Affordable Web Hosting Packages for Your Domain Names

There are two entities you demand in order to host a website. The first one is a domain name that will show your web page when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting account, which is inherently the hard disk space on a hosting server where the web site files will be located, plus several more features that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 interconnected, yet separate services, and you need them both in order to have an operational website.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it involves 2 entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the SLD of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a fixed number of top-level domain names to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain period of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may contain other prerequisites about the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting package where you have to add it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will exhibit the web page files that you have in the account, in other words it will open your web page. You can have a domain name registered with a particular registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, even though lots of web hosting vendors offer both services and it is more convenient to handle everything from one hosting CP tool. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting package are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named NS records. Each web hosting distributor has at least two nameservers - ns1.clujnet.com and ns2.clujnet.com, for instance. The web hosting CP that you use for your domain offers you the possibility to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one hosting distributor or another.

The Demand for Stable Hosting Services

Once the domain is pointed to a concrete domain hosting provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will receive several online services. The most crucial one is that the web site files that you accommodate on the server will now be displayed when you write your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to establish emails like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or a mail client to tackle them. Whether you own a personal or a business web site, being available online and being enabled to create e-mails with your domain name are the two most fundamental options that you receive with a website hosting package. In case you manage a corporate online portal – it will single out your business before your web site visitors or customers. For that reason you demand a trustworthy web hosting vendor that will offer a fast and steady hosting service.
