What Is A Domain Name

A domain name is a word or word sequences that are entered into the address bar of an internet navigator to visit a particular website. In simple terms, a domain name is an online identity of a web owner. A domain name helps to translate IP addresses to words. A domain name is a name that identifies one or more IP addresses, for instance the domain name google.com represents about a dozen IP addresses. Internet is based on IP addresses, not domain names, so every Web server requires a Domain Name System (DNS) server to translate domain names into IP addresses. Domain Name System stores and associates many types of information with domain names and helps to translate domain names to IP addresses.
