The World Wide Web uses unique numbers known as IP addresses and every unit or website that is a part of the Web features this type of an address. It really is pretty hard to remember to visit 123.123.123.123 to load a website though, so a significantly quicker system was made in the eighties - domain names. Each domain features a main part as well as an extension, to give an example domain.com or domain.co.uk. Various extensions exist globally - some of them are given to countries, just like .co.uk in the abovementioned example, which is given to the United Kingdom, while others are generic, such as .com or .net. A number of extensions are available for registration by every entity and some others have precise requirements - company registration, regional presence, etcetera. You can obtain a new domain through a registrar organization such as ours and if the extension supports transfers, you'll be able to shift an existing domain between registrars as well.
