Cheap Hosting Plans for Your Top-Level Domains
There are two entities you need in order to own a website. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your website when you write it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is basically the disk space on a web hosting server where the web page files will be located, plus a few more features that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting package are 2 interconnected, yet separate services, and you need them both to have a working web page.
What is a Domain?
A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four symbols long and it includes two parts – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a finite number of TLDs to choose from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain period of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may include additional requirements in regard to the registrant.
Domain Name Hosting Solutions
As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting plan where you have to include it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will open the web page files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web portal. You can have a domain name registered with a certain provider and receive the hosting service from another, even though a lot of web hosting corporations offer both services and it is more user-friendly to administer everything from the same website hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, because the domain registration and the web hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to modify a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each web hosting firm has at least two name servers - ns1.digitalnetwork.id and ns2.digitalnetwork.id, for example. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain name gives you the opportunity to modify the nameservers and point the domain to one web hosting vendor or another.
The Necessity for Reliable web hosting Solutions
As soon as the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting distributor and is added to their hosting servers, you will receive various online services. The most important one is that the website files that you keep on the hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to establish e-mails like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an email client to handle them. Whether you own a personal or a corporate website, being online and being enabled to create email address accounts with your domain are the two most fundamental options that come with a web hosting plan. In case you administer a corporate site – it will single out your business before your website visitors or customers. For that reason you require a dependable provider that will deliver a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
