What is a domain name ?
A domain name is a name that allows others on the Internet to find your web site easily. Simply put, a domain name is something.com, or something.net and so on. After registering your domain name you can start to take advantage of email using your new domain. For example, you can start sending and receiving email at “yourname@yourdomain.com”. No longer will you have to look unprofessional using that free email address which came standard from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Registering a domain name distinguishes yourself or your business from others on the Internet.
A domain name is a unique address used for email and web sites on the Internet. It is made up of a name of your choice (eg xyz), and a domain suffix of your choice (eg .co.uk). The domain name can only contain letters, numbers and hyphens. It is generally advisable to choose a domain name that is short, snappy and easy to remember. An example of a domain name would therefore be xyz.co.uk. This can then be used to create an email address eg yourname@xyz.co.uk and a web site eg www.xyz.co.
