WHAT IS A DOMAIN NAME?

A domain name is the last two parts of an Internet address. For instance, if you look at the URL for this page, you'll see it begins with www.quick-host.com. Our domain name is quick-host.com. The "www" part tells the server the machine from which we'd like to retrieve our information. Although "www" is the most common precursor, you will see others, such as home.netscape.com, or sites with no precursor at all, such as webcrawler.com. The domain name is unique and can give your company or organization an identity on the Internet. You can use this name for your website and for email. Only you will be able to use this domain name. For your website, the domain name will take the form of "www.yourname.com". Your full web address will be: http://www.yourname.com For email, the domain name will take the form of "johndoe@yourname.com", or "info@yourname.com".
