Question: What is a domain name?

Answer by BestHost Ratings

A Domain name is the name of your site. It is what a visitor will type in his/her browser to get to your site. For example our site domain name is "BestHostRatings.com". You will need to register a domain name for your site. Most web hosting companies will do that along with their hosting package. However, we do recommend registering your domain name with a separate domain name registrar company.
