What is a domain name?

Before you sign up for web hosting, you need to register a domain name. A domain name is much like a personalized license plate for your web site. There are IP addresses attached to hosting accounts (example: 205.245.190.21) While these are hard to remember - Domain names make it possible to replace these numbers with a personalized name or title. These domain names point to your web hosting account IP address making it possible to type in your domain name to view your web site.

Examples of a domain name would be www.myonlinebusiness.com, but not all domain names have to end with a ".com". Currently there are many extensions available - .com, .net, .org, .us, .cc, .biz, .info. Click here to see the list of all available extensions.

What is Web Hosting?

In order for a website to be available on the web, it must be housed on a web server. Web hosts provide space on their servers to store website files and cgi scripts. Procom offers all server platforms which include Unix, Windows NT, and Cobalt for any type of hosting needs.
