What is a Domain Name?

Domain names are now a primary part of internet infrastructure. Domain names are a string of alphanumeric combination which refers to the physical IP address of your website on the internet. It is of course a unique name, the human-readable and easy-to-remember string that reflects the genre of your website. It is used to locate the specific computer, network, and service you are trying to connect. It is the best way to brand your business through advertisements of your domain name. Domain names are a very important marketing tool in today’s digital world. Make sure that your domain should reflect the niche of your website and can be easily memorable. A domain can be considered good if it increases the website’s credibility and catches more traffic toward itself

Structure of Domain Name

The structure of a domain name consists of 2 parts. They are

  1. Domain name (eg: the name of a website for example google)
  2. A top-level domain, TLD (eg: .com, .net, .edu, .gov, .ae)

The whole part is called the root domain because that is the basic part that exactly fetches your website. It is unique as well.

Domain Name Registration and Management

Domains are first needed to be registered to become operational over the internet. You have to register your domain from an authentic service provider. Usually, web hosting service providers often offer you a free domain if you purchase a hosting plan from them. But you have to first check if your suggested domain name is available or already occupied. After that, find a suitable plus feasible registrar which ensures the security of your domain name.

The whole registration process is overlooked by Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). They have the authority in maintaining the database of the registration process along with the domains that have been already registered.

Securing a Domain

It is beneficial to secure your domain before going live on the internet. Cyber crimes are always a threat in every era. So you should keep your domain secure and intact before any bad experience.

Basically, there are two vulnerable attacks:

  • Phishing attacks: Phishing attacks are those in which you receive an email portraying them as a registrar to let you click on the given link so that they get access to your personal data.
  • Pharming attack: In this type of attack, the domain gets hijacked and the traffic of your website is redirected to somewhere else.

It is recommended that if you own a domain that consists of much of your data along with clients, you must overlook the renewals and security features after a required period of time. Keep in mind the following key points to protect your domain.

  • Stay vigilant for the registration hijackers.
  • Privacy must be protected.
  • Keep a check on WHOIS for errors.
  • Always mark the date on which your domain name is getting expired so that you can renew it before the deadline.
  • It is recommended to use a domain transfer lock.

Domain Name vs Web Hosting

People often gets confused between a domain name and web hosting. They consider it similar or some think that we don’t have to host our website if we registered our domain.

If we understand the difference from our daily life, we can say that the domain name is the number of our house while the web hosting is the actual house that the number is pointing to.

If you purchased only a domain, you only own the dummy of your website with no content on it. For the content of your website, you have to purchase web hosting.

They both can be purchased from the same provider as well as from two different providers also. But if you bought from two different companies, you have to point your domain by editing it in the DNS settings of your web hosting company.

Domain Name vs URL

Universal Resource Locator (URL) is the whole address to locate your files present on the internet.

The domain name is a part of a URL. A URL consists of the following parts:

  • Protocol/Resource type (eg:https://)
  • Sub-domain (eg: www.)
  • Domain name (eg: google)
  • Top-level domain, TLD (eg: .com, .pk, .ae)
  • Internal Page
  • Parameters

These all components make up a URL. They all are essential and play a vital role in fetching the correct address and landing the users on the right path.

Advance Use

Domains are essential in helping your website get ranked in the top ten charts. You can implement the SEO techniques in your domain as well as in your website text and images and can see a quick impact in trending your website organically. Backlinking is also a good strategy to get your website known.
