Reasonably Priced Hosting Services for Your TLDs

There are 2 features you need in order to open a website. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your site when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a website hosting package, which is inherently the hard disk storage space on a web server where the web site files will be situated, plus several more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 linked, yet separate solutions, and you need them both to have an operational site.

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 example. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it is made of two entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can pick the SLD of the domain to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a finite number of TLDs to pick from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular span of time between 1 and ten yrs. They may have more stipulations in regard to the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Services

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting account where you have to include it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will open the content that you host in the account, i.e. it will display your website. You can have a domain name registered with a particular provider and obtain the hosting service from another, although numerous hosting firms provide both services and it is more convenient to administer everything from one and the same web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting plan are different services, you have to point the domain name to the server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to change a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named nameservers. Each hosting vendor has at least two name servers - ns1.lcsitmediahosting.com and ns2.lcsitmediahosting.com, for instance. The web hosting CP that you utilize for your domain gives you the chance to alter the nameservers and point the domain name to one web hosting provider or another.

The Need of Stable web hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain is pointed to a given domain hosting vendor and is added to their servers, you will get a number of web services. The most important one is that the web page files that you host on the web server will now be available online when you write your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up email mailbox accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail client to manage them. Whether you have a personal or a business web page, being online and being enabled to set up email boxes with your domain name are the two most important options that you obtain with a web hosting account. If you administer a business online portal – it will represent your business before your website visitors or clients. For this reason you demand a trustworthy host that will deliver a dependable and steady web hosting service.
