What is domain name and hosting?

Domain Name : Domain name is the identity of  IP addresses. Because human cannot remember digits easily so expert created term Domain names which directly map the IP address (digits) to alphabets. For example xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/site1/index.html is equal to www.site1.com. In this case we can easily remember www.site1.com instead of IP address.

Hosting Space or Web space : Web space is a server ( computer) where we upload our website files. You can take this space from any hosting company as per your need and upload your files on this space. This space is much like as a your car parking space, you can pay rent for this car parking space or you can buy your own car parking space.
