Hi there. In this video, you’ll learn the difference between a domain and a website.



You can, however, register a domain and choose NOT to use it for a website or an email account BUT you can’t have a website or an email account without a domain.


So godaddy.com is the domain used for GoDaddy’s website.

Registering a domain, however, doesn’t automatically create a website — it only means that you’ve registered the domain.











The same is true for your domain — regardless of where you decided to host your website’s files, your domain remains yours for the duration of your registration.



Do you already have a domain name? Don’t just let it sit there; do something with it!
