A domain is an easy-to-remember and distinctive website address that you will be able to obtain for your site. It routes a numeric IP address that is applied to distinguish sites as well as units on the World Wide Web yet it's easier to remember or share. Every domain features two parts - the particular name that you choose and its extension. For example, in domain.com, “domain” is termed Second-Level Domain and it is the part you'll be able to select, while “.com” is the extension, that is identified as Top-Level Domain (TLD). You're able to buy a new domain via any certified registrar company or relocate an active one between registrars in case the extension supports this feature. Such a transfer doesn't change the ownership of a domain name; the one thing that changes is where you'll be able to take care of the domain. Most domain extensions are free for registration by all entities, but a number of country-code extensions have particular requirements such as local presence or an active company registration.
