Summary
Domain names are internet addresses that help users identify the website operators and associated businesses.1 In contrast to Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, which are unique strings of numbers, domain names are typically familiar strings of letters and numbers easily visualized and memorized by internet users.2 Therefore, domain names make user navigation of the web more straightforward.
