Half-Priced Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domains

There are 2 things you demand so as to start a site. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your web page when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a web hosting account, which is primarily the storage space on a server where the website files will be located, plus several more services that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting package are 2 connected, yet separate solutions, and you need them both to have a running web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it comprises two entities – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the TLD. While you can select 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 TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain interval of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may entail more specifications with respect to the registrant.

Domain Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting plan where you have to accommodate it. Thus, when you type it in a browser, it will exhibit the website files that you have in the account, in other words it will show your online portal. You can have a domain name registered with one provider and receive the hosting service from another, even though a lot of hosting firms offer both solutions and it is more user-friendly to administer everything from one single web hosting CP user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to change a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each web hosting vendor has at least two nameservers - ns1.rmhhosting.com and ns2.rmhhosting.com, for example. The website hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain offers you the possibility to change the NS records and point the domain to one web hosting service provider or another.

The Need of Stable website hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a concrete domain hosting supplier and is added to their web servers, you will get different services. The most essential one is that the web site files that you host on the web server will now be available online when you write your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to create e-mails such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to handle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate web site, being online and being able to use e-mail address accounts with your domain are the two most significant options that you get with a web hosting package. If you have a business web portal – it will identify your business before your visitors or clients. That is why you require a stable hosting supplier that will provide a fast and steady web hosting solution.
