What is a domain name?

You can see domain names everywhere on the internet, every website has one.

A few examples of domain names are google.com, cheesehosting.net and minecraft.net.

Domain names make it easier to search for a website. Without domain names, every website would have its own IP address, like 123.45.6.78.
It would be very difficult to search a website in this way.
Domain names are nowadays not only used for websites, but also for Minecraft servers have their own domain name in most cases.
In this way can players easy know which IP correspondents to which server.
