A domain is a user-friendly and unique website address that you're able to obtain for your website. It maps a numeric IP address that is applied to identify sites as well as devices on the Web and it's easier to remember or share. Each domain name includes two separate parts - the particular name that you choose plus the extension. For example, in domain.com, “domain” is referred to as Second-Level Domain and it is the part you're able to pick, while “.com” is the extension, that is identified as Top-Level Domain (TLD). You are able to buy a new domain via any accredited registrar organization or transfer an active one between registrars in case the extension can support this option. This kind of a transfer doesn't change the possession of a domain name; the thing that changes is the place where you are able to take care of that domain name. The vast majority of the domain name extensions are open for registration by every entity, but various country-code extensions have certain conditions like local presence or an active company registration.
