Cheap Hosting Plans for Your Domain Names

There are two entities you require in order to start a web site. The first one is a domain name that will show your web site when you write it in a browser, and the other one is a website hosting package, which is primarily the hard disk space on a server where the site files will be placed, plus a few more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting account are two associated, yet separate services, and you require both of them so as to have an operational online portal.

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 symbols long and it is made of 2 components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the SLD of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular stretch of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may impose more requirements about the registrant.

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a hosting package where you have to accommodate it. Thus, when you type it in a web browser, it will exhibit the website files that you host in the account, in other words it will show your site. You can have a domain name registered with a specific registrar and receive the hosting service from another, even though lots of web hosting companies offer both services and it is more convenient to manage all services from the same website hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name server records. Each hosting company has at least two name servers - ns1.starthosts.net and ns2.starthosts.net, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain name offers you the option to change the name servers and point the domain to one hosting vendor or another.

The Need of Stable Website Hosting Services

The moment the domain name is pointed to a specific domain hosting corporation and is added to their web servers, you will obtain a number of online services. The most crucial one is that the web page files that you host on the web server will now be accessible when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up email address accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or an e-mail client to administer them. Whether you own a personal or a corporate web page, being accessible online and being allowed to set up email address accounts with your domain name are the two most essential things that come with a website hosting plan. If you administer a business web site – it will single out your business before your web site visitors or clients. For that reason you need a reliable hosting vendor that will offer a dependable and stable web hosting service.
