Name A domain name is a unique name used to identify and locate computers on the Internet. A domain name provides an easy-to-remember Internet address, which computers translate into numeric IP (Internet Protocol) addresses used by the Internet. An IP address like 216.205.67.185 is good for computers but difficult for humans to remember. But humans can easily remember a domain name like englishclub.com in http://www.englishclub.com. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Top Level Domain Name Top-level domain is the last part of a domain name. In englishclub.com, ".com" is the top-level domain. In englishclub.org.uk, ".uk" is the top-level domain. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Generic top-level domains? The multi-letter top-level domains (like .COM, .NET, .ORG etc) are called generic top-level domains (gTLDs)Domain name selection and registration - Selecting a domain name that includes keywords improves search engine ranking. Registration can be done through our site. If you already have a domain name, but would like to switch web hosts, please include all the necessary information to change the DNS so the name will point to the new location of your files. |
