A domain name
uniquely identifies a website. Typing a domain name (also called
a URL) into your browser allows you to visit that site.
One unique domain name can be used as a company's web address and
for its email addresses.
Domains are much more than just names typed into a web browser.
Your domain name is how the world will think of you and your
business. It's part of your brand and your marketing plan. You
can have multiple domains that each relate to some aspect of your
business. A domain can be easy to remember and help establish you

can often create multiple email addresses for each domain you
own, so that each member of your company has their own
address.
