Cut-Rate Hosting Services for Your Domains

There are two items you require so as to own a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your website when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a hosting package, which is basically the hard disk space on a web hosting server where the web page files will be located, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting account are two connected, yet separate services, and you require both of them in order to have a functioning website.

What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 symbols long and it consists of two entities – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned instance, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the top-level domain name. While you can choose the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, 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 fixed spell of time between 1 and 10 years. They may include additional specifications with regard to the registrant.

Domain Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you demand a website hosting account where you have to add it. Thus, when you type it in a browser, it will display the content that you host in the account, in other words it will open your online portal. You can have a domain registered with a given company and get the hosting service from another, although lots of hosting corporations provide both services and it is more time-saving to administer all services from one single website hosting CP interface. Either way, because the domain name registration and the website hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you have to modify a given setting, or record, of the domain name - the so-called nameservers. Each web hosting corporation has at least two nameservers - ns1.www.realtechosting.com and ns2.www.realtechosting.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you have for your domain name gives you the opportunity to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one hosting vendor or another.

The Demand for Reliable web hosting Solutions

As soon as the domain name is pointed to a certain domain hosting provider and is added to their hosting servers, you will get several online services. The most crucial one is that the website files that you keep on the web hosting server will now be exhibited when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to create email addresses such as name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail user agent to tackle them. Whether you run a personal or a corporate web portal, being accessible online and being permitted to set up e-mail boxes with your domain are the two most fundamental options that come with a web hosting package. In case you own a business website – it will identify your business before your visitors or customers. Therefore you need a reliable host that will supply a dependable and stable hosting service.
