Half-Priced Web Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domains

There are 2 things you demand so as to launch an online portal. 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 website hosting account, which is essentially the hard disk space on a web server where the web site files will be situated, plus several more services that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting account are two linked, yet different services, and you demand both of them so as to have a running online portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the web address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it contains two constituents – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can select the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed period of time between one and ten years. They may contain additional prerequisites about the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting package where you have to host it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will open the web site 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 many hosting firms provide both solutions and it is more convenient to handle all services from a single website hosting CP user interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you have to modify a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named nameservers. Each hosting service provider has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.www.webgear.biz and ns2.www.webgear.biz, for instance. The website hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain offers you the option to alter the nameservers and point the domain to one web hosting vendor or another.

The Demand for Trustworthy Web Hosting Solutions

The moment the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting corporation and is added to their web servers, you will receive a number of services. The most crucial one is that the web page files that you have on the web hosting server will now be available online when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to establish email accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an e-mail client to administer them. Whether you own a personal or a corporate web portal, being available online and being allowed to use mail accounts with your domain are the two most important things that you receive with a web hosting plan. In case you manage a corporate web portal – it will single out your business before your visitors or customers. For this reason you need a stable web hosting firm that will offer a reliable and stable website hosting service.
