- Internet. The largest network of interconnected computing devices that use the Internet protocol suite, TCP/IP, to link the devices globally.
- Mobile app (mobile application or, simply, an app) is an end-user application that is designed to run on a mobile device. Mobile apps often stand in contrast to web applications which run in mobile web browsers rather than directly on the mobile device. Mobile apps often refer those applications as web versions.
- World Wide Web (WWW, www). The part of the Internet that contains inter-linked hypertext documents, especially webpages, and web applications. The web resources are identified by Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) and accessible via the web browsers. The other parts of the Internet include email, VoIP telephony, and file exchange.
- Web browser. Any end-user application that allows for browsing web documents published at the World Wide Web. To request the Browser display some website, a user enters into the Browser the website's hostname. Then, the Browser utilizes DNS to locate the sought website in the World Wide Web and to get its landing page's web document in order to display this webpage in the Browser.
- URL. The acronym for Uniform Resource Locator. A reference to a web resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it. URLs consist of two mandatory fields, (a) type of resource such as
https
for webpages,ftps
for file transfers,mailto
for emails, etc., and (b) hostname, as well as of optional (c) one or more submomains and (d) a file name, if any. - Web search engine (Internet search engine). A software system that is designed to search the World Wide Web for particular information specified in a textual web search query.
- URL. The acronym for Uniform Resource Locator. A reference to a web resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it. URLs consist of two mandatory fields, (a) type of resource such as
- Website. A collection of webpages that are located at the same hostname.
- Landing page. A single webpage that welcomes a visitor to the website to which the Page belongs. The Page casually returns in response to user's clicking on a search result delivered by a web search engine, marketing promotion, marketing email, or an online advertisement, as well as typing the website's hostname into web browser's address bar.
- DNS. The acronym for Domain Name System. Originally created for name mapping, DNS today also defines technical settings for its core mapping service. In addition, DNS is used to set up functionality for the emails using DNS record such as MX and TXT records.
- Hostname (domain name). A humanly readable label or alias that is assigned to a particular IP address or another identification for a host device that is a part of the Internet or another computing network.
- Subdomain (local hostname). In the DNS, a domain that is a part of another domain.
