Cheap Web Hosting Packages for Your TLDs

There are two entities you demand in order to own a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will open your online portal when you write it in a browser, and the other one is a website hosting package, which is primarily the hard disk storage space on a server where the website files will be located, plus several more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting package are two interconnected, yet separate solutions, and you need them both in order to have a functioning website.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it is composed of two entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can select the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a finite number of TLDs to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed spell of time between 1 and ten years. They may involve other specifications concerning the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting account where you have to host it. Thus, when you type it in a web browser, it will show the content that you host in the account, in other words it will display your online portal. You can have a domain registered with a specific company and obtain the hosting service from another, although many hosting providers provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to administer all services from the same website hosting CP interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the hosting package 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 need to modify a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named NS records. Each hosting supplier has at least 2 name servers - ns1.hosting.luukahost.com and ns2.hosting.luukahost.com, for example. The website hosting CP that you have for your domain gives you the opportunity to modify the nameservers and point the domain to one hosting corporation or another.

The Necessity for Trustworthy website hosting Services

The moment the domain name is pointed to a given domain hosting provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will obtain several online services. The most important one is that the site files that you have on the web server will now be exhibited when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to create e-mailboxes like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail user agent to handle them. Whether you administer a personal or a corporate web page, being accessible online and being enabled to create email address accounts with your domain name are the two most cardinal options that you get with a web hosting plan. If you run a corporate website – it will identify your business before your website visitors or clients. That's why you need a trustworthy web hosting distributor that will offer a reliable and steady website hosting service.
