Domain Names

 * See also: Domain name

Domain Names are the custom URL of the websites name displayed in the address bar of a browser. For example, Puzzle Pirates domain name is: puzzlepirates.com. Domain names are made up of 2 parts. Firstly you have a name relevant to the site, for our example it is puzzlepirates. You then have what is known as a Domain which is the end part of the Domain name. Again, using our example, the Domain is .com. There are many different domains, some domains are more expensive than others, for example: .co.cc is used as a free domain, where as, .com is one of the more expensive domains. Some domains, such as .gov is reserved and can only be used by Governments. Note: www stands for World Wide Web and does not need to be included (Nor is automatically included in the address bar of your browser or Domain).

Domain Registrars
Domain Registrars are services that allow you to register a domain name. Domain Registrars vary in prices and it may be best to look around when choosing a Domain.
