Cheap Hosting Packages for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 entities you require in order to launch a web site. The first one is a domain name that will open your online portal when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is fundamentally the disk space on a web server where the web site files will be placed, plus several more services that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting package are two connected, yet different solutions, and you require both of them in order to have a working online portal.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it is made of two components – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a fixed number of top-level domain names to select from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular period of time between 1 and ten years. They may include additional requirements when it comes to the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Services

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting package where you have to include it. Thus, when you write it in a web browser, it will display the content that you have in the account, in other words it will open your web site. You can have a domain registered with one provider and obtain the hosting service from another, although numerous providers offer both solutions and it is more convenient to manage all services from one and the same web hosting CP user interface. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you need to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called NS records. Each hosting service provider has at least two name servers - ns1.kalerhosting.com and ns2.kalerhosting.com, for example. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain name gives you the opportunity to change the NS records and point the domain to one web hosting supplier or another.

The Demand for Stable web hosting Services

The moment the domain name is pointed to a given domain hosting service provider and is added to their web servers, you will get a number of online services. The most crucial one is that the website files that you accommodate on the hosting server will now be available online when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to establish e-mail addresses such as name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or a mail user agent to administer them. Whether you administer a personal or a business web site, being available online and being enabled to set up electronic mail accounts with your domain name are the two most significant things that you get with a web hosting plan. If you own a business web site – it will single out your business before your website visitors or clients. That is the reason why you need a dependable web hosting service provider that will deliver a reliable and stable website hosting solution.
