    October 12, 2017
    What is a Domain? Domain name is a particular web address of a website like facebook.com. So we say that anything that comes after WWW. is called a Domain name. Necessarily, the name of a website must match with middle portion(WWW. yourwebsitename.com) of the domain name. Why is Domain name needed? Domain name is the most important part of a website and we don't even think of a website without a domain name. It has its own importance because to access a particular website one need to type the domain name in the address bar of the browser. Let us take an example, we all have lived in our own home, which has its own unique address i.e. house no. 4, 12/35, CityWalk street or whatever. So, to visit our home one must have our home address.

    What is a Domain name? and What is a Sub-Domain? -

    What is a Domain?

    Domain name is a particular web address of a website like facebook.com. So we say that anything that comes after WWW. is called a Domain name. Necessarily, the name of a website must match with middle portion(WWW. yourwebsitename.com) of the domain name.

    Why is Domain name needed?
    Domain name is the most important part of a website and we don't even think of a website without a domain name. It has its own importance because to access a particular website one need to type the domain name in the address bar of the browser. Let us take an example, we all have lived in our own home, which has its own unique address i.e. house no. 4, 12/35, CityWalk street or whatever. So, to visit our home one must have our home address. Have you heard of a house our flat without an address? If yes then you must be out of your mind or from another planet. Similarly, a website also must have a domain name or address. As you know that internet is a digital virtual world which is known as World Wide Web(WWW). In this world, there are millions of website and to visit a website one need to have its domain name. We put WWW. before a domain name(i.e. www.myweb.com) to say browser we want to visit a website having domain name my web in the virtual world WWW.

    The process of Working of a Domain name.

    If you have a good computer knowledge then you must be known about the fact that computer doesn't understand any human language and it completely works on its own language which is in numeric form i.e. 100.110.101.011.010… or may be something like this.


    In every domain name, there is an alternative address in a numeric string which is called IP address i.e. 192.1.128.1.1 and the computer server only understand the IP address associated with the domain name we entered into the browser.

    When you enter a particular domain name in the address bar of the browser, the browser first converts that domain name into an alternative IP address associated with that domain name. This is when the role of the server comes into action, the server finds that IP address on the World Wide Web(WWW) and if it is available then it collects all the data on that IP address and send it back to the browser and then the website is displayed on your browser.

    Can we use an IP address instead of a domain name?
    Yes, you can either browse a particular website with its IP address. But generally, everyone uses domain name because IP addresses are very complicated and confusing numeric string having uneven decimals intervals. It is very hard for one to remember IP addresses of more than one websites. On the other hand, domain names are directly related to website name such as Google have its domain name google.com.

    Domain name Vs Website

    Many people are still confused between these two terms. Both of these looks very much similar but they are far different from each other. Let me clear you, how it is?
    A website is a set of web pages on the World Wide Web(WWW) and a Website is opened only when someone browses it by typing its  Domain name. So you must be understood that the use of Domain name is just for browsing Website. For example, A house having an address. Here, a house is the website and its house address is the domain name.



    What is a Sub-domains?

    Sub-domains is another website in a particular website. Which has its own unique features and contents? It is like a separate and distinct room in a house i.e. Gym room. For example, Google has a domain google.com and sub-domains such as mail.google.com, drive.google.com, plus.google.com etc.

    It is all about the Domains and Sub-Domains and if you want to know anything else, Please! Comment below your questions and queries. Also read my other articles on blogging.
