Cut-Price Hosting Packages for Your Domain Names

There are 2 entities you demand in order to own a web page. The first one is a domain name that will show your website when you write it in a browser, and the other one is a website hosting package, which is fundamentally the hard disk space on a hosting server where the web site files will be located, plus several more features that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting account are two associated, yet different services, and you need both of them to have a functioning web portal.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it is made of 2 parts – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a fixed number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The TLDs 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 impose additional specifications regarding the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting plan where you have to include it. In this way, when you type it in a web browser, it will open the web site files that you host in the account, i.e. it will show your website. You can have a domain name registered with a given provider and obtain the hosting service from another, although numerous hosting distributors offer both services and it is more time-saving to manage everything from one Control Panel GUI. Either way, because the domain registration and the hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to modify a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called name servers. Each hosting distributor has at least two name servers - ns1.allcloudhost.net and ns2.allcloudhost.net, for example. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain name offers you the chance to alter the nameservers and point the domain name to one provider or another.

The Demand for Stable web hosting Services

The moment the domain name is pointed to a certain domain hosting vendor and is added to their web hosting servers, you will receive various online services. The most vital one is that the web page files that you have on the web hosting server will now be accessible when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to establish mail addresses like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an e-mail client to tackle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate web page, being available online and being enabled to create emails with your domain are the two most important options that you obtain with a web hosting plan. If you host a corporate site – it will identify your business before your visitors or clients. For this reason you demand a dependable hosting vendor that will supply a fast and stable website hosting solution.
