Introduction
If you have built a web site and want to launch it on the internet, you need to know that you will require both domain and hosting. These are two crucial requirements without which a web site cannot be accessed over the internet.
Domain Names
Domain names represent a unique address for a specific web site. This address will be the identifier on the World Wide Web. Good domain names belong to either of the two categories. Either a branded name which is heavily linked to the company that has it or to one of its products or the second type of domain names which consists in a discoverable domain, made out of phrases that people may use in search queries without them thinking about the respective company. A good way for you to make your domain and hosting easy to remember is by choosing a short and creative domain name. Also it is recommended to use the .com extension because of its legitimate mark and because it is recognized easily in more circles of interest. A good and safe way to choose your domain is by respecting the law of the 4 Cs. The first C comes from Character – the shorter the better. The second C is from Commerce – a domain’s value is derived from its potential to sale, derive traffic and deliver revenue to a business. Therefore it should be marketable. The third C is the preferred extension (.com) and the last C represents Comparables. Compare your domain name with others in your field of action in the relevant domain sold history to weight the market value.
Web hosting
The web hosting service represents the place where you put all your files. Also known as a server, it has to be fast and reliable. This makes it possible for anyone to access them through your domain name. This way is how the domain and hosting have a connection. When it comes to web hosting, it’s always worth your time to search for web hosts that provide support services and who have other advantages in the same package as hosting. Such advantages may be fast servers, very high or even unlimited bandwidth allocation, firewalls, the ability to offer periodical usage statistics, monitoring or daily backups. There are also dedicated servers which are ideal foe eCommerce, multimedia or gaming. These dedicated servers are admin based meaning they require admin access to run anything on the server.
Registration
When it comes to domain and hosting it is very important that a domain name be registered. If it is not, you will need to use a registrar which will give to you exclusive rights to that particular domain until it expires, is cancelled, or transferred to another domain registrant. Also the most used tool when it comes to searching domain names is the Domain Name System (DNS). It will help you look for domain preferences and help the users to get to different web sites on the internet. Registering your domain and hosting is the first step you must do after creating them.
