A lot of people wonder "What is a domain name?". Many
also question why it is necessary to get one. First of all, it's
very helpful to understand what it truly is. A domain name
is needed to replace number addresses which are used by
   the Internet with a name that is quicker to remember.
   Online, the IP (Internet Protocol) address is needed to
contact servers. The IP address contains four sets of three
numbers. That's very difficult for anyone to memorize. It's
a good deal simpler to associate that IP address by using a
   domain name instead. To illustrate, the domain name
google.com describes a group of several IP addresses that
  could sometimes change. However, the individual only
    would need to remember google.com to get to that
                           website.
It really is beneficial to understand how domain names
 operate when learning the answer to the question "What
  is a domain name?". There is an Internet protocol called
      DNS (Domain Name Service). Its task is to translate
 domain names into IP addresses. Whenever the network
      equipment route info all over the net, they'll use IP
addresses to find out ways to get a data packet from point
     A to point B. For instance, a web browser will send a
request to gain access to the google.com website. The DNS
    service on the computer sends a request to find the IP
 address. After the IP address is received, the browser will
     connect with the server using that address. If the IP
 address isn't known when the DNS services are down, it's
    impossible for your browser to contact the web page.
          That's why a domain name is so important.
An individual who wishes to open an online site is going to
  need a domain name. No one memorizes IP addresses,
and they are prone to change after some time. Luckily, it is
  very inexpensive to buy a domain name. The challenge
 will likely be finding one which has not yet already been
taken by someone else. But, including multiple words and
 dashes are good techniques to finding an unused domain
 name. The process to acquire a domain name for use on
 your own website is not hard for anyone who knows the
    basic fundamentals of "What is a domain name?".
You will find great companies on the market where you
  can get a domain name at a very reasonable price. The
             domain name regarding my website
    www.websitefordummies.info set me back a mere
$2.99/year. NameCheap is my personal favorite, but there
are numerous other great companies out there. Go Daddy,
   and Bluehost are great website hosts which also offer
domain names. Look at a handful of companies and select
           the one that best fits your preferences.
Individuals who can answer the question "What is a
   domain name?" will certainly have a lot easier time
  understanding how the world wide web works and the
ways to run a website. This is particularly useful any time
a website or pc internet browser is down. For instance, an
 educated user can figure out quickly whether it's a DNS
problem or not. That is why it's beneficial to discover how
                  a domain name works.
