URL (Uniform Resource Locator)

As every one of us have specific addresses to contact us, the same is true with the websites. There will be a unique address for each web resource which is called Uniform Resource Locator (URL).

Example: http://www.techstudentsworld.com: 80/computerbasics/overview.html

The basic URL contains the following:

Protocol: The protocol being used - http

Server Name: The name of the server which maps to an IP address –

www.techstudentsworld.com

Port: Generally we don’t specify the port number here because the default port for the web servers is 80 – here we didn’t specify as it is optional

Path Name: This specifies the path to the resource on this server- /computerbasics/

File Name (or) Resource: This is the actual resource requested like video, images, documents or HTML pages etc- overview.html
