The URL in the address bar in your browser is comprised of several components. First is the protocol used to transfer the files from the web server to your web browser (commonly HTTP or HTTPS) next comes the domain name (which is itself comprised of several parts), followed by the directory path to the specific web page to be loaded. The part after the domain name might look like: /path/to/web/page

The domain name is comprised of several parts. The first is the top-level domain, for example .com, .net, .org, .us, etc. Next comes the second-level domain name, in our example above this would be "example" Second level-domain names come directly to the left of the top-level domain (the .com, .net, etc.). You can have third level-domains which come immediately to the left of a second level domain (in our example the "www" is a third-level domain). You can have fourth- and fifth-level domains and so on.
