[[https://www.IONOS.com/digitalguide/domains/domain-tips/what-is-a-domain/|Domain]] and web hosting usually cover related services, for example, one’s own domain. This is where the term domain hosting comes from.

When you opt for an IONOS [web hosting plan](/domains/domain-names "web hosting plan"), your domain is included with your hosting plan. A domain is the URL name by which your website can be found online, for example: “yourcompany.[com](/domains/com-domain "com"),” “yourname.[blog](/domains/blog-domain "blog")” or “yourdomain.[org](/domains/org-domain "org")”. Which extension you choose is up to you, but it might make sense to choose something that’s easy to remember. Register your [perfect domain](/domains/domain-names "perfect domain") today so you don’t miss out! Each domain is unique and available only once.
