What is a domain name and where can I get one?
When developing a website, a good domain name is an important key to the success of a website and business. A domain name is an easy and accessible name that is associated with a physical IP address on the internet. In simple terms, a domain name is like a nametag for your website. Without a domain name, the website is not accessible without the IP address, which is the series of 12 numbers that identifies a device of the Internet network.
The domain name is the distinctive number that comes after the www. and contains the name of the company or business. The domain name makes a website easier to find and search, which helps bring more traffic to a site. Anyone can own a domain name by going to a domain host or registrar, and paying an annual fee. If someone else sets up your website for you, it is still possible to go to a website and find where your domain is hosted.
Here is our short list of some websites that can guide you through the process of purchasing your domain name.
