A domain is a user-friendly and unique web address which you'll be able to obtain for your site. It routes a numeric IP address that is employed to identify sites and devices on the World Wide Web and it's rather easy to remember or distribute. Every domain includes 2 parts - the particular name that you choose and its extension. For instance, in domain.com, “domain” is termed Second-Level Domain and it is the part you can choose, whereas “.com” is the extension, which is also referred to as Top-Level Domain (TLD). You will be able to purchase your new domain through any accredited registrar organization or move an active one between registrars when the extension allows this option. This type of a transfer does not change the ownership of a domain name; the one thing that changes is where you can manage that domain name. The vast majority of the domain extensions are open for registration by every entity, but a number of country-code extensions have specific conditions like regional presence or a current business registration.
