What is the meaning of Domain in english?

Domain may REFER to any of the FOLLOWING:

1. When referring to an Internet address or name, a domain or domain name is the location of a website. For example, the domain name "google.com" points to the IP address "216.58.216.164". Generally, it's easier to remember a name rather than a long string of numbers. A domain name contains a maximum of sixty three characters, with one character minimum, and is entered after the protocol in the URL, as shown in the following example.

In our example of the "google.com" domain name, there are two parts of the domain name. First is "google," which is referred to as the SLD (second-level domain) and ".com," which is the TLD (top-level domain). See our top-level domain definition for further information on top level domains.

The first Internet domain name "symbolics.com" was registered by Symbolics, a Massachusetts computer company on March 15, 1985.
