A domain name is the web address that users enter into their browser to access a website.
Domain names are also called URLs (Uniform Resource Locators).
Every domain name consists of two parts: the top-level domain and the second-level domain. The top-level domains are .com, .edu, .gov, etc., and the second-level domains are usually one of three types: country code top-level domains (.co.uk), generic top-level domains (.com), or sponsored top-level domains (e.g., .org).
A user enters a web address into their browser by typing in a web address like "www.google.com." This directs them to Google's website, which has its own unique web address that is different from other websites
Differences Between a Domain Name and a URL
A domain name is the identity of your website. It’s the word or phrase that people type into their browser to find your site. A URL is an address that people type into their browser to find your site.
