So the next time one of your relatives asks you what you’ve learned over the summer, you can pull out a tablet and write some python code as a neat party trick. This will also immediately label you as a tech-person of the family, so take that advice with a grain of salt.
In our blog, we will be focusing on education for the next few months. We welcome guest posts ( good quality articles ) that provide new perspectives or new information. If you would like to contribute to the Education Section of our blog, please contact us.

Easiest way, possibly, to understand a domain name is to have a look at your email address. Let’s see some examples of email address:
Example 1: john23@gmail.com
You notice the “gmail.com” that comes after the ‘@’ symbol? That’s a domain name. i.e. “gmail.com” is a domain name.
Example 2: john55@outlook.com.
Here, “outlook.com” is what comes after the “@” symbol. So, “outlook.com” is a domain name.
Example 3: mediarelations@london.ac.uk
Here, “london.ac.uk” is a domain name.
Example 4: dpo@icrc.org.
I suppose, you could already identify the domain name from the above email address.
If you want to have an online presence, first thing you need to do is to get a domain name. How to get a domain name or where to get one, we will get into that on another post. Hope, by now, you have a better understanding on what a domain name is.
