A URL is a substitute for IP addresses, which are difficult to remember. A URL can contain more information than just an IP address. It is a combination of the following elements: the protocol is the first part of the URL, which is identified as "http" or "https". After that comes the subdomain, if the website uses one. If you have "www" as part of your URL, you are using a subdomain. Next comes the domain name in order, which is the name of your website. Finally, we have the ccTLD or TLD. A ccTLD is a Country Code Top Level Domain. That means a domain targeted at a specific country — for example ".dk" or ".sp". Generic top level domains, however, called TLDs, are not targeted at a country — for example ".com" or ".net".
