What is the difference between a domain name and a website?

It's easy to think a domain name and a website are the same. While they are closely connected, they are very different things. To simplify: a domain name, is the property address you lease; a website, on the other hand, is the physical building that is your house and where you place your furniture (your website content). 

What Is A Domain Name?

When you register a domain name, it gives you sole ownership and rights to that domain name for the term you have registered it.  

However, just because you have a domain name does not mean that you automatically have a website ready to show the world. To create and operate a website, you will need a domain name and website hosting. 

What Is A Website?

A website is a collection of web pages on the Internet, that lives on a certain domain name. You can create and host your website using our Easy Website Builder. We have 5 different tiers to choose from including a FREE starter website. For more information on our website packages click here
