Discounted Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domain Names

There are 2 entities you need so as to kick off a web site. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your website when you write it in a web browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is primarily the disk space on a server where the website files will be placed, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting package are 2 related, yet separate solutions, and you demand them both in order to have a running web site.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the site: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to sixty four symbols long and it is made of 2 constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the second-level domain name of the domain to be anything that is free to register, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to pick from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a particular span of time between 1 and 10 yrs. They may have other prerequisites in regard to the registrant.

Domain Name Hosting Services

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting plan where you have to include it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will show the content that you host in the account, i.e. it will show your website. You can have a domain registered with a specific registrar and obtain the hosting service from another, even though a lot of web hosting companies offer both solutions and it is more convenient to administer all services from one and the same web hosting Control Panel GUI. Either way, since the domain registration and the web hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you need to modify a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named name server records. Each web hosting distributor has at least 2 name servers - ns1.rthost.biz and ns2.rthost.biz, for example. The website hosting CP that you use for your domain gives you the possibility to alter the nameservers and point the domain to one provider or another.

The Necessity for Stable Hosting Services

Once the domain name is pointed to a particular domain hosting distributor and is added to their web servers, you will obtain several web services. The most essential one is that the website files that you accommodate on the web server will now be shown when you write your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to establish e-mail accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an email client to tackle them. Whether you manage a personal or a corporate site, being available online and being enabled to create e-mailboxes with your domain are the two most significant things that you get with a web hosting package. In case you have a corporate website – it will identify your business before your website visitors or clients. That is why you need a dependable hosting vendor that will provide a fast and stable web hosting service.
