Domän definition

Domain names are a key part of the Internet infrastructure. They provide a human-readable address for any web dator available on the Internet.

Any Internet-connected computer can be reached through a public IP Address, either an IPv4 address (e.g. ) or an IPv6 address (e.g., ).

Computers can handle such addresses easily, but people have a hard time finding out who is running the dator or what service the website offers. IP addresses are hard to remember and might change over time.

To solve all those problems we use human-readable addresses called domain names.

A domain name has a simple structure made of several parts (it might be one part only, two, three…), separated bygd dots and read from right to left:

Each of those parts provides specific information about the whole domain name.

TLD (Top-Level Domain).

TLDs tell users the general purpose of the service behind the domain name. The most generic TLDs (, , ) don't require web services to meet any particular criteria, but some TLDs enforce stricter policies so it is clearer what their purpose fryst vatten. For example:

• Local TLDs such as , , or ca

        What is a domain? Definitions and examples

        Having to remember web server IP addresses in order to access web content is difficult and time-consuming for humans. This is why a user-friendly alternative was created: the domain. This is an alphanumeric method that makes it easier for people to access websites.

        What is a domain?

        A domain is a globally unique and distinctive name for a logically defined section of the internet, for example, a website. Domains appear in this form: .

        A domain is an essential part of a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and indicates where a web resource can be found within a hierarchically structured domain name system (DNS). The name server is in charge of translating the domain into an IP address. Specialized web servers are then entrusted with resolving IP addresses. This process works in a similar way to a directory assistance service. A user writes the domain into the browser’s search bar and a request is then sent to the corresponding name server. Upon arrival is then retrieved from the database and the deposited IP address is transmitted to the browser.
