Low-Cost Web Hosting Services for Your Domain Names

There are 2 things you need in order to kick off an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will open your web portal when you type it in a web browser, and the second one is a website hosting account, which is essentially the hard disk space on a hosting server where the website files will be placed, plus a few more features that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting package are two linked, yet separate services, and you demand both of them so as to have a functioning site.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will select to be the address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it involves two constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above illustration, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a fixed number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular stretch of time between 1 and 10 years. They may have other stipulations regarding the registrant.

Domain Web 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 host it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will show the web content that you have in the account, in other words it will exhibit your web portal. You can have a domain name registered with a specific provider and obtain the hosting service from another, even though a lot of hosting companies offer both solutions and it is more time-saving to administer everything from the same web hosting Control Panel user interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the website hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain name to the server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to modify a specific setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called name server records. Each web hosting corporation has at least two nameservers - ns1.zynotekhosting.com and ns2.zynotekhosting.com, for instance. The web hosting Control Panel that you use for your domain gives you the chance to modify the NS records and point the domain to one web hosting supplier or another.

The Necessity for Stable website hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a particular domain hosting vendor and is added to their web hosting servers, you will obtain different services. The most essential one is that the web page files that you host on the hosting server will now be displayed when you type your domain in a browser. You will also be able to establish mail address accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or a mail client to administer them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate site, being available online and being able to use mails with your domain name are the two most important options that you receive with a web hosting account. If you own a business web site – it will represent your business before your web page visitors or customers. That's why you need a trustworthy web host that will deliver a reliable and steady website hosting service.
