Affordable Web Hosting Packages for Your TLDs

There are two entities you need in order to establish an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will open your web page when you write it in a web browser, and the second one is a website hosting package, which is basically the disk space on a server where the web page files will be placed, plus several more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting package are 2 interconnected, yet separate services, and you need both of them in order to have an operational online portal.

What is a Domain?

A domain name 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 sixty four symbols long and it consists of 2 constituents – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that has not been registered yet, there is a fixed number of TLDs to choose from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular spell of time between one and 10 yrs. They may include other requirements regarding the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a website hosting account where you have to add it. Thus, when you write it in a browser, it will show the content that you host in the account, in other words it will open your website. You can have a domain name registered with a specific provider and receive the hosting service from another, even though numerous providers provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to handle all services from one web hosting CP GUI. Either way, since the domain name registration and the website hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain name to the server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you have to modify a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called name server records. Each web hosting service provider has at least 2 name servers - ns1.www.zhaku.com and ns2.www.zhaku.com, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain name gives you the option to modify the name servers and point the domain to one hosting company or another.

The Need of Trustworthy Web Hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting firm and is added to their web 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 shown when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to set up email boxes like [email protected] and avail of webmail or a mail user agent to administer them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate website, being available online and being enabled to create mails with your domain are the two most essential options that you get with a website hosting plan. If you manage a corporate online portal – it will single out your business before your web page visitors or clients. That is why you require a stable company that will deliver a dependable and steady website hosting solution.
