Domain name or domain is the address and name of a website on the Internet. A domain is always unique in its domain zone and must reflect the specifics of the site itself. The domain is written in the following form: "domain_name.domain_zone". To find out the domain of your site, just look at the address bar in your browser.
Instructions
Step 1
However, remember that things are not really that simple. The addresses of all computers on the Internet are recorded using special combinations of 4-12 digits. This is the IP address of the computer. This combination is divided into four groups of 1-3 digits. Such an address will look something like this: 255.120.16.0. Each site has its own combination and so that it does not need to be memorized, domain names were invented.
Step 2
Remember that only one site can be located at one address, just as a computer cannot have several IP addresses at the same time. If you are considering a domain from the point of view of a professional, then know that it is the zone in which the site is located, or the category to which it belongs. You will see the domain zone after the dot in the site address. Remember that each zone indicates the site belongs to a category or territory. For example, the. RU domain or the. РФ domain, which, by the way, appeared quite recently and became the first Russian domain, indicate that the site belongs to the Russian Federation. The. US domain refers to the United States and English,. DE refers to Germany,. AT refers to Austria,. UA refers to Ukraine,. UK refers to the United Kingdom. For a complete list of country code domains, go to Wikipedia or another reference site and find the domain you are interested in and its meaning.
Step 3
Remember also that some domains indicate the type of organization:. ORG - non-profit organizations,. EDU - educational and university sites,. COM - commercial organizations,. GOV - government organizations,. BIZ - business,. TV - television, etc. P. Therefore, make sure that the domain of your site corresponds to the selected category, otherwise, by going to it, users will receive completely different information that they expect. In addition, remember about the existence of the. NET domain zone, which at the moment remains the most visited and includes any location and category of web pages.
