A domain name is unique, easy to remember address of a website. It is a combination of letters or numbers or both google.com or yahoo.com. You can buy a domain name from companies like Namecheap, GoDaddy, namesilo etc.
Every computer or a server has some unique name in form of strings of numbers which is called IP address. For example 172.16.122.204 is an IP address of a server. But it is really difficult task to remember these IP’s to access websites so that’s why DNS (Domain Name System) was made.
DNS works by translating domain names into IP addresses. When you type a domain name into a web browser, the browser sends a query to a DNS server. The DNS server then looks up the IP address associated with the domain name and returns it to the browser. The browser then uses the IP address to connect to the website.
