What is a Domain Name?

Domain name is the uniform and unique name given to a website which is to be registered with a registrar. You can’t register a website under a domain name which is already exists. Your domain name should be unique and you should have to pay to keep it in you name, monthly, quarterly or annually until you own that domain name. This is often referred as url (uniform resource locator). E.g.: "www.yoursitename.com". Hint: Don’t choose "www.yourname.com" as your domain name. Choose a domain name with relevance to your site content.
