Just as a book has many pages; a Website is a collection of web pages related to the same topic. A Web page can be compared to a page in a book and is the basic unit of every Web site or document. A Web page can be an article, an ordering page, or a single paragraph, and it is usually a combination of text and graphics. You might know about some Websites such as www.discovery.com, www.yahoo.com, etc. Each Website has a Web address on the Internet. This is also called the URL or Uniform Resource Locator. Examples of web addresses are www.hotmail.com and www.cricket.org. The first page of any website is called its Homepage. Each Web site is owned and updated by an individual, company or organization. The Web is a dynamically moving and changing entity and many Web sites change on a daily or even hourly basis.
