Moderately Priced Hosting Solutions for Your Domains

There are two entities you demand in order to own a web page. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your web portal when you write it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting account, which is basically the data storage space on a web hosting server where the site files will be located, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain and the web hosting account are two connected, yet different services, and you require both of them to have an operational web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it consists of 2 constituents – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the TLD. While you can choose the SLD of the domain to be anything that has not been registered yet, there is a finite 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 years. They may entail more preconditions with respect to the registrant.

Domain Hosting Services

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting package where you have to include it. Thus, when you type it in a web browser, it will exhibit the web content that you host in the account, in other words it will show your site. You can have a domain registered with one provider and obtain the hosting service from another, even though lots of web hosting service providers provide both solutions and it is more convenient to handle everything from one and the same web hosting CP GUI. Either way, since the domain name registration and the website hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to change a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named NS records. Each web host has at least 2 name servers - ns1.mnistrat.co.uk and ns2.mnistrat.co.uk, for example. The website hosting CP that you have for your domain name gives you the opportunity to alter the name server records and point the domain name to one web hosting company or another.

The Need of Stable web hosting Solutions

The moment the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting vendor and is added to their web hosting servers, you will obtain a number of online services. The most important one is that the web page files that you keep on the hosting server will now be shown when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to establish electronic mail accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to tackle them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate online portal, being available online and being permitted to use e-mail address accounts with your domain are the two most essential options that come with a web hosting package. If you own a corporate web portal – it will represent your business before your web site visitors or clients. That is the reason why you need a trustworthy web hosting firm that will offer a reliable and stable hosting service.
