Discounted Hosting Services for Your TLDs

There are 2 features you need so as to host a website. The first one is a domain name that will open your web portal when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a website hosting package, which is basically the disk storage space on a hosting server where the web site files will be placed, plus a few more services that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting package are 2 interconnected, yet separate solutions, and you require them both to have a working web site.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the web address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it consists of two pieces – 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, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a certain number of top-level domain names to choose from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given spell of time between 1 and ten years. They may have more prerequisites in regard to the registrant.

Domain 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 host it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will exhibit the site files that you have in the account, in other words it will open your web page. You can have a domain registered with a certain provider and obtain the hosting service from another, even though many hosting firms provide both services and it is more time-saving to handle everything from one single web hosting CP tool. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to change a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named nameservers. Each web hosting distributor has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.webhostbear.com and ns2.webhostbear.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you utilize for your domain name offers you the opportunity to change the nameservers and point the domain name to one service provider or another.

The Demand for Stable web hosting Solutions

Once the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting service provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will obtain a number of web services. The most crucial one is that the site files that you accommodate on the web hosting server will now be exhibited when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to establish mail address accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or an e-mail client to tackle them. Whether you run a personal or a business web site, being available online and being allowed to use electronic mail accounts with your domain name are the two most important things that you get with a web hosting package. In case you own a corporate site – it will represent your business before your visitors or customers. That is why you need a reliable host that will offer a fast and stable website hosting service.
