Cheap Hosting Plans for Your Top-Level Domains

There are 2 features you require so as to kick off a web page. The first one is a domain name that will show your website when you write it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is primarily the storage space on a web hosting server where the web site files will be situated, plus several more features that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting package are 2 connected, yet different solutions, and you require them both so as to have a running web portal.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the web address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it includes two constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned instance, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can select the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that is available for registration, there is a fixed number of TLDs to pick from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed interval of time between one and 10 years. They may include more preconditions concerning the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting account where you have to include it. In such a way, when you type it in a browser, it will display the content that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web site. You can have a domain name registered with a certain provider and receive the hosting service from another, although many web hosting firms provide both services and it is more time-saving to manage all services from one single Control Panel user interface. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting account are different services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you need to alter a certain setting, or record, of the domain - the commonly named NS records. Each hosting corporation has at least two name servers - ns1.bmkhost.uk and ns2.bmkhost.uk, for instance. The website hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain offers you the chance to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one web hosting provider or another.

The Necessity for Stable website hosting Solutions

The moment the domain is pointed to a specific domain hosting provider and is added to their web hosting servers, you will obtain different web services. The most essential one is that the web page files that you keep on the web server will now be displayed when you write your domain in a browser. You will also be able to establish e-mailbox accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail user agent to tackle them. Whether you administer a personal or a business web page, being online and being enabled to set up mails with your domain name are the two most fundamental options that come with a web hosting account. In case you administer a business online portal – it will single out your business before your website visitors or customers. For this reason you require a trustworthy web hosting service provider that will offer a reliable and stable web hosting solution.
