What is a Domain Name ?
A Domain Name is a textual version of an IP Address, the number that points to a particular website. For example, the number 206.190.60.37 is the IP Address for yahoo.com. Each domain name on the Internet corresponds to such numbers. Without domain names, each and every website would have to be recalled by a number like this, similar to the telephone system, but much more difficult to remember. For this reason, domain names were introduced, and have made navigation on the net much simpler.

Why do you need a Domain Name ?
Registering a domain name is the first and foremost step to start setting up an online identity. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is responsible for controlling IP (Internet Protocol) addresses and their associated domain names. It also maintains a list of domain name registrars. Domains are allotted on a first come first serve basis. Once a domain name has been registered, it is no longer available to anyone else until it expires automatically or is freed up by the registering authority.
