Hosting VS Domain What is that?

Web Hosting is an account on a computer (aka server) that can store and serve website files via the Internet.

Domain Registration is leasing a human-readable word (e.g., webmaintenanceus.com) that directs people to specific website files via a browser.

As an analogy, a domain is an “address” on the Internet. Hosting is the “land” or space where your website files live.

That’s the short version. But there’s more to web hosting vs. domain registration than their definition.

Web hosting and domain registration are frequently paired together. But it’s important to understand exactly what they do.

Domain Registration

Internet addresses are technically “IP Addresses.” IP addresses are a long series of numbers that make no sense to humans.

So instead of typing in 192.168.0.1.1 to access a website, the website owner can register a domain that will route to that specific IP address.

When you register a domain name, you are leasing it from the Internet Corporation for Names and Numbers (ICANN). ICANN provides domains via approved registrars.

A domain does not do anything on its own. Registration provides you the right to “point” your domain wherever you want.

You can tell it to redirect to another website – But usually, you’ll want it to direct browsers to your website…on your hosting account.

There are 2 ways to register your hosting and domain.

1. The simple way – trust all work to us. We will register it for u! (In this option u will not have access to your hosting control panel)

Place order for hosting (ONLY $75/year WOW!)

2. The hard way – find a hosting provider on your own, choose a hosting package, register, pay. Then find a domain provider on your own, purchase the domain, link it to your hosting provider. You will have to unlock the domain before parking it to your hosting account.
