Cheap Web Hosting Plans for Your Domains

There are 2 features you require so as to launch a web site. The first one is a domain name that will open your site when you write it in a web browser, and the other one is a website hosting package, which is fundamentally the disk space on a hosting server where the web page files will be placed, plus a few more features that it is offering. The domain name and the web hosting package are two associated, yet different services, and you require them both so as to have a functioning web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the address for the website: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four characters long and it comprises two components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the TLD. While you can pick the SLD of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a set number of top-level domain names to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a given interval of time between one and ten yrs. They may have more prerequisites with respect to the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting account where you have to accommodate it. In this way, when you write it in a browser, it will open the web page files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your site. You can have a domain registered with a specific provider and receive the hosting service from another, even though many web hosting companies offer both solutions and it is more user-friendly to handle everything from one website hosting Control Panel interface. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain name to the hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to change a particular setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named name server records. Each web hosting supplier has at least 2 name servers - ns1.tigerhosts.eu and ns2.tigerhosts.eu, for example. The website hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain gives you the chance to change the name servers and point the domain to one hosting distributor or another.

The Demand for Reliable web hosting Services

Once the domain is pointed to a concrete domain hosting service provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will get several online services. The most crucial one is that the web page files that you accommodate on the server will now be displayed when you type your domain in a web browser. You will also be able to set up e-mail address accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or an email client to tackle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate website, being online and being able to set up e-mail accounts with your domain are the two most essential things that you get with a web hosting plan. In case you own a corporate site – it will represent your business before your web page visitors or clients. For that reason you require a stable web host that will provide a fast and steady web hosting solution.
