If your website is your house, and your hosting is the land it sits on, then your domain name is the address people type into their GPS to find you.
Without a domain name, people would have to remember a string of complicated numbers called an IP Address (like 192.168.1.1) to visit your site. At Hovixa, we make it easy to secure a professional domain that represents your brand perfectly.
What Exactly is a Domain Name?
A domain name is a string of text that maps to an alphanumeric IP address used to access a website from client software. In simple terms, it is the name of your website.
- The Name: This is your brand (e.g., "Hovixa").
- The Extension (TLD): This is the ending, like .com, .net, or .org.
How It Works
When you enter a domain into your browser, it sends a request to a global network of servers called the Domain Name System (DNS). These servers look up the IP address associated with that name and point your browser to the right hosting server.
Why the Right Domain Matters
Your domain is your first impression. A good domain name should be:
- Short and Memorable: Avoid long strings of words or complicated spellings.
- Trustworthy: Most users still trust .com extensions above all others.
- Keyword-Friendly: Including a keyword like "host" or "tech" can help your SEO ranking.
