What are we referring to when we say,  ‘your domain’?

When we reference ‘your domain’ we mean your website i.e. www.mywebsite.com


What is DNS?

DNS (Domain Name System) is a large group of servers that holds the information for where to find domains. (i.e. if your domain is a phone number, then a DNS is the phone book that can find your domain and everyone else’s.)


What is a nameserver?

Nameservers tell the internet where to find each domain/web address
