The
first part of a web address is always ___Http___. This is the set of rules that
allows a computer to read a website. Sometimes it has the letter ‘s’ at the
end. The ‘s’ stands for ___Secure____. It is important to look for secure
websites when shopping or ___banking___.
__www___
is not always used now, but at one time this was standard in almost all web addresses. The next
part of the address is called the ___domain___ name. This is owned by the
organisation, examples of these are ___google___ and __manutd__.
The last part of the address can help us to
identify what kind of person or company owns the website. Some domain types
are: __.org__, which stands for organisation; ___.com___, which stands for
company; and__.net__, which stands for network of computers. If the site has
originated in France we would expect to see __.fr__ at the end of the address,
if from the UK we would expect to see __.uk__.
