A host is any computer directly connected to a network that acts as a repository for services (such as e-mail, FTP, or World Wide Web) available for other computers on the network. A domain name is also called a Web address. A domain name is used as an address for your Web site and e-mail, just like www.janesbagels.com and orders@janesbagels.com. You can transfer to Network Solutions a domain name you may have already registered elsewhere. Once you register your domain name, you can point that domain name to your hosting account. |
