What is a domain?
The domain (e.g., example.com) is the overarching structure that contains the subdomains (e.g., blog.example.com). For example, example.com
, google.com
and joturl.com
are domains.
What is a subdomain?
A subdomain is a domain that is part of a larger domain, for example, west.example.com
, go.link.example.com
and east.example.com
are subdomains of the example.com
domain.
What is a third level domain?
A third level domain is a specific subdomain that has only 3 parts. For example, west.example.com
, go.example.com
and east.example.com
are third level domains (and even subdomains) of the example.com
domain, but go.link.example.com
is a subdomain but it is not a third level domain as it has 4 parts (actually it is a fourth level domain).
