The World Wide Web would become the entangled web if it wasn’t for the directory that keeps track of where each address is located! Just like how an old-fashioned phone book would provide phone numbers of locations of people and businesses, the Domain Name Service is a directory of IP addresses or numbers that identify and locate computers.
For example…
The IP address of bizversity.com is 118.88.24.13. As such, if you typed in bizversity.com in a browser’s address bar, the Domain Name Service would provide details on which computer connected to the Internet and can bring up the web page associated with that address.
