What is a domain name?
It is the unique address on the web which represents one particular website.

A domain name is what you type in the address space of the browser to surf the internet. It can be the name of the business, or not. For instance, my website is "Website Designs by Pam Baumgardner, but my domain name is www.pambaumgardner.com. I also own www.pmswebsites.com and www.venturawebsitedesigner.com. All three domain names are directed to the same site. It draws in more traffic.
The point is, your domain name should somewhat represent who you are. Each domain name is unique in that no one else may own it. Domain names are purchased annually, and can be bought for several years at a time. If you choose to not renew your domain name, it can be bought by someone else.
We can purchase your domain name for you whereas a receipt will be sent to you as the owner of your domain name.

What is website hosting?
