What Is A Domain Name?

[Wiztechplc]

A domain name is a word along with a TLD that uniquely identifies your website.

Domain name is one of the underrated sections of a website, where in-between so many activities, it gets lost somewhere. People tend to decide a domain name for their business in a hurry without fully understanding the importance of it. Most of the time, its the brand or the company name followed by an extension, and thats it. Not only the domain name should explain about the company but it should have certain memorable trait so it can be caught easily by customers. Also not all domain names are equal as each domain name carries certain weight in itself. And that weight is further counted by the search engine (Google, Bing, Yahoo), as it ranks the website then accordingly. That itself is a huge factor while selecting a proper domain name.

A domain name is basically a website name which indicates your web address where Internet users can access your website.

[Servers Base]

Domain names serve to identify Internet resources, such as computers, networks, and services, with a text-based label that is easier to memorize than the numerical addresses used in the Internet protocols. A domain name may represent entire collections of such resources or individual instances. Individual Internet host computers use domain names as host identifiers, also called host names. The term host name is also used for the leaf labels in the domain name system, usually without further subordinate domain name space.

A domain name is an Internet resource name that is universally understood by Web servers and online organizations and provides all pertinent destination information. To access an organization’s Web-based services, website users must know the precise domain name.

I'll add some words about the FQDN - today the domain name has reborn into a brand. Promoting your service, product or business you have to take in consderation your domain name. It's like your logo, like your visit card. When your client or your custumer sees your domain name he should have an association with you, with your product. Good when your FQDN is simple and catchy.

Yes, I completely agree with you.

A domain name is essentially your website’s equivalent of a physical address. In the same way that a GPS needs a street address or a zipcode to provide directions, a web browser needs a domain name to direct you to a website.

A domain name takes the form of two main elements. For example, the domain name Facebook.com consists of the website’s name (Facebook) and the domain name extension (.com).
