URL is Uniform Resource Locator whereas email is Address of Electronic Mail URL is the web address of a web page while email is used to send electronic messages to each other using computer networks. The email address is often used in lower case, while websites or web address are written in mixed letters. email is always used to receive electronic mails while web address is not used to receive any mails. A web address is used to access a website where information can be found while email is not used to get any information.
A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is used to identify any resource connected to the internet. The URL is the string of characters you see in your browser when you visit a website (e.g. http://www.coolexample.com). A domain name is one of the components of a URL. In the example above, the domain name is coolexample.com.
The domain name is a subset of the URL. For example in the URL http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Special:NewQuestions, the domain name is answers.com. The company hosting this site acquired rights to the answer.com domain, and can add any thing they need in front of it (like wiki. or www.) to make a sub-domain. After the .com/ is directory information pointing to the referenced file in the sub-domain. (And in this case :NewQuestions is a marker into the file).
The URL is the website address
EX.) http://www.Google.com The bold is a URL for Google
but the URL is translated into an ip address it is a lot easier to remember www.Google.com than a series of numbers and dots which is why urls were created...
URL: ==== The URL contains the name of the protocol to be used to access the file resource, a domain name that identifies a specific computer on the Internet, and a pathname, a hierarchical description that specifies the location of a file in that computer. On the Web (which uses the Hypertext Transfer Protocol, or HTTP), an example of a URL is: http://wiki.answers.com/.
email:
======
Email is simply the shortened form of electronic
mail, a protocol for receiving, sending and storing electronic
messages. Email has gained popularity with the spread of the Internet. In many cases, email has become the preferred method of communication.
Both of them is based on the ip address. we can get our own ip address from http://www.ip-details.com/
Website is the URL where you connect to, like your phone and your phone number.
I should say NO. Website is not the URL and the URL is not the website. A website is the stuff residing on a 'visible' computer/server (out on the internet). The URL is the nameand words for pointing at it from where you are. Details below.
1. A 'website' , is a collection of documents(text, images, sounds, databases, scientific data) tied together and grouped in one place (like on one or several server machines). You can think of it like a paper magazine, with multiples pages, topics, reviews, chronicles... or also as a library.
A website is an arrangement of documents relating to a subject or to several connected subjects, documents which are stored together, accessible by logical order, and viewable also through logical links (like Surfing to the next page, or choosing a page in an index or from a contents summary) .
Examples : a school's website ; the NASA website ,
a house builder's website for commercial purpose ;
a website hosting geographical data about a country.
a website for scientists to share their work among them.
2. The URL, ( Uniform Resource Locator ) is the website's name combined with documents'name (then location)within the website's subfolders hierarchy.
A URL is a sometimes complex string of caracters/letters/numbers that enables your browser software and the network to locate a distant fileserver (on which the website is hosted) and to retrieve the documents from it before displaying on your desktop. In fact, you could consider that the various caracters in the URL work a bit like the digits in a phone number.
Why 'web' ?
Originally, there were other ways of naming and searching documents hosted somewhere out on internet servers. They started speaking of a "web" because http (hypertext links) protocol enables a webmaster to tie together various documents from within one text or image to several other documents (through the link pointers).
Thus allowing you to transparently ''surf'' from one document to yet another, physically distant document belonging to another website. That creates a virtual 'web' of links between documents residing on different machines.
End of details ;-)
