Hope you are signed up, introduced and enjoying yourself on Web Wise Forum!
Just to give you a heads up, we run a domain name glossary. This should identify any terms that you have been confused about while researching your domain names.
To give you an example of some of the more common terms:
DNS - Domain Name System. The system via which all domain names are directed to IP addresses. This system allows URLs to work. Without it you would be remembering an awful lot of numbers!
ICANN - Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers - ICANN coordinate unique addresses across the Internet, from IP Addresses to Domain Names. They coordinate the Domain Name System (DNS), Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, Generic Top-Level Domains and Country Code Top-Level Domains. They are the highest authority in the domain name industry.
WHOIS – A protocol to query the databases that hold all the registrant details of Domain Names, IP Addresses and Networks. This allows Domain Names tobe attributed to a certain person or organisation.
And there is plenty more where that came from!
We have already defined over 50 terms and we plan to keep this growing and up to date. Head over to the thread here and have a look around. Is there a term that you need defined? Are you not sure what that article you read was about. Post in the thread and one of us will get to it as soon as possible!
Let me remind you that the forum is crawled by impartial industry experts who are going to give you the perfect answer without any waffle. That's why our newest members are posting more and staying longer!
