What is a domain name?

A domain name is a fully unique identifier for an internet site; a domain name contains two or more parts separated by dots, such as "yoursite.com.” The portion before the dot identifies the unique name of your site, while the second part identifies its origin or type -- for example, ".com" is a commercial site, while ".us" is a site in U.S.
