Cheap Hosting Packages for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 things you require in order to launch a site. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your site when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a hosting account, which is essentially the hard disk storage space on a web hosting server where the website files will be situated, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting account are 2 connected, yet separate services, and you demand both of them to have an operational online portal.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four characters long and it contains 2 constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the aforementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the Second-Level Domain of the domain to be anything that is available for registration, 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 particular interval of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may include other requirements in regard to the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a hosting account where you have to include it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will open the web page files that you have in the account, in other words it will open your site. You can have a domain registered with a specific registrar and receive the hosting service from another, even though a lot of web hosting providers offer both services and it is more time-saving to handle all services from the same hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the website hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to modify a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named name servers. Each hosting distributor has at least 2 name servers - ns1.hosting.etesla.gr and ns2.hosting.etesla.gr, for instance. The hosting CP that you use for your domain name offers you the chance to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one hosting distributor or another.

The Necessity for Trustworthy Hosting Services

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a specific domain hosting service provider and is added to their web servers, you will obtain different web services. The most essential one is that the site files that you keep on the web server will now be exhibited when you type your domain in a 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 manage them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate web site, being online and being allowed to set up e-mailboxes with your domain name are the two most essential things that come with a website hosting plan. If you administer a corporate web page – it will single out your business before your website visitors or clients. That's why you require a dependable web hosting distributor that will furnish a dependable and stable website hosting service.
