Question
What is a domain name and what is our domain name?
Answer
Our domain name is UHV.
Technically, a domain name (Web address) is an addressing construct used for identifying and locating computers on the Internet. While computers use Internet Protocol (IP) numbers to locate each other on the Internet, people find them hard to remember. Therefore, domain names (Web addresses) were developed to permit the use of easily remembered words and phrases to identify Internet addresses. For example, the domain name (Web address) uhv.edu represents the UHV Web site. When you type uhv.edu into a Web browser or send e-mail to someone at uhv.edu, the Domain Name System (DNS) translates uhv.edu into the IP numbers used by the Internet and connects you to UHV.
