What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is an identification string that defines a realm of administrative autonomy, authority or control within the Internet. Domain names are used in various networking contexts and for application-specific naming and addressing purposes. In general, a domain name identifies a network domain, or it represents an Internet Protocol (IP) resource, such as a personal computer used to access the Internet, a server computer hosting a web site, or the web site itself or any other service communicated via the Internet.

Domain names are controlled by Domain Registrars. A domain name registrar is a company that manages the reservation of Internet domain names. These companies charge customers yearly fee’s for each domain you purchase. The cost is set by the registrars and depends on which serves you choose to purchase. If the domain name isn’t already purchased you can search and buy them from companies like Godaddy.

Domain Security

If your a professional company your domain needs to be served securely by https (SSL Certificate).

Http is insecure. Https creates a secure connection that is encrypted so devices can transfer sensitive information safely without hackers intercepting the information. Currently if your website is not serving your domain by https then your search engine ranking suffers. Companies like Google will penalize companies for not using SSL Certificates. We offer SSL certificates for all websites we create. If you selling items on your website it is mandatory to have at least a SSL Certificate.
