A domain is a unique address that you can buy through a registrar company. All the devices that are linked to the Internet, including web servers, possess numeric addresses, or IP addresses, which are quite difficult to remember, for that reason the domain platform was created as an easy way to identify a site on the World Wide Web. By result of this, your website can be reached at www.domain.com instead of 123.123.123.123, for instance. A domain name includes 2 different parts - the Second-Level Domain, that is the actual website name that you can choose, plus the Top-Level Domain, that is the extension - .com, .net, .org and so on. You'll be able to register a new domain from any type of registrar or move an existing domain between registrars in just a few simple steps. In the event that you choose to do the latter, your domain will be renewed instantly by the gaining registrar right after the transfer process has been completed. In addition to the generic Top-Level Domains, there're country-code ones too. Some of them can be registered by anybody, while others will require local presence or even a business license.
