ISP, DNS and More…The Basics

Posted on October 22, 2010 by jennifera

Here is another one for all of you newbies. Just some basic information to help you understand the Internet.

What is an ISP? They are companies that give you an email address and access to the Internet.

What is a Web Hosting Service? This is a place that has one or many computers that store your website and make it available to the Internet. Your website is housed on a web server, which is basically a specialized computer.

What is an IP Address? Just as our homes have addresses to make it easy for our family and friends to find us, each machine on the Internet has a specific address. This is an IP address. It is represented by a series of numbers and dots.

For most of us, it is hard to remember a long series of numbers. It is easier to remember domain names, such as Google.com . Sometimes an IP address will change. Domain names work even if the server's numeric IP address changes. This is why we use domain names to represent the IP address of servers.

What is DNS? This stands for Domain Name Server. It is the central directory for the Internet. It directs traffic to the appropriate servers for the different functions of a domain, such as mail. DNS converts the domain name to the IP numbers so your computer can find the servers needed to display your website, blog or email. DNS ensures that people can find your website, etc.

For the Newbies

Are you new to Internet Marketing? Don't worry, IMTC can help you too! Even if you do not have any websites yet, we can offer training customized for you.

Let's talk about domain names. Should you have your own domain name? If you have your own domain name, you can move and be hosted anywhere around the world and people will still be able to find you through all of your promotional efforts.

Having your own domain name gives you greater credibility. Domains and hosting are so cheap, there is no excuse in not having your own.

Also, if you have a good domain name, you can sell it. The domain name can be a valuable entity for you in the future.

Should you avoid dashes in your domain name? Yes, search engines are smart and they do not need the words to be separated. Dashes could hurt you, someone will forget to type it in and they will end up at one of your competitor's sites.

See what you can learn at IMTC! Tom Antion is a master at Internet marketing and he has a way of explaining it in a simple, easy to understand format.

We look forward to hearing from you!
