DomainsDomains are the physical space in which something exists. Website domains however are virtual, although they are very important when it comes to the amount of hits that your webpage receives. A lot of website domains are very highly saught after .com being the most expensive. Domains are usually hosted on a server that is owned by the people you rent the domain name off. There are many free spaces available on the web but most of these have domains like .tk or otherwise. To really achieve high rankings on google (which is where extra revenue and page hits come from) it is important to have use domains which directly reflect the quality of work you do. .co.uk and .com are seen as the most respectable for businesses where as .org is for organizations such as schools, charities and government organizations. The main use of domain names is to make it easy for users and applications to find websites easily. Effectively it is a mask for an IP address which would be solely numerical otherwise and gives this numerical address, in affect a new IP address. This is useful when it comes to advertising, as it is much easier to remember words than it is to remember a string or numbers! Lift.co.uk
