Half-Priced Web Hosting Packages for Your Top-Level Domain Names
There are 2 entities you require in order to host a web page. The first one is a domain name that will open your web site when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a hosting package, which is principally the hard disk storage space on a hosting server where the web site files will be located, plus a few more features that come with it. The domain and the web hosting plan are two connected, yet different solutions, and you demand them both to have a functioning website.
What is a Domain?
A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the web address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four characters long and it consists of 2 pieces – a Top-Level Domain (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 top-level domain name. While you can pick the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that has not been registered yet, there is a finite number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given interval of time between one and 10 years. They may include other prerequisites with regard to the registrant.
Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions
As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting package where you have to add it. Thus, when you type it in a browser, it will exhibit the content that you have in the account, in other words it will display your web site. You can have a domain registered with one provider and get the hosting service from another, even though a lot of companies offer both solutions and it is more time-saving to handle all services from one web hosting CP tool. Either way, since the domain name registration and the website hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the web 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 vendor has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.store.tiptoptechsolutions.com and ns2.store.tiptoptechsolutions.com, for instance. The web hosting CP that you have for your domain offers you the possibility to alter the name servers and point the domain name to one web hosting corporation or another.
The Necessity for Reliable Hosting Services
Once the domain is pointed to a concrete domain hosting provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will obtain a number of web services. The most important one is that the web site files that you host on the server will now be exhibited when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to set up electronic mails such as name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to tackle them. Whether you own a personal or a corporate web portal, being online and being able to use e-mail box accounts with your domain name are the two most pivotal things that come with a hosting package. If you run a business website – it will represent your business before your web site visitors or customers. This is the reason why you require a reliable web hosting company that will provide a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
