Inexpensive Hosting Services for Your Domain Names
There are two items you demand so as to own an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your web portal when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a hosting account, which is basically the data storage space on a web hosting server where the web site files will be placed, plus a few more features that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting package are two similar, yet separate services, and you require both of them so as to have a running web site.
What is a Domain?
We offer more than 130 tlds
A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it contains two constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the TLD. While you can choose the SLD of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a fixed number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed interval of time between one and 10 years. They may involve more prerequisites regarding the registrant.
Domain Name Hosting Services
As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting package where you have to include it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will open the content that you have in the account, i.e. it will open your website. You can have a domain registered with a specific company and receive the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting corporations offer both services and it is more user-friendly to administer everything from one and the same web hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the hosting account are different 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 alter a given setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named name server records. Each hosting company has at least 2 name servers - ns1.st8forward.com and ns2.st8forward.com, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain gives you the chance to alter the name servers and point the domain name to one hosting service provider or another.
The Need of Dependable Hosting Solutions
Once the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting supplier and is added to their servers, you will obtain different services. The most important one is that the web page files that you keep on the server will now be shown when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to establish e-mailboxes like name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail user agent to tackle them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate online portal, being online and being permitted to set up email mailboxes with your domain are the two most cardinal things that you obtain with a website hosting package. If you run a business web page – it will represent your business before your website visitors or customers. Therefore you require a reliable service provider that will deliver a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
