Cheap Web Hosting Packages for Your Top-Level Domain Names
There are 2 entities you require in order to own a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will display your site when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is fundamentally the hard disk space on a hosting server where the website files will be placed, plus a few more features that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting plan are 2 connected, yet different solutions, and you demand them both so as to have a functioning website.
What is a Domain?
We offer more than 160 tlds
A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it is composed of two parts – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that is free to register, there is a fixed number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed interval of time between one and ten yrs. They may involve other prerequisites regarding the registrant.

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting account where you have to add it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will show the web site files that you have in the account, in other words it will display your site. You can have a domain name registered with a given provider and get the hosting service from another, although many hosting service providers provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to manage all services from one web hosting CP tool. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To do that, you have to change a specific setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called NS records. Each hosting company has at least two nameservers - ns1.outraged-hosting.com and ns2.outraged-hosting.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain name offers you the option to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one web hosting firm or another.
The Need of Trustworthy web hosting Services
Once the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting supplier and is added to their servers, you will get several web services. The most important one is that the website files that you host on the server will now be available online when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to set up mailboxes such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an email client to handle them. Whether you manage a personal or a business online portal, being available online and being permitted to use e-mail box accounts with your domain name are the two most essential things that come with a website hosting plan. In case you have a corporate web page – it will single out your business before your web site visitors or clients. That is why you demand a dependable web hosting corporation that will deliver a fast and stable website hosting service.
