Cheap Web Hosting Services for Your Domain Names

There are 2 things you demand in order to establish a web page. The first one is a domain name that will open your site when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a website hosting package, which is principally the hard disk space on a server where the website files will be placed, plus several more features that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 connected, yet different solutions, and you demand both of them in order to have a working site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the web address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it contains 2 entities – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that has not been registered yet, there is a set number of Top-Level Domains to choose from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed interval of time between 1 and ten years. They may include more prerequisites in regard to the registrant.

Domain Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting account where you have to include it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will exhibit the site files that you have in the account, i.e. it will show your site. You can have a domain registered with a given company and receive the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting vendors provide both solutions and it is more convenient to handle everything from one and the same hosting CP user interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain name to the web 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 company has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.pixelspeck.co.uk and ns2.pixelspeck.co.uk, for instance. The hosting CP that you utilize for your domain offers you the option to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one web hosting distributor or another.

The Demand for Stable website hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will receive various services. The most essential one is that the website files that you keep on the hosting server will now be shown when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to set up email boxes such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail user agent to administer them. Whether you administer a personal or a business website, being available online and being able to use mail address accounts with your domain name are the two most fundamental things that you obtain with a web hosting plan. If you run a business website – it will single out your business before your website visitors or customers. That is the reason why you demand a reliable web hosting vendor that will furnish a dependable and steady website hosting solution.
