Moderately Priced Hosting Plans for Your Domain Names

There are two things you require in order to own a web site. The first one is a domain name that will display your web site when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a hosting package, which is basically the hard disk storage space on a web server where the web site files will be situated, plus several more services that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting package are two related, yet separate solutions, and you require both of them in order to have an operational web site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the web address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it includes two entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can select the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular span of time between one and ten yrs. They may include additional prerequisites about the registrant.

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting account where you have to add it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will show the web site files that you host in the account, in other words it will exhibit your online portal. You can have a domain registered with a certain registrar and receive the hosting service from another, although many hosting vendors provide both services and it is more user-friendly to manage all services from one and the same website hosting CP user interface. Either way, since the domain name registration and the website hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to alter a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named nameservers. Each company has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.starthosts.net and ns2.starthosts.net, for instance. The web hosting CP that you utilize for your domain offers you the possibility to alter the name servers and point the domain to one hosting service provider or another.

The Need of Dependable Web Hosting Services

As soon as the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting service provider and is added to their web servers, you will receive various online services. The most essential one is that the web page files that you host on the web server will now be available online when you write your domain in a browser. You will also be able to establish emails such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to administer them. Whether you own a personal or a business web site, being online and being permitted to set up e-mail box accounts with your domain name are the two most essential options that you receive with a web hosting plan. If you have a business site – it will identify your business before your visitors or customers. That is the reason why you need a reliable hosting vendor that will furnish a reliable and steady web hosting service.
