A domain name is the name of your website. It is also called the root URL (Uniform Resource Locator). An example is www.ipage.co.ke or google.com. A domain name has two main parts.

The home page is the first page that loads once a visitor types your website URL (uniform resource locator) on the address bar of the browser. an example is www.ipage.co.ke When you click on this link, the first page that you see is the home page.
A good website should have a nice,attractive and informative home page. On the home page be sure to capture the business that the website is design to promote online. A web designer should always consider publishing a summary of the entire website on the home page.
It should also contain a well displayed menu to link to other pages within the website. The menu is the general structure of the website and it contains leads to relevant informative pages within the website.
