Domain and Hosting
Building an online presence is a great way to fuel your business growth. Once you have figured out a business name, your next step is to get it registered offline and online! Bring it to life when you come up with a domain and subsequently, a website.
Domain and hosting are two important components for creating a website.
​
Domain:
-
is the unique address of your website that users type into their browser to access it, like planettech.sg
-
consists of a name and an extension (for example .sg, .com, .net or .org)
-
are registered through domain registrars (such as Exabytes and GoDaddy) and are to be renewed periodically
​
Hosting:
-
is the service that stores your website's files and data on a server, making it accessible on the internet
-
Web hosting providers offer various hosting services such as shared hosting, VPS hosting and dedicated hosting
-
without hosting, your website cannot be viewed online
​
In conclusion, a domain is your website's address while hosting is the space where your website's content is stored and presented to visitors.​
