What is a Domain?

www.dictionary.reference.com says that a domain is: “a group of computers and devices on a network that are administered under the same protocol” or, “the top level in a name, indicating the type of organization, geographical location, or both, and officially designated in the suffix, as .com for commercial enterprises in the U.S.”

There are two components of a domain: the entire domain name (e.g. www.swiftweb.co.ke) and the latter part, the suffix (.co.ke), which also determines which top level domain (TLD) the particular suffix belongs to.

Initially, there existed only a limited number of TLDs , some that you may have come across,  others, perhaps not.

For instance, we at Swift Web Technologies can provide the following suffixes in Kenya:
.com; .net; .org; .biz; .go.ke; .ac.ke; .sc.ke; .info.ke; .me.ke; .mobi.ke; .co.ke; .ne.ke; .or.ke.

There is an article on our blog that might help you understand the concept of a domain better.
