>Websites are usually accessed by either typing in an IP address associated with a web hosting account or typing in a URL, which contains the domain name of a website. For example, Graph Paper Press’s IP address is in numerical form (12.34.567.89) while its domain name is in alphabetical form(www.graphpaperpress.com). Think of a domain name as an easy-to-read name tag which people may use in order to visit and view a website. In other words, consider web hosting to be a home and a domain name to be its address. In order to use Graph Paper Press themes, a domain name and a web hosting account are required.
