7. Choosing Your Domain Name And Web Hosting Partners
from:If you are a web master, then it is quite critical for you to find the right domain name. It is also quite important that you are able to have a noticeable domain name on the net, otherwise most of the search engines will not be able to catch sight of you. The concept of a domain name is quite simple; it is a specific address on the internet used as a virtual identity almost like a telephone number which can be used to locate you or reach you. Domain names are just the simplification of the internet protocol addresses. These names have been assigned by the DNS. It is tough to memorize these addresses, which are in numbers, hence the concept of domain names. As with a telephone number, domain names are unique and there is no scope for duplication here. It is possible to find out the availability of the domain name during registration, and you can then go ahead and choose one which has not been claimed by anybody else thus far.
Choosing a web hosting company and finding the right domain name for your website are two of the most important factors to be considered in web development. Usually, webmasters face the unique problem of finding the right domain names for themselves. You can either go through the same company for your domain registration and web hosting or opt to get this done through different entities as well. There is no compulsion here. Some may choose to settle for one agency only for the sake of convenience of dealing with a one point contact which is able to provide end-to-end solutions where your running around time to get things done is minimized.
There are however, a few disadvantages and advantages of having the same web host as a
domain name company. One advantage is that you will have your passwords, bills and critical information stored with one company only. If you order the domain name from the web hosting company, then you may not be required to pay for it or you may get it at attractive discounts depending on what the company has on offer for such deals. Another benefit is that you are not required to renew the license with two different people after one year of domain name registration.
The problem with choosing the same service provider is that you might not get a great deal with both the services. You may have a great domain name but the hosting service may not be up to par and you may not get the desired domain name with a hosting service which offers excellent service. Many people do recommend that it is always advisable to choose different service providers for your domain name registration and web hosting requirements. Regardless of various opinions, the success of your website and your business depends on how well you research into the various options available and the service levels across the domain name registration and web hosting industry to find the right web development partner.
