Cheap Hosting Plans for Your Domain Names

There are 2 things you require in order to own a website. The first one is a domain name that will display your web portal when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a hosting account, which is inherently the disk storage space on a server where the web site files will be located, plus a few more features that are included in it. The domain name and the web hosting account are two related, yet different solutions, and you demand both of them in order to have a working site.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric combination that you will choose to be the web address for the web site: my-best-domain.com, for instance. A domain can be up to 64 characters long and it contains two constituents – a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). In the above example, my-best-domain is the second-level domain name, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can select the Second-Level Domain of the domain name to be anything that has not been registered yet, there is a certain number of TLDs to select from. The top-level domain names can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain period of time between 1 and ten years. They may have additional prerequisites about the registrant.

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you demand a web hosting plan where you have to include it. In such a way, when you write it in a browser, it will open the web page files that you host in the account, in other words it will open your web page. You can have a domain registered with a certain company and get the hosting service from another, although a lot of hosts provide both services and it is more user-friendly to handle everything from a single web hosting CP GUI. Either way, since the domain name registration and the web hosting package are different services, you have to point the domain name to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To accomplish that, you have to change a certain setting, or record, of the domain name - the commonly named name servers. Each hosting corporation has at least 2 name servers - ns1.khmerelite.us and ns2.khmerelite.us, for instance. The web hosting Control Panel that you utilize for your domain name offers you the opportunity to modify the name server records and point the domain name to one hosting corporation or another.

The Demand for Dependable website hosting Services

The moment the domain is pointed to a particular domain hosting provider and is added to their web hosting servers, you will get various web services. The most important one is that the web site files that you host on the web hosting server will now be shown when you type your domain name in a browser. You will also be able to set up electronic mails like name@my-best-domain.com and utilize webmail or an e-mail client to handle them. Whether you have a personal or a corporate site, being available online and being enabled to use electronic mail accounts with your domain name are the two most significant options that you receive with a website hosting plan. If you manage a business site – it will represent your business before your visitors or customers. This is the reason why you require a trustworthy hosting service provider that will offer a fast and stable website hosting service.
