Cheap Hosting Services for Your Domain Names

There are 2 features you require so as to have a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will display your website when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting account, which is essentially the disk space on a web server where the site files will be situated, plus several more features that come with it. The domain and the web hosting package are 2 linked, yet different solutions, and you need them both to have a running web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it comprises 2 constituents – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above illustration, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can pick the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is available for registration, there is a finite number of TLDs to select from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular span of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may include more requirements with respect to the registrant.

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting package where you have to include it. Thus, when you type it in a web browser, it will exhibit the content that you host in the account, i.e. it will show your web site. You can have a domain registered with a certain company and get the hosting service from another, even though many hosting firms offer both services and it is more user-friendly to handle all services from a single website hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to alter a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name servers. Each web hosting supplier has at least two nameservers - ns1.www.iwebclouds.com and ns2.www.iwebclouds.com, for instance. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain name gives you the option to alter the nameservers and point the domain to one web hosting vendor or another.

The Demand for Reliable web hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting corporation and is added to their web servers, you will receive different web services. The most crucial one is that the web site files that you have on the web server will now be accessible when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to establish email box accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail user agent to handle them. Whether you have a personal or a business website, being available online and being allowed to create mailbox accounts with your domain are the two most essential things that you receive with a web hosting plan. In case you own a corporate web portal – it will identify your business before your visitors or customers. For this reason you demand a reliable service provider that will offer a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
