The World Wide Web is based on unique numbers called IP addresses and each unit or site that is part of the Web contains such an address. It is pretty difficult to remember to visit 123.123.123.123 to see a website though, because of this a much quicker system was introduced in the eighties - domain names. Every single domain consists of a main part and an extension, for example benznet.us or benznet.host. A great number of extensions exist globally - part of them are given to countries, for example .co.uk in the aforementioned example, which is assigned to the United Kingdom, while others are generic, like .com or .net. Some extensions are available for registration by any kind of entity and others have certain requirements - company registration, local presence, and so on. You are able to get a new domain name via a registrar company like ours and if the extension allows domain name transfers, you are able to shift an existing domain between registrars as well.
