Cheap Web Hosting Services for Your Domains

There are two entities you require so as to have an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your site when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting account, which is inherently the storage space on a hosting server where the web page files will be situated, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain and the web hosting account are two interconnected, yet separate services, and you demand both of them so as to have a working website.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four characters long and it is made of 2 pieces – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. 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 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 given spell of time between one and ten yrs. They may contain additional prerequisites about the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting package where you have to include it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will exhibit the files that you have in the account, in other words it will show your web site. You can have a domain registered with a certain provider and obtain the hosting service from another, even though many providers offer both services and it is more user-friendly to handle everything from one and the same website hosting Control Panel GUI. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to modify a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each hosting firm has at least two name servers - ns1.hosting.pagesbiz.com and ns2.hosting.pagesbiz.com, for instance. The web hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain gives you the option to alter the NS records and point the domain to one web hosting provider or another.

The Necessity for Trustworthy website hosting Services

The moment the domain name is pointed to a certain domain hosting supplier and is added to their web hosting servers, you will obtain a number of online services. The most essential one is that the site files that you host on the hosting server will now be exhibited when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to set up e-mail address accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to manage them. Whether you have a personal or a business website, being available online and being permitted to create emails with your domain are the two most important options that come with a website hosting plan. In case you manage a corporate web site – it will represent your business before your web site visitors or clients. Therefore you demand a trustworthy hosting supplier that will furnish a dependable and steady web hosting solution.
