DNS or Domain Name System

Domain Names are an important tool in your online marketing arsenal. They make your website easy to remember and offer the repetition that assists with sales. Your Plan B Company offers domain name registration along with their Web Design Services.

Your domain name (yourname.com) is the core of your Internet identity, your online brand. Your customers will remember this name and use it to find your website, your products or your services. No two parties can ever hold the same domain name (yourname.com) simultaneously.

Technically, a domain name (yourname.com) is an addressing construct used for identifying and locating computers on the Internet. While computers use Internet Protocol (IP) numbers to locate each other on the Internet, people find them hard to remember. Therefore, domain names (yourname.com) were developed to permit the use of easily remembered words and phrases to identify Internet addresses.

For example, the domain name (yourname.com) yourplanb.com represents one of Your Plan B Company's sites. When you type yourplanb.com into a web browser or send e-mail to someone at yourplanb.com, the Domain Name System (DNS) translates yourplanb.com into the IP numbers used by the Internet and connects you to one of our sites.

You can have multiple domain names for your website.
For example: www.awaytravelgear.com and theamiciway.com both direct users to one website about elegant solutions for women traveling in today's world (A-Way Travel Gear).
