Cut-Rate Hosting Solutions for Your Domains

There are two features you demand so as to launch a site. The first one is a domain name that will open your site when you type it in a web browser, and the other one is a web hosting account, which is basically the disk space on a server where the website files will be placed, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting plan are two linked, yet different solutions, and you demand them both so as to have an operational web site.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will choose to be the web address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to sixty four symbols long and it comprises 2 parts – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a finite number of TLDs to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular period of time between 1 and ten years. They may involve additional preconditions in regard to the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Services

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a hosting plan where you have to add it. Thus, when you type it in a browser, it will exhibit the site files that you have in the account, i.e. it will show your web page. You can have a domain name registered with a particular provider and get the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting firms offer both solutions and it is more convenient to manage everything from one web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the website hosting account are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to alter a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named NS records. Each hosting provider has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.www.unlicloud.com and ns2.www.unlicloud.com, for instance. The web hosting CP that you have for your domain name gives you the chance to alter the name server records and point the domain to one web hosting distributor or another.

The Necessity for Dependable Web Hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a certain domain hosting firm and is added to their hosting servers, you will obtain a number of services. The most essential one is that the website files that you accommodate on the web hosting server will now be shown when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to establish electronic mail accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or an e-mail client to handle them. Whether you run a personal or a business website, being online and being allowed to set up e-mail address accounts with your domain are the two most important options that you get with a web hosting plan. In case you own a corporate web page – it will identify your business before your web page visitors or customers. That is the reason why you require a stable web host that will deliver a reliable and steady web hosting service.
