Domain Names and IP Addresses

The first step in acquiring a domain host is to register a domain name. Domain names are regulated and maintained by domain name registrars, which ensure that domain names are not repeated. The actual domain name registration can be done directly through the registrar but most likely will be done by a third party like your hosting service. Domain names are easily readable by people, but for computers to understand them, domain names have to be linked to binary IP addresses through special servers called domain name servers (DNS). This system allows for a domain name to be transferred to another server should the webmaster decide to use a different host.
