Cheap Hosting Solutions for Your Top-Level Domain Names
There are 2 items you need in order to have an online portal. The first one is a domain name that will show your website when you write it in a browser, and the second one is a website hosting account, which is principally the disk space on a hosting server where the site files will be situated, plus a few more services that are included in it. The domain and the web hosting account are two related, yet different solutions, and you need them both so as to have a working site.
What is a Domain?
We offer more than 130 tlds
A domain name is the alpha-numeric name that you will pick to be the web address for the web portal: my-best-domain.com, for example. A domain can be up to sixty four characters long and it is made of 2 constituents – a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (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 of the domain name to be anything that is open for registration, there is a finite number of Top-Level Domains to select from. The TLDs can be generic (gTLDs) or country-code (ccTLDs), and can be registered for a certain span of time between one and 10 years. They may impose more specifications in relation to the registrant.

As the domain name is just a hostname and nothing more than that, you require a web hosting account where you have to host it. In this way, when you write it in a web browser, it will display the website files that you have in the account, i.e. it will exhibit your web portal. You can have a domain registered with a given provider and obtain the hosting service from another, although numerous web hosting service providers provide both solutions and it is more user-friendly to administer all services from one single website hosting CP user interface. Either way, since the domain registration and the website hosting plan are separate services, you have to point the domain to the web hosting server where it will be added as hosted. To achieve that, you have to alter a certain setting, or record, of the domain - the so-called NS records. Each hosting service provider has at least two name servers - ns1.azeerhosting.com and ns2.azeerhosting.com, for example. The web hosting CP that you have for your domain name offers you the opportunity to modify the NS records and point the domain name to one web hosting supplier or another.
The Necessity for Dependable Web Hosting Solutions
As soon as the domain is pointed to a certain domain hosting firm and is added to their servers, you will receive different services. The most crucial one is that the site files that you keep on the server will now be shown when you write your domain in a browser. You will also be able to create mail accounts like name@my-best-domain.com and avail of webmail or an email client to manage them. Whether you host a personal or a business web portal, being online and being allowed to create e-mailboxes with your domain name are the two most essential things that you obtain with a hosting account. If you own a corporate web portal – it will single out your business before your visitors or customers. Therefore you need a trustworthy web hosting supplier that will provide a dependable and stable hosting solution.
