¿What
is a Domain Name?
On the Internet, a domain is part
of every network address. All devices
sharing a common part of an address,
or URL, are said to be in the same
domain. In the address

SEO - Search
Engine Optimizer
Short for
search engine optimization,
the process of increasing the amount
of visitors to a Web site by ranking
high in the search results of a search
engine. The higher a Web site ranks
in the results of a search, the greater
the chance that that site will be
visited by a user. It is common practice
for users to not click through pages
and pages of search results, so where
a site ranks in a search is essential
for directing more traffic toward
the site.
SEO helps to ensure that a site is
accessible to a search engine and
improves the chances that the site
will be found by the search engine.
