What is a Domain Name?

A domain name is your address on the web. It's the information that customers type in to find your website. It's what comes after the www. in www.domain.com. The domain name for this site is thurunu.com.

A domain name can be any combination of letters and/or numbers up to 63 characters. The official domain name extensions are .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .us and .ws. There are also other extensions like .tv and .tk but don't waste your time with those. Stick with a recognized one.
