The World Wide Web employs unique numbers identified as IP addresses and each unit or site that is a part of the Web has such an address. It is very hard to remember to go to 123.123.123.123 to see a website though, because of this a significantly simpler system was launched in the eighties - domain names. Each and every domain name consists of a primary part and an extension, for example domain.com or domain.co.uk. Many different extensions exist worldwide - part of them are given to countries, for example .co.uk in the abovementioned example, which is assigned to the United Kingdom, while various others are generic, for example .com or .net. Many extensions are available for registration by every entity and others have particular requirements - company registration, local presence, etc. You are able to get a new domain name from a registrar company such as ours and if the extension supports transfers, you can transfer an existing domain between registrars too.
