Web Tech Basics

DNS

The Domain Name System (i.e., DNS) is a decentralized naming database that identifies and translates internet domain names that are readable by humans into comprehensible IP addresses for machines that store the information called for by the browser.

Cookies

For a simple definition: Website cookies or HTTP cookies are small pieces of information that are stored on a user’s computer while they’re surfing the Web.

Domain Registrar

A domain name registrar is an organization authorized to create/register new domain names and renew the validity of existing domain names. The organization also ensures the transfer of the necessary information about the domain and its administrator to the Registry and does domain maintenance.

DNS Records

The domain name along with its corresponding IP address are referred to as a DNS record. Designated nameservers are responsible for storing DNS data—keeping everything functioning smoothly.

Web Address (URL)

A web address or uniform resource locator (URL) is the internet or intranet location of a website, file or database. Using a web address, users can visit a website, download a file or send an email.

Website Domain

It provides an intuitive interface for both beginners and experienced users to effectively manage various aspects of their sites, from posts and pages to user interactions and site appearance.

REST API

REST API is a way for websites and web applications to interact with a server. It is also called RESTful. The term consists of two abbreviations, which are deciphered as follows. An API (Application Programming Interface) is a code that allows two applications to communicate with each other, for example, a client application communicates to its server. REST (Representational State Transfer) is a way to create an API using the HTTP protocol.

WordPress Multisite

WordPress multisite is a feature by WordPress that allows users to manage multiple websites more efficiently from one dashboard. It acts as a network for all sites. If a person or business owns multiple websites, WordPress multisite allows them to log in to one WordPress dashboard and switch between any of the sites by using a dropdown menu.
