The World Wide Web uses unique numbers identified as IP addresses and every device or web site that is part of the Web contains this type of an address. It really is very hard to remember to visit 123.123.123.123 to load a website though, so a significantly quicker system was introduced in the 1980s - domains. Each and every domain name features a main part and an extension, for instance domain.com or domain.co.uk. A large number of extensions exist globally - some of them are given to countries, just like .co.uk in the abovementioned example, which is assigned to the United Kingdom, while many others are generic, like .com or .net. Various extensions are available for registration by every entity and others have precise requirements - company registration, local presence, and so on. You can get a brand new domain name from a registrar company such as ours and if the extension supports domain name transfers, you can shift an existing domain name between registrars too.
