Domain Name
west.net is a Domain Name. The first part is who we are, the second part stands for commercial. Other common suffixes are .edu, .gov, and .org. (You can probably figure out what they stand for). You might also see a .fn, .ca, or an .it. These endings show that the site is hosted overseas (france, canada, italy, etc.) Domain Names are unique, and are registered through a governing organization called InterNIC. Some domain names are registered but not "active", that is, you can't visit them with your Web browser. Some businesses register their Domain Names so they can have an Internet e-mail address, but don't develop a real Web site. Other sites are just "under construction".
