Getting your own domain name is the first step towards establishing a presence on the internet whether for personal or business reasons.

Domain names, URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) or addresses are one of the basic building blocks in the functionality of the internet.  They are what point to specific information that resides on servers and computers all over the world that can be retrieved or connected to on request.

The easiest analogy is to think of the internet as one huge phone system, with one huge "phone book" for the whole thing.  When you enter a domain name, URL, or address, you are telling your computer to make a "call" to the "phone number" where that information is stored.  Your computer looks up the number from the "phone book," makes the "call" and makes the connection that connects you to your desired location.

The "phone book" is actually a network of domain registrars. These registrars contain the forwarding information ("phone number") for every domain name, URL and address on the internet.  This "phone number" could be to to any location you specify to the registrar.  It could be to a standalone server, leased server space, internet provider supplied web space, or a folder within already hosted space.

Regardless of where your site or information resides, getting yourself "listed" in the "phone book" or buying a domain name is the first step in establishing your own identity on the internet.  There are many vendors that supply domain registration services, some with basic hosting packages that allow you to create your own website, some with custom built websites and some that offer a mix of those.
