What is Domain Name and How does it work
An internet-useable address or combination of words or names is called a domain name. Your domain name is the string of characters that appears in web browsers after “www.” and in email addresses after the @sign.
Domain Name consists of 2 parts i.e top level domain (tld) and second level domain. For example, in “hostvento.com” the “.com” is known as top level domain. It can be country specific(.co.in, co.jp, co.uk, etc) and can be targeted as per geographic location. The second level domain is your actual name i.e “.hostvento” in this case. Your second level name can be upto 60 characters long and can be used with any country specificerg8ol;/’ tld’s.
How does it works ?
Each computer or server that is linked to the internet has an individual IP address (IP stands for internet protocol), which is made up of a unit set of numbers, such as 195.212.21.221. You need to know a computer’s IP address in order to connect to it over the internet. Because these IP addresses are difficult to remember, domain names are utilized instead. The IP address of your server, which is either located in a datacenter or connected to the internet, is where the domain name you type into the browser gets resolved.The domain name system (DNS) automatically converts the domain name typed into the browser into the appropriate IP address.
