Low-Price Hosting Solutions for Your Domain Names

There are two entities you require so as to host a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your site when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a website hosting account, which is principally the hard disk storage space on a web server where the website files will be situated, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting package are two associated, yet separate services, and you require them both in order to have a functioning web page.

What is a Domain?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the web address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it comprises two pieces – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned illustration, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a certain 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 given stretch of time between one and ten yrs. They may entail more specifications with regard to the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting account where you have to include it. In this way, when you type it in a web browser, it will show the web page files that you host in the account, i.e. it will open your website. You can have a domain name registered with a given provider and receive the hosting service from another, although numerous providers provide both services and it is more user-friendly to manage everything from the same website hosting CP interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the website hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to alter a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called nameservers. Each web hosting distributor has at least two nameservers - ns1.www.unlicloud.com and ns2.www.unlicloud.com, for instance. The web hosting Control Panel that you have for your domain name offers you the option to modify the nameservers and point the domain to one web host or another.

The Demand for Dependable website hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting supplier and is added to their web servers, you will receive different web services. The most important one is that the site files that you have on the hosting server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to create e-mail accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or a mail client to tackle them. Whether you have a personal or a business web site, being online and being enabled to set up mail addresses with your domain are the two most cardinal options that you obtain with a website hosting plan. In case you have a corporate site – it will single out your business before your visitors or clients. That is why you demand a stable hosting service provider that will supply a reliable and steady web hosting solution.
