Cheap Web Hosting Packages for Your Domains

There are two things you need so as to establish a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your online portal when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a website hosting package, which is principally the disk space on a web hosting server where the web page files will be located, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain and the web hosting account are two interconnected, yet separate solutions, and you demand both of them in order to have a working website.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it is composed of 2 constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above illustration, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the TLD. While you can pick the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is available for registration, there is a certain number of TLDs to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed stretch of time between 1 and 10 years. They may contain additional prerequisites with regard to the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Services

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting plan where you have to include it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will open the files that you host in the account, i.e. it will display your web page. You can have a domain registered with a particular registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, even though many hosting distributors offer both solutions and it is more user-friendly to manage everything from one and the same web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to change a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named name servers. Each hosting supplier has at least two name servers - ns1.mindmeldnetwks.com and ns2.mindmeldnetwks.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain offers you the option to modify the name servers and point the domain to one web host or another.

The Need of Reliable website hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting vendor and is added to their web servers, you will get several web services. The most crucial one is that the web page files that you host on the web hosting server will now be shown when you write your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to establish email boxes like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail client to tackle them. Whether you run a personal or a corporate web site, being accessible online and being enabled to use e-mail addresses with your domain are the two most fundamental things that you receive with a website hosting package. If you have a corporate web site – it will represent your business before your web page visitors or clients. That's why you need a reliable provider that will provide a dependable and steady website hosting solution.
