Internet
Internet names, also known as domain names, are unique identifiers used to access websites on the internet. These names are human-readable addresses that correspond to numerical IP addresses, making it easier for users to navigate the web without remembering complex numeric codes. A domain name consists of several parts: a top-level domain (TLD), such as .com, .org, or .net, and a second-level domain, which is the specific name chosen by the registrant, like "example" in example.com.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is the hierarchical and decentralized naming system that translates these domain names into IP addresses, allowing browsers to locate and retrieve websites. Domain names are registered through accredited registrars and must be unique within their TLD. They play a crucial role in branding, online identity, and navigation, providing a user-friendly way to access the vast resources available on the internet.
