Cut-Rate Hosting Services for Your Top-Level Domain Names


There are 2 entities you require in order to run a web portal. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your site when you type it in a browser, and the second one is a web hosting plan, which is inherently the hard disk storage space on a web hosting server where the web page files will be located, plus several more features that it is offering. The domain and the web hosting plan are 2 related, yet different services, and you require both of them so as to have a working online portal.

What is a Domain?

We offer more than 140 tlds

Prices Starts From: 0.00 /yr

A domain name is the alpha-numeric combination that you will pick to be the web address for the web page: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it involves two constituents – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the aforementioned example, my-best-domain is the Second-Level Domain, and .com is the TLD. While you can select the SLD of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a fixed number of Top-Level Domains to pick 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 one and 10 yrs. They may entail additional prerequisites regarding the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain name is just a name and nothing more than that, you require a website hosting account where you have to add it. In such a way, when you type it in a web browser, it will display the web site files that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your online portal. You can have a domain name registered with a certain provider and obtain the hosting service from another, even though lots of hosting distributors offer both solutions and it is more time-saving to manage everything from a single web hosting CP user interface. Either way, because the domain registration and the hosting package 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 need to alter a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named NS records. Each web hosting corporation has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.gom-networks.com and ns2.gom-networks.com, for example. The web hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain offers you the option to change the nameservers and point the domain to one hosting corporation or another.

The Need of Dependable Hosting Services

The moment the domain name is pointed to a certain domain hosting vendor and is added to their web servers, you will get different online services. The most important one is that the web site files that you have on the web hosting server will now be displayed when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to establish email box accounts such as name@my-best-domain.com and use webmail or a mail client to manage them. Whether you host a personal or a corporate website, being online and being permitted to use e-mail address accounts with your domain are the two most cardinal options that come with a web hosting account. If you run a corporate website – it will represent your business before your web site visitors or clients. This is the reason why you require a trustworthy web host that will furnish a dependable and steady web hosting solution.
