The World Wide Web uses unique numbers identified as IP addresses and every unit or website that is a part of the Web contains this type of an address. It is pretty hard to remember to go to 123.123.123.123 to see a website though, because of this a significantly easier structure was introduced in the 1980s - domain names. Every domain name consists of a main part as well as an extension, for instance domain.com or domain.co.uk. A great number of extensions exist worldwide - some of them are given to countries, like .co.uk in the abovementioned example, which is assigned to the United Kingdom, while various others are generic, like .com or .net. Some extensions are available for registration by any kind of entity and some others have particular requirements - company registration, local presence, etc. You'll be able to acquire a brand new domain via a registrar organization such as ours and when the extension supports domain name transfers, you can relocate an existing domain between registrars as well.
