A domain (or domain name) is a unique website address on the internet that people use to access web pages. It serves as a convenient alternative to the numeric IP address of the server where the website is hosted.
Example:
In the address navjucloud.tj
This domain name fully identifies a specific website.
It consists of two main parts:
— navjucloud — the website name (second-level domain)
— .tj — the top-level domain, representing Tajikistan
When you type navjucloud.tj into your browser, the Domain Name System (DNS) finds the corresponding server and opens the desired website.
Thus, a domain is like a name in the internet address book: it’s easy to remember and indicates where the information you need is located.
