In the context of computer technology and the internet, a domain refers to a specific and unique string of characters that represents a website or network's address. It typically consists of two components: the domain name and the top-level domain (TLD). The domain name represents the specific name given to a website or network, while the TLD represents the category or type of website or network (e.g., .com, .org, .net, .edu). Together, the domain name and TLD create a unique address that is used to access websites on the internet.
