A URL is a special type of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), although sometimes these two terms are used interchangeably. In the majority web browsers, the URL of a web page is displayed above the page in an address bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A URL can be composed of words or an Internet Protocol (IP) address. Generally, users enter the name as they are easier to remember than numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The syntax of a full Web address is the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>scheme:\/\/prefix.domain:port\/path\/filename<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"explanation-3\">Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>scheme<\/td><td>Specifies the type of Internet service. http\/https is the most common.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>prefix<\/td><td>Specifies a domain prefix. www is the default for http.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>domain<\/td><td>Specifies the name of the Internet domain.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>port<\/td><td>Specifies the port number at the host. 80 is the default for http.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>path<\/td><td>Specifies a path at the server.
