Low-Price Hosting Packages for Your TLDs

There are two features you need so as to kick off a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will open your web site when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a website hosting account, which is inherently the storage space on a server where the site files will be situated, plus several more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting package are two interconnected, yet separate services, and you demand them both in order to have a running site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it involves two parts – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can choose the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a certain 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 span of time between 1 and 10 years. They may entail other specifications with respect to the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting account where you have to host it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will exhibit the web page files that you have in the account, i.e. it will show your online portal. You can have a domain name registered with a certain provider and get the hosting service from another, although a lot of web hosting distributors provide both services and it is more time-saving to administer everything from one single web hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting plan 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 modify a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named NS records. Each hosting distributor has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.connektiva.com and ns2.connektiva.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you have for your domain offers you the possibility to alter the nameservers and point the domain to one web hosting firm or another.

The Need of Stable web hosting Solutions

Once the domain name is pointed to a given domain hosting vendor and is added to their web hosting servers, you will receive a number of services. The most crucial one is that the web site files that you have on the server will now be shown when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to set up email accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or a mail user agent to administer them. Whether you have a personal or a business site, being online and being able to set up e-mail address accounts with your domain name are the two most essential options that you obtain with a web hosting account. If you host a corporate website – it will single out your business before your web site visitors or customers. That's why you need a dependable provider that will supply a fast and stable hosting solution.
