The Dhaka Times Desk Every day we use different websites for different needs. But many do not know what domain and hosting actually is?
Today we will know what is domain and hosting? Find out what they are actually used for, as well as things to consider before buying domains and hosting.
domain
Every website has a specific IP address. But it is difficult to remember the website by IP. Therefore domain names are used instead of IP addresses for ease of remembering.
For example: We do not find Google with www.google.com. Find Facebook again with www.facebook.com. The name with which a person will visit your website is basically the domain of your website.
Domains are not limited to .com, but different types of domains are used by people on different websites. For example, .org is used for organization, .net is used for networking sites (www.webhostbd.com), .info is used for information sites, etc.
hosting
After purchasing a domain, you must purchase hosting to create a site. You can never make a website live on the internet with just a domain. When you buy a domain you also buy a name for your website. Now you have to keep the data on your website on a PC (server) that will be active 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. This facility is provided by hosting companies. They provide this service for a monthly or yearly fee. Different companies provide hosting at different prices.
Hosting companies sell different types of hosting. Like- Share Hosting, VPS, Dedicated Server etc etc. Prices also vary by package (according to capacity). You need to purchase hosting space as per your requirement.
There are many domestic and foreign companies that offer domain and hosting services through various packages. Choose a package as per your requirement and buy it. You will decide the domain name according to the website you want to create. The hosting package should be chosen according to the amount of content of the site. However, before buying domain-hosting, you must know the renewal fee.
