Host and Domain relationship

In fact, these two categories can be completely independent or completely interconnected. Traditionally, hosting is the space your site sits on. When the user enters a domain name in the browser, the website information will be displayed. Without the user's domain, it is difficult to find the location of the data on the Internet, and there are no websites to be displayed without web hosting.

 

When you create a website and run it on a web hosting, you can point it to various domain names you are interested, and thus a website with multiple domain names Have in your possession. You can refer .com, .net, .org or any other top-level domain to a host.

 

As mentioned earlier, the domain is actually the name of the website. For example, the address www.web-art.co will be used to go to your domain. Now you need to have a public IP address to use this domain. For example, IP 87.247.179.70 And as you know, remembering this IP is generally difficult for users, so what users should do is point their domain names to this IP address. This way, by entering www.web-art.co and IP address, users will be redirected to exactly the same path that the site is related to.
