What You Will Need To Start
There are only two things that you really need:-
1. A Domain Name
2. A Web Host
A DOMAIN NAME is a name that identifies one or more IP addresses. Like for example, the domain name microsoft.com represents about a dozen IP addresses. Domain names are used in URLs to identify particular Web pages. For example, in the URL http://www.yoursite.com/index.html, the domain name is yoursite.com.
Every domain name has a suffix that indicates which top level domain (TLD) it belongs to. There are only a limited number of such domains. For example:
· gov - Government agencies
· edu - Educational institutions
· org - Organizations (nonprofit)
· mil - Military
· com - commercial business
· net - Network organizations
· ph – Philippines
Basically what happens is when you type a web address into the address bar of your browser and then hit Go, your browser sends out a request to 'get' that web page. The request travels across the internet to the appropriate web server and attempts to locate the web page on that server. If the request is successful (web page exists) then that web page will load (or download) into your web browser.
