in #blog7 years ago

Hello Guys today I am starting new Blog series on How to make a website when we talk about a website we mostly think about www.example.com or www.xyz.com
when we start Blogging & making our first blog one of the first decisions you will need to make is if you want to use a domain, subdomain, or a free option, such as blogger.com or wordpress.com
Let’s take a closer look on each parameter one by one.

Every website has it unique IP like but we can’t remember that easily a domain name is nothing but a textual version of the IP address, this is the number which points to a specific website, you can also visit this website by entering the IP address in a specific manner and you would get a brief idea about a domain name. For humans, it is suitable to remember the name (domain name) of a website than remembering this multiple-digit IP address such as 123.23.234.45. In addition, your website also gets your desired brand name called Domain Name.
i.e Domain name is an identification string that defines a realm of administrative autonomy, authority or control within the Internet. –
Wikipedia, so it’s all about Domain Name
There are Different Levels Of Domain Names are as Follows on the Basis of Thre Domain Extention.

𝟏. 𝐓𝐨𝐩-𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐝𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬
Most Commonly use like .Com .Net .org .edu .gov, etc

𝟐. 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝-𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐝𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬
Below the top-level domains in the domain name hierarchy are the second-level domain (SLD) names. These are the names directly to the left of .com, .net, and the other top-level domains. As an example, in the domain example.co.uk, co is the second-level domain.

we can register Domain Name on different Domain Registrar like NameCheap, GoDaddy, BigRock & More.
we need pay to acquire Top & Secondary level Domain.

A subdomain is a domain that is part of a larger domain. for example, west.example.com and east.example.com are subdomains of the example.com

we can make our own Subdomains from our Main Domains.

So that’s all about Domains & Subdomains

when we start our first Blog or we want to learn about how to make a blog, we mostly come to know about Subdomains mostly they offer Free to use their Subdomains with the CMS ( Content Management system) commonly Blogger.com, WordPress.com, wix.com, weebly.com, etc

All of this website provide Free Subdomains & Hosting for free to use so we can start using that for totally free ( They have Some premium features for paid subscriptions )

Most Famous is Blogger.com that is a cool product of Google which provides earnings options by advertising on a blog using Google Adsense, ( earncozy.blogspot.in )But we need to Work hard for that, we need to write Blogs & article on different topics that you selected for a blog.
second Most Popular Option is WordPress.com that provides same options like Blogger with much more complex options & more features, Good looks to your Blog.

What is self-hosted Professional Blog?

As Subdomains are part of Domains & Free Subdomain are not that much Good for Professional use due to lack of authority of using, Monetization options ( Ads & affiliate ) & fro Global Explorer. If you’re serious about blogging & want to make brand of it & your ready to spend so cash on installation & maintenance of your Blog then its Good option to go with top-level Domain or self-hosted Blogs

if you have Money & knowledge about following things we personally recommend that go with a self-hosted professional blog

  1. what is Domain name & DNS?
  2. What is hosting?
  3. How to host a website?
  4. CMS Or Coding Knowledge

So it’s clear that starting blog with Subdomain is Good, but when it’s come to your Branding self-hosted blogs are best in market,

Even I was started with free subdomain when I was new to Blogging, first I use to google Blogger.com then I shift to wordpress.com but I quickly realize that Branding is more important than money so I started this self-hosted professional Blog.

That’s all about a Difference between a Domain and a Subdomain.
