The definition of domain name is a label that identifies a network domain: a distinct group of computers under a central administration or authority.

To help you to understand further, a domain name is your website’s equivalent of a physical address. In the same way that a satellite navigation needs a street address or a zip code to provide directions, a web browser needs a domain name to direct you to a website.
