What is the difference between hosting and domains?

  1. Domain: A domain is like the address of your house. It's a unique name on the internet that people use to find your website, like www.example.com. Just like how every house has a distinct address, every website has a unique domain name.

  2. Hosting: Hosting, on the other hand, is like the actual house that sits at the address. It's a service that provides space on a server to store your website's files and data. When people enter your domain name in their browser, the hosting service serves your website's content to them.

So, in short, the domain is your website's address on the internet, while hosting is where your website 'lives' or is stored.
