Every website on the internet actually lives at a numeric address (an IP address). Domain names exist purely so humans don't have to remember those numbers.
Take noxel360.com: "noxel360" is the actual name, and ".com" is the TLD (top-level domain). Common TLDs include .com, .org, .net, country-specific ones like .ca or .uk, and newer options like .io or .ai.
The very first domain name ever registered, symbolics.com, was registered in 1985 and is still active today — now owned as a piece of internet history.
Domain names are registered, not purchased outright — typically for one to ten years, through a registrar (Namecheap, GoDaddy, Google Domains). If a renewal is missed, the domain becomes available again for anyone else.
You need both, purchased separately or together, then connected — the domain configured to point to wherever the hosting lives.

A prefix added to a domain, like blog.noxel360.com, used to organize separate sections or services under one main domain.
Typically $10-20 per year for common TLDs, though premium or short names can cost significantly more.
Yes, domains can be transferred between registrars, usually requiring an unlock code and a short waiting period.
It's typically gone — the new owner has full rights to it, which is why tracking renewal dates matters for important domains.
