How to make a website live

A web hosting package and a domain name are needed in order to launch the website. The same service provider may be used to register both the domain and the hosting plan. Any domain name, such as.com,.net,.org,.in,.co.in, and so on, can be registered. To enable your website to be accessible to all internet users, simply follow the three simple procedures described below after registering your domain name and hosting package.

Three easy steps to make the website live:-

1. Upload all your website data on the hosting server using FTP client like WSFTP or FileZilla. The FTP details will be provided by the hosting provider.
2. Update the DNS record of the domain so that it resolves from the server where you have uploaded the website data. You will get the DNS details from the hosting provider. The format of the name servers is like – ns1.xyzdomain.com and ns2.xyzdomain.com. After updating the name servers it takes around 24 – 48 Hours for the domain to resolve globally.
3. After uploading the website data on the server and updating the DNS records, if your website is accessible to others but not working on your machine contact your service provider and check if your IP address is blocked in the server firewall. For security reasons, the server blocks the IP address if invalid FTP/Control panel log in attempts are made.

These are the fundamental procedures for launching a website on the internet. Please get in touch with the hosting company right once if the website experiences any errors. If you use the Hostvento web hosting service, get in touch with our support staff via phone, email, or live chat, which is open 24/7.
