    What is domain registration?
    For Website Owners

    What is domain registration?

    Domain registration is the purchase of a domain name.

    Domain is the name you give to your website. A domain usually consists of two parts separated by dot.

    Domains are organised in levels:

    • First-level domain names are the top-level domains (TLD) (e.g., .com, .org);
    • Second-level domain (SLD) is text directly to the left of TLD (e.g., example.com);
    • Third-level domain is to the left of SLD, also called subdomain;
    • The levels separated by dot can also be fourth, fifth, and so on.

    Each website must have at least one domain. Without domain the website cannot be opened in browser.
