Websites and Email addresses all use a domain name
The actual domain name is the bit after the www. for a website address or after the @ symbol in an email.
The domain name is owned by a registrant who is the legal owner of the unique name.
Think of it as a sort of telephone number to access the beginning of a website or homepage.
If you type www.easykey.net in the address bar of your internet browser and press the enter key on your keyboard it will take you to the homepage of easykey.
It is common for this address to automatically change after you do this action. This is because some website addresses forward you on to another address or sub address. Try www.officeupdate.com and watch what happens to the address in the address bar. Many companies arrange that different addresses will take you to the same website. (e.g. try www.easykey.co.uk )
If you own the domain name you can therefore have many email addresses e.g. admin@easykey.net sales@easykey.net training@easykey.net etc...
