A domain name is a human-readable web address that is used to identify a specific location on the internet. It serves as a way to easily remember and access websites, rather than using numerical IP addresses that computers use to identify each other on the internet.
A typical domain name consists of two parts: the actual name (such as "example") and the top-level domain (TLD) like ".com," ".org," ".net," or country code TLDs like ".uk" for the United Kingdom or ".jp" for Japan. Together, these parts form a complete domain name, like "techrotech.com."
For example, in the URL "https://www.techrotechhost.com," "www" is a subdomain, "techrotechhost" is the domain name, and ".com" is the top-level domain.
People register domain names through domain registrars, and they are leased on an annual basis. Domain names are essential for establishing an online presence, representing businesses, organizations, or individuals on the internet.
