Cheap Hosting Solutions for Your TLDs

There are 2 features you require in order to run a web page. The first one is a domain name that will open your web portal when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting plan, which is basically the storage space on a server where the site files will be located, plus several more services that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 connected, yet different solutions, and you require them both in order to have a working website.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it consists of two entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can pick the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to choose from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed spell of time between one and ten yrs. They may involve more prerequisites concerning the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you need a website hosting account where you have to add it. In such a way, when you write it in a web browser, it will display the site files that you host in the account, in other words it will display your site. You can have a domain name registered with a particular provider and get the hosting service from another, although a lot of web hosting providers provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to manage all services from one web hosting Control Panel tool. Either way, because the domain registration and the hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to change a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called name server records. Each hosting provider has at least 2 name servers - ns1.www.ebdhosting.com and ns2.www.ebdhosting.com, for example. The CP that you have for your domain name gives you the opportunity to modify the name servers and point the domain name to one web hosting provider or another.

The Need of Stable web hosting Services

As soon as the domain is pointed to a concrete domain hosting company and is added to their web servers, you will get various online services. The most crucial one is that the web page files that you host on the web server will now be exhibited when you type your domain in a browser.

Whether you administer a personal or a corporate online portal, being accessible online and being enabled to set up mail addresses with your domain are the two most significant options that come with a website hosting account.
