Are they both the same? domainname.com is the actual domain. By purchasing it, you can make as many names (www.domainname.com) and subdomains (poptart.office.domainname.com) as you want. > >Because, some websites can only be accessed via http://domainname.com >(e.g. http://x42.com), while most only work with www. Probably because the dns admins never added www to their dns records.
