Writer: Exponect.com Team

I wrote this blog post has been written to elucidate the key differences among website, blog, blogger, blogging and blog content with deep-dive explanation to remove the misconceptions present in the readers’ minds.

 

Meaning of Website:

Web = the World Wide Web (the internet)

Site = a place or location

 

So, "Website" literally means "a place on the web" or "a location on the internet where information is stored and accessed."

 

Website Definition:

A website is a collection of interconnected web pages, digital content, and resources stored on a web server, identified by a unique domain name, and accessible to internet users using a web browser. It serves as a digital location (online space) where information, services, products, communication, and data can be provided to visitors.

 

Domain vs Subdomain:

Domain can be sub-domain of blogger like exponect.blogspot.com

Or custom domain exponect.com.

Domain Extension:

Similarly domain can be different extension like .com .net , .pk, .site, etc.

In a domain name, .com is called a domain extension, top-level domain (TLD), or domain suffix.

 

Example:

Domain Name: google.com

google = Domain Name (second-level domain)

.com = Domain Extension (Top-Level Domain)

Definition:

A domain extension is the last part of a domain name that appears after the dot and helps identify the category, purpose, or geographic area of a website.

Examples:

 

.com = Commercial

.org = Organization

.net = Network

.edu = Education

.gov = Government

.pk = Pakistan

.uk = United Kingdom

 

So, in www.exponect.com, .com is the domain extension (TLD).
