A domain name is a unique address that you're able to purchase from a registrar company. All of the units which are connected to the World-Wide Web, including web servers, have numeric addresses, or IP addresses, which are quite difficult to remember, for this reason the domain platform was created as an easy means to recognize some website on the Internet. By result of this, your web site can be reached at www.domain.com rather than 123.123.123.123, for instance. A domain name has 2 separate parts - the Second-Level Domain, which is the actual website name that you can select, and the Top-Level Domain, which is the extension - .com, .net, .org and so on. You will be able to register your new domain name through any kind of registrar or migrate an existing domain name between registrars in just a few easy steps. If you choose to do the latter, your domain shall be renewed instantly by the gaining registrar the moment the transfer process has been finalized. Along with the universal Top-Level Domains, there're country-code ones too. Many of them can be registered by anybody, while some others need local presence or a business license.
