- What is a website?
A website or web site (often
shortened to a site) is a collection of web pages, that is,
documents accessible via the World Wide Web on the Internet. A
website will often be the work of one person, one organization,
or on a particular topic, or have a particular purpose.
Many different sorts of sites exist on this extremely medium
(the internet) enabling users around the world to access
information on a large range of topics very easily. Sites
can be categorized in some general categories such as Corporate,
Business, Personal, Educational, Government related,
Organizational categories. Examples include many internet news

- URL - what does that mean?
A Uniform
Resource Locator, URL (pronounced as "earl" (SAMPA: [@rl]) or
spelled out), or web address, is a standardized address for some
resource (such as a document or image) on the Internet.
The URL was a fundamental innovation in creating the World
Wide Web. It combines into one simple address the four basic
items of information necessary to find a document anywhere on
the Internet:
- The protocol to use to communicate with that machine
- The machine or domain name to go to
- An open network port on the target machine connected to
some service
- The path or file name on that machine
A typical simple URL can look like:
http://www.pewast.com/faq.html

- What is a server?
A server in computing is:
- A computer software application that carries out some
task on behalf of users. This is usually divided into file
serving, allowing users to store and access files on a
common computer; and application serving, where the software
runs a computer program to carry out some task for the
users. This is the original meaning of the term. Web, mail,
and database servers are what most people access when using
the internet.
- The term is now also used to mean the physical computer
on which the software runs. Originally server software would
be located on a mainframe computer or minicomputer. These
have largely been replaced by computers built using a more
robust version of the microprocessor technology that is used
in personal computers, and the term "server" was adopted to
describe microprocessor-based machines designed for this
purpose.
