What is a Domain?
Saturday, May 14, 2011
To create a website or blog, you will need a domain. What is domain? In general, domain means a place or territory, or area under control, and so is it on the Internet. You need a place at where your website or blog would be established.
A domain is unique by its name that one domain only belongs to one owner. So, if one domain name has been used by one person all over the world, the domain name cannot be used again by anyone else all over the world. The term domain name only refers to Domain in the daily practice and usage. The examples of domain: howtoinblogger.com, blogspottutorial.com, life4biz.com.
The extensions make domain different, which usually means the purpose or goal of the website or blog, e.g.
- .com ( read; dot com ): for commercial websites
- .org : for organization websites
- .info : for websites that contain information
- .biz : for business websites
- .gov : for governmental websites
- etc
However, now domains often don’t define an identity. Often, domain with .org is used for personal website or blog, not for an organization. Domain with .info is often used for commercial websites, not for information websites.
Domain can be bought at domain providers or sellers, e.g. name.com, godaddy.com, and more. Need to know that domain name is not permanent, but you buy it for a certain period, one year, two year, and so on, which is based on yearly hiring contract.
