A Domain Name is a human-readable and memorable web address used to identify and access websites on the internet. Domain names serve as an alternative to numeric IP addresses, making it easier for users to navigate the web.
Domain names consist of two main parts: the second-level domain (SLD), which is unique to the website, and the top-level domain (TLD), which represents the category or origin of the site (e.g., .com, .org, .net). For example, in the domain name "example.com," "example" is the SLD, and ".com" is the TLD.
Domain names are registered through domain registrars and must be renewed periodically. They are essential for establishing an online presence and branding.
