Budget Hosting Solutions for Your TLDs

There are 2 things you demand so as to start a web site. The first one is a domain name that will exhibit your website when you type it in a browser, and the other one is a website hosting plan, which is inherently the hard disk storage space on a server where the site files will be placed, plus a few more services that come with it. The domain name and the web hosting account are 2 related, yet separate solutions, and you demand both of them in order to have a working site.

What is a Domain?

A domain is the alpha-numeric name that you will select to be the address for the online portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain name can be up to 64 characters long and it contains 2 components – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). In the abovementioned example, my-best-domain is the SLD, and .com is the Top-Level Domain. While you can choose the SLD of the domain name to be anything that has not been taken yet, there is a certain number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The Top-Level Domains can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a fixed stretch of time between one and ten yrs. They may contain more requirements about the registrant.

Domain Name Web Hosting Solutions

As the domain is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you need a web hosting account where you have to add it. Thus, when you type it in a browser, it will exhibit the content that you host in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web site. You can have a domain name registered with a particular registrar and get the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting vendors offer both services and it is more convenient to administer all services from one and the same web hosting CP tool. Either way, since the domain registration and the website hosting package are separate services, you have to point the domain to the web server where it will be added as hosted. To perform that, you need to modify a given setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called NS records. Each host has at least 2 nameservers - ns1.arkservers.biz and ns2.arkservers.biz, for instance. The web hosting CP that you have for your domain name gives you the possibility to modify the NS records and point the domain to one web hosting firm or another.

The Need of Reliable web hosting Services

As soon as the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting supplier and is added to their hosting servers, you will get a number of services. The most important one is that the web site files that you have on the web server will now be accessible when you type your domain name in a web browser. You will also be able to create mailbox accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and make use of webmail or an e-mail client to administer them. Whether you have a personal or a corporate web portal, being available online and being able to set up electronic mailboxes with your domain are the two most essential options that come with a web hosting plan. If you have a business web page – it will single out your business before your web site visitors or customers. That's why you demand a dependable web hosting service provider that will offer a dependable and steady website hosting service.
