click and ns2.wantok.click, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain name gives you the opportunity to alter the nameservers and point the domain name to one provider or another.

The Need of Stable website hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting supplier and is added to their web servers, you will receive several web services. The most vital one is that the site files that you host on the server will now be shown when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to establish electronic mails such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to manage them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate web page, being available online and being able to set up email mailboxes with your domain are the two most pivotal options that you receive with a web hosting account. If you run a business web site – it will represent your business before your website visitors or clients. For that reason you require a dependable web hosting company that will supply a reliable and stable website hosting service.
