What are domain names? How do they work?

Description
  • IP address is the location of a website on the platform of Internet. It is like a phone number to the computer.
  • It is practically not feasible to remember the bunch of numbers and hence, domain names are implied for the websites for easy remembrance of their addresses.
  • Domain names contain alphanumeric characters and hyphens. The shorter domain names are always better because they can be easily remembered by people.
  • In order to get an IP address for a domain name, the NameServer used domain server needs to be used. There is a chain of servers through which you can reach to ultimate the destination website.
  • Domain registrar takes the request for IP address for directing towards your hosting provider’s nameservers.
