Understand the idea before the settings

Learn the relationship between the business name people remember and the services that host the website and email. A domain can stay the same while the service location changes.

Meet the registrar, DNS provider and website host as separate roles. Use fictional maps to recognize basic records without changing live DNS or buying a domain during the course.

Compare hosting responsibilities, understand previews and public releases, and ask for evidence that the correct address works after an update.

Finish with an understandable digital property record and continue into the separate email course for mail routing and sending identity.

Read prepared examples, choose a next step, and direct the work in ordinary language. No code writing, terminal commands, paid purchase, account connection, or live infrastructure change is required.
