Cheap Hosting Solutions for Your Domains

There are 2 entities you require so as to host a website. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your site when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a web hosting plan, which is essentially the hard disk space on a web hosting server where the web page files will be located, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting account are two similar, yet different services, and you require both of them in order to have a working web page.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it consists of 2 entities – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can pick the Second-Level Domain of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a finite number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed stretch of time between 1 and ten years. They may have additional prerequisites regarding the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting package where you have to host it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will display the files that you have in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your online portal. You can have a domain registered with a given company and obtain the hosting service from another, even though a lot of hosting vendors offer both solutions and it is more time-saving to handle everything from one and the same web hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the web hosting package are separate services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to change a given setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called NS records. Each web hosting firm has at least two nameservers - ns1.kuwait.gr and ns2.kuwait.gr, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain gives you the chance to alter the NS records and point the domain to one hosting supplier or another.

The Necessity for Trustworthy website hosting Solutions

Once the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting firm and is added to their web servers, you will get different services. The most important one is that the web site files that you accommodate on the web hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to set up e-mail box accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an email client to manage them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate online portal, being accessible online and being enabled to use e-mail box accounts with your domain are the two most important things that you get with a hosting package. If you own a corporate web page – it will identify your business before your web page visitors or clients. For this reason you require a dependable hosting service provider that will provide a dependable and steady website hosting service.
